I am not going to be sober if it turns out we have to deal with Trump (or notorious couch-fucker JD Vance) for another 4 years

I have been unduly interested in US politics since 2016.

The last Trump presidency emboldened crazies and the right wing here in NZ. Our current government is acting far more right wing than any in the past 30 years. 30 years ago, there were other reasons for the moves that were made....this time it seems to be because FUCK YOU if you are not already rich.

I really wish that US politics wasn't so important for the rest of the world....but it really is. It sucks!

If Trump wins again, then I see a further strengthening of the global right. As it is, it is going to take a generation to reverse some of the issues currently being created.
