I just don't see this happening with the cunts that are about to be at the control levers, in all 3 branches, mind you.

Absolutely hope to God I'm wrong. But I'm bracing myself for the worst because I feel like all the broken precedents from his first term are going to be nothing compared to what they do this time.

I'm worried because there's a scarily good chance that shit is about to go off the fucking rails in a way the US has never seen before, at least in the past century+. And due to how the world and US have changed in the modern century, the stakes and potential repercussions have never been higher or so dangerous.

We are about to become an axis power instead of an allied power.

Trump has praised north korean and Russian leaders, has condemned our allies leaders, actively promoting the taking of allied land and pushing the US away from allied groups.

I keep getting banned and down voted but MMW's, if trump and his cabinet aren't stopped we are 1000% sending troops to Russia or invading Canada.

You may have the axis/allies metaphor about right. Depending on how whacked things get, worst case scenario the rest of the world might need to band together just in self-defense.

I don’t know how likely that is, though; I don’t see Frump as having any interest in world conquest, just in being in control at home. And unless countries other than Canada come under threat of being annexed or whatever, I don’t think they’ll feel sufficiently threatened to take action beyond economic sanctions.

Don't because they are federal employees you'd be giving the government that is fighting them free money

A little to late for this, Trump in power means it'll never be unsealed and the lawsuit will get dropped.
