Far-right ideologues have transformed American foreign policy into a tool of private gain and antidemocratic reaction.
Was there ever any doubt about this? Long before becoming president he had a lifetime of being a crook.
Irreversible damage at this point. The people who have established themselves as oligarchs will never lose that wealth or influence and their children will inherit the money and access to power. Continuing involvement in susceptible governments will ensure that no actual punishment occurs here or anywhere else. You get to save up for a wedding in the thousands while they get 6-figure private island weddings from literal enemies of the state without worrying about those pesky IRS rules on gifts from foreign agents because they’ve eliminated the possibility of IRS investigations indefinitely. How many murders do we think will go unpunished because of corruption? How brazen will they get when journalist body in a suitcase is the current accepted level?
The irreversible damage was caused long before Trump took office, the response to Nixon was the first assault on our democracy, perhaps a mortal wound when he was pardoned. It’s been ongoing since then, getting worse exponentially. NAFTA didn’t help Americans at all, response to 9-11 was horrifying, and Citizens United and Super PACs were the final nails in the the USA’s gigantic coffin.
Trump admin is the symptom of the disease; in a healthy, functioning republic he could never be a serious candidate. He was obviously unfit before he ever announced that he was going to run for office. He is for sale because the US government is for sale, and billionaires and corporations are buying what they are selling.
Never say never. Revolt may take a while, but it’s not infeasible.
Drain the swamp and fill it with Trump’s diaper content.
Sure. It’s MAGA doing that. MAGA made sure no one went to prison for the LIBOR. It was MAGA that made Obama bail out the banksters when they took advantage of the deregulation in the industry that MAGA forced Clinton to push through.
Honestly, I thought TDS was some bullshit, but it’s getting harder and harder to hold that position when the last 6 months I’ve seen more articles blaming MAGA for shit the US has been doing for decades than I’ve seen in my whole life.
MAGA is the cancer that neolibs like Obama refused to excise when they had the chance. Still fucking cancer though, dimwit.
Not saying Dems are great, almost all of our government is bought and paid for, but fuck you anyway for even standing next to a defense for MAGA. The corruption happening in this administration is unlike ANYTHING that has ever occured before and YOU would have to be moron to think any different.
I didn’t say MAGA wasn’t more corrupt. I said that MAGA wasn’t making the world safer for corruption because the Western international elite across all parties have been keeping the world safe for corruption for several centuries and we have egregious examples like international bankers literally colluding at the highest level to fix the LIBOR rate or the 2008 global financial crisis and who exactly was prosecuted?
The Western world was safe for corruption long before MAGA became a thing.

Show me an example of these articles.
Democrats suddenly care about ingidenous treaties when Trump violated them, but make no mention of that fact that there’s been a bi-partisan consensus for violating over 300 treaties with indigenous nations forever?
Selective outrage is probably the weaker form of the claim of TDS, but honestly the fact that people don’t even think they’re being hypocritical or that people won’t notice is deranged
That’s your best? Go away
Shoe fits, ya gotta curb stomp a nazi maga
