Trump getting elected will cause a legitimacy crisis. You have someone openly criminal (as opposed to the rest which were covert about it) flagrantly breaking the rules, which is the one thing all “great” societies did milliseconds before collapsing, and he will be elected in through the very system itself because 1) the institutions failed to prevent him from running and 2) He was running against a corpse with record low approval literally currently complicit in and funding an active ongoing genocide.
It’s not going to be long before people start asking questions and noticing that the entire fucking system has been rotten the entire time.
It means they’re going to keep trying to adjust the public’s values to the administration’s policy; or, for the laymen, “more genocide, but faster and harder; and don’t you dare withhold your votes for it.”
Rather than propagating an aberrationist tale, the president offered a crucial acknowledgment when referring to the idea that “we’re all created equal”: “We’ve never fully lived up to that idea, but we’ve never walked away from it either. And I won’t walk away from it now.”
If he truly believed that, the Five-Eyed Empire would not be sinking all of its resources into murdering Palestinians by the hecatomb just to have a beachhead to continue fomenting war, paranoia, and terrorism in the middle east. When it comes time for the history books to talk about these days, I will not be on the side of the settlers.
