Tenhigh Posted May 30 Posted May 30 Honest question to my friends on the left, what are you going to do if Trump wins? Are you going to challenge the election? Any plans to leave the country? Will you support any of his suggested legislation? 2
stevestojan Posted May 30 Posted May 30 I’ll look at my calendar for Wednesday to see when my first meeting is the next day like any other Tuesday, as unlike MAGA, we don’t base our entire personality on a political candidate. And for the record, Biden is an awful president. Like I mentioned in another thread, all the GOP had to do was nominate literally anyone other than the orange stain and win the white house in a landslide. But MAGAts are so dedicated to this man who sells them golden sneakers, bibles (😂😂😂) and superhero NFTs that they just couldn’t nominate someone who wasn’t revolting to half the country. It’s truly odd. 2 7

It’s truly odd. You just pointed out one of the reasons I hang out here a bit: I do not know any of these MAGA nuts in my real life. I mean, I know plenty of conservatives, plenty of Republicans, plenty of Trump voters. But they're all conservatives/Republicans first. They don't disparage anyone who hasn't kissed the ring of Trump as a RINO or a commie. But right here on PPP is where you'll find those types. So this is where I do my little anthropology. 2 3

muppy Posted May 30 Posted May 30 if Trump wins the election what I will not be doing is hating my fellow Americans for their political opinions. There will be No Peace and I find that sad. What I will also Not do is say "RIGGED, FIXED, STOP THE STEAL. lol I will Vote and realize that is the extent of my personal power and Not assume EITHER political side is perfect I WISH I had a monopoly on truth to depend on. Guess what, Neither does anybody. Put down your Trump Bible and realize He is NOT the Savior of ANYTHING . Trump Bible indeed 2

Any plans to leave the country? Will you support any of his suggested legislation? Very unlikely that the election would have been stolen since that’s never happened before. You could make an argument for 1876 but that’s about it. Given the GOP’s plans, however, it’s unlikely that future elections wouldn’t be fixed. Personally, I’ll be fine. I’m a straight white dude with a great job living in a blue bastion. I’ll be sad, and there’s a chance his policies impact my job negatively, but overall, it won’t be a disaster for me. I’ll have to check in with my more vulnerable friends to see if they need support. At least one friend does have plans to head to Canada due to being LGBT. My wife and I will have to have a serious talk about if we want more kids. She has a condition that makes her likely to miscarry (she’s had five miscarriages) and if Trump signs a national law that mirrors what we see in Texas, her getting pregnant will be a serious risk for her health. Everything points to him being more off the hook and unrestrained than last time. I have a hard time seeing him championing policies I would support. 2
BillsFanNC Posted May 31 Posted May 31 The only people who are going to "do something" if Trump wins are the street communists, antifa etc. Just like always. And it will be ugly. But rest assured the orange man will not be POTUS again. Ever. 1

And maybe women who fear Trump's policy positions and rhetoric, which are considered misogynistic and represent a threat to the rights of women. We could say its deja vu all over again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Women's_March 1

Honestly curious, your opinions are pretty strong here, and I'm interested as to what drives them... 1 hour ago, muppy said: if Trump wins the election what I will not be doing is hating my fellow Americans for their political opinions.

I don't personally own a Trump Bible, or any Bible for that matter. I honestly think he's a POS, but I could say that about pretty much any national politician. 1

He must be impeached, no gray area anymore according to the construction of the USC. SHALL = Will happen. Must happen. SHALL is NOT: Should He must be removed according to the USC: "High crimes and misdemeanors" is a phrase from Section 4 of Article Two of the United States Constitution: "The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, SHALL be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors." Hey... I didn't write the thing! A convicted felon definitely fits this definition.

Us Americans are dumb, but not THAAAAAT dumb. Sensible people won't vote him in. But hey... Socialist Eugene Debs got 1 million votes in 1920 while sitting in jail. So Americans have always been idiots.
