as pathetic as it is, the alternative was still way worse
True, but only up to a point.
If Trump goes to war with Venezuela or Iran, "at least he's not Kamala Harris" goes right out the window, in my opinion. And pushing certain economic policies, if they actually go into effect, could also push past that point. He's better than the alternative at the moment, but there's no guarantee that actually keeps being the case. How sad is that?
If Trump fucks up bigly on military or economic issues, he could throw it all away and go down as one of the worst US presidents. And he keeps cozying up to the very filth who want him to do that.
Trump 2.0 has only done a few good things; the border is a massive W (offset somewhat by legal immigration, but still a W), and his economics and non-military foreign policy have been quite good in places (and certainly better than the alternative.) The rest of the good stuff isn't coming from him, but just the overall shifting dialectic. Honestly, that's probably bigger than the border W; that people are talking about things they weren't comfortable with before.
if Harris was elected, we'd be at full scale war with Russia right now, with a full on drunk who can't even do one unscripted interview as the commander and chief of the United States military. Covid 2.0 would be ramping up and lockdowns would still be on the table across the United States and across the world. Federal government-mandated """low-income""" housing would be moving through the house, and regular neighborhoods would start to see addict riddled crack houses pop up in their streets. the border would still be wide open, and you would still be racist for pointing it out. government emission standards would mandate that you have an electric car by 2030, pricing the average American out of car ownership within 10 years.
It could have been a lot worse. Trump is a terrible president, and he is also the best candidate that ran in 2024.
This is crazy talk simply because the sheer number of people pouring into this country with the borders wide open. I don't want a conflict in Venezuela but I would even take Iraq/Afghanistan 2.0 over four more years of off the rails influx of illegals.
