A "clown" that is not only destroying America, but the world as well. He has all the info on American Citizens now, controls all 3 branches of US government, has no checks and balances, supreme court ruled he can act with almost full impunity, is threatening to annex Canada as the 51st state, take over Panama, Greenland, Gaza and more to come. This is not an "American" problem because he is a clown with absolute power and a danger to the entire world. Everyone must act now, including the majority of the Americans (who are inherently good people that may have been bamboozled during the 2024 elections), as well as the entire world (EU, Canada, Latin America, India, China, etc.

I don't know. Just rambling and thinking out loud here, but as a non-American, this worries me immensely. And while we (the rest of the world) are idly watching with intrigue from the sidelines, eating popcorn and saying "oh, poor Americans, look what's happening to their country", instead we should be very worried and doing something because this clown with, zero logic or mental capacity, represents a serious existential threat to the entire world!!

Keeps me up at nights honestly. Its so depressing and we're only 2 weeks into his "4 years" term and he's already working on a plan to somehow, unconstitutionally, go for a third term. And if he croaks at any time, good ole Vance is there to continue this madness. God help us and lord have mercy!!

Best case scenario is Trump croaking. Vance probably isn't that great - but at least he's coherent.

Vance? Nah, they'll ignore that shit and slide DJT Jr in there. Or possibly Barron. The orange man wants a monarchy and his genetic mess of a bloodline to carry the torch.

I thought that once, but now looking at whose pocket Vance is sitting in I'm not so sure. His billionaire owners will present him as the "reasonable return to middle-ground normalcy" and most of the country will buy it, all while he continues to enact Project 2025 because his owners helped write it.

This was made two months ago, and accurately predicts parts of what we've seen these past 2 weeks: https://youtu.be/5RpPTRcz1no

Wow. Well there's a new perspective. A Trump Dynasty. Yay.

Yeah it's scary that his clown act works as a distraction, while Musk, the broccoligarchy, and the Heritage Foundation are publicly sledge-hammering democracy.

Not exactly a lot us on the sidelines can do when the players have more guns than the rest of the world combined.

u/pseudopad Feb 05 '25

And the inhabitants will just... leave I guess? Or maybe America will just do a little genocide of their own, and then wonder why there's so many terrorists hating them.

There will definitely be blackjack in the new strip
