A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,... whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

Honestly, I doubt it. Even if he loses, he's still going to be spewing his mouth diarrhea nonstop and his cult will still believe the shit he says. Also, I'm thinking the Republican party will continue his shit. He created a new Republican party. They'll keep pushing candidates who will act and do shit like him since he's been very successful in fooling his base.

Policy-wise it is the same Grand Old Party. The vibe and rhetoric is different, but the policy is mostly all there.

Indeed, he didn't create the party, he just says the quiet part out loud.

I think if he loses theres a good chance that the people behind him will knock him off.

You know what works better than a hero? A martyr.

I think if he wins he's a dead man.

He's great for getting elected, but terrible in power, so use him and lose him, blame it on the other side.

No reason to leave such a chaotic idiot in actual charge of anything.

Hope I'm wrong, he's like Hitler, he always gets in his own way.
