Spend a solid week posting screenshots of my comments on this platform about how the DNC is digging their own grave after they inevitably blame the voters for their loss just like in 2016.
you blame people who a) voted for trump or b) didn’t vote for Biden. simple as that.
you want to blame the DNC because you voted for Trump/didn’t vote for Biden? yeah, nah.
So I just barely make it into the classes that do well under trump, but I’m very worried as the social safety net is falling apart for most americans, and that republican rule only speeds that problem. I’m going to be trying to strengthen resources that help people trying to make it to self-sufficiency, but I can’t overcome the typical american attitude of “I’ve failed because I need help.” I guess the best plan for most people is to take care of those around them, be moral and resist bad policy by quiet lack of compliance, and try to help good people get out of bad parts of the country so they collapse all the sooner.
make it to self-sufficiency
If a traffic accident can bankrupt you, unfortunately you’re still at-risk.
Panic
Not sure. But my partner and I have an out, we will probably move to their home country and start a new life there if need be. It’s kind of hard to determine when the right time to leave is.
If things get very, very bad, this will be our plan as well.
Find new loopholes to exploit. Adapt and overcome. Possibly buy some some snacks.
Let’s talk about these snacks
Fruit by the Meter?
Nice try non-american
Stick around and keep trying to improve the country despite everyone else’s best efforts to fuck it all up
This is my plan. I have to finish medical school anyways, and once I’ve done that, I’ll be in a better position to help other people.

I’m very curious as to why you think I’m naive in some way, and why you see yourself as so much wiser than another internet stranger.
What have you done lately?
Jump ship. Honestly, I’ll execute plan “leave the U.S. while it’s still possible.”
Hope it don’t turn out that’s before the election. he’s signalled every intent to clamp down hard
You must realize he’s pandering to the far right extremists. He had every opportunity to actually close the borders and realistically build a wall. This guy is so full of shit his eyes are brown.
It’s not him I’m afraid of, it’s his followers.
Check out project 2025 to see how Trump’s cronies are planning on purging the govt of anyone not loyal to Trump and MAGA and replacing them with loyalists.
All the young uni kids who went full anti Biden on one issue, are likely too young to remember what president Trump was really like. They’re gonna love him, since being miserable and outraged seems to be their preferred default.
the uni kids reasonably thought they could convince biden to condemn genocide
Someone has already opened an opportunity for me to move to the UK, but for non-political reasons. Though it will remain an option.
Move faster and work lots of overtime to get the last of my debt paid off then going to a friends place in Mexico. I speak Mexican Spanish well enough so I can avoid areas filled with expats.
As much as I fear what Trump will do to the nation it probably won’t have much of an effect on me personally.
I live in a deep red state that’s already about as corrupt and authoritarian as it can be, of course that’s never really true- but it’s not like it’s being held up by anything Trump will target. The powers that be and a wide majority of the population are already fully subservient to Trump so it’ll just be business as usual here.
I’m middle-aged, own my home, no dependents, all the childhood friends I’ve had that would be vulnerable already moved away and I have a pretty small circle of family\friends and not really looking to expand. And have a good position that’s very insulated from economic and political turbulence. I’m also a cis white male and a gun-owner, I blend pretty seamlessly unless I tell people what I think about state\national politics. And I love the food and nature here. Also I kinda can’t imagine job hunting at this point at all, let alone in another state. I’d like to live in a place that better reflected my values but I don’t actually think that would help me or anyone else.
I’m established here and I don’t really have any incentive to leave. Nobody is coming for me here and me moving to a Blue state won’t help anyone there. And my accent has made people react negatively to me in the past and I’m worried I’d actually appear to be more of a fish out of water in those places than I do here, even though that’s kinda what I’ve always been here. I vote, I donate. I used to volunteer but I’m tired now. Weird that I’ve made such a comfortable home in a viper den but we make lives how and where we can.
I know it’s just my privilege to say this but no matter what happens in 2024 my life will be pretty much the same for the foreseeable future. Intellectually I worry a lot about the fate of the nation and humanity but personally I worry more about collapsing global trade and infrastructure fucking up supply chains and creating civil unrest that will effect me personally. But idk what to do about that but worry so I guess why worry…
I’m in a similar situation. I have well developed social camouflage that will keep me under the radar. I’ll just continue to keep to myself.
Just keep doing what I am doing. My kids will have citizenship in my wife’s home country by the end of summer. So I can get them out if I have to. Me personally I am in no real danger.
Laugh, fart, jack off. Probably simultaneously.
Just keep on living without trying to let the complete bullshit affect my well being.
Why wouldn’t you want a man-baby rapist pedophile as president? He’s good enough for the republicans.
Leaving the country and taking my kids in case plan 2025 starts happening.
