Friday hopium open thread: Predictions
Hello everyone! You have your humble blog-lord filling in for our own Master of My Universe today. And I have some prophecy for you.
- 2026 will be a decimation for the GOP. Forget 2018. We're looking at 1932, when after Herbert Hoover's tariffs worsening the Depression, Democrats had control of Congress for fifty years. But it'll be even worse for the Republicans. This will be an extinction level event. They had a chance to stop the crazy, but were too cowardly, craven, or compromised to do so.
- 2028? Chile. Democrats will have at least sixteen years of uninterrupted occupation of the White House. The "gentlemen's agreements" which have ruled American politics up until Trump's regime will be codified so that no one like him will ever again to be in a position to traduce this Republic. Conservatives cannot be trusted to be partners in our Commonwealth, so they will have to be reduced and constricted from their fuckery. The House will be expanded. The Supreme Court will be expanded. Felons will not be allowed to run for the presidency, or any office.
- "Oh, but Trump will impose his dictatorship before that!" Again, chile. Here's my main prediction. This orange motherfucker won't last his entire term. Hell, he won't last six months. The chaos he's causing is unsustainable and untenable. He's fucking with everyone's money, and there will soon be an extreme reaction. Never fuck with the money. When the Kochites are sour on him, one can assume that the rest are coming after him. I'm not predicting just what the reaction will be. But no one is completely protected, no matter how good his security is. His "cave" on Wednesday was nothing of the sort, and the markets are reacting accordingly. Don't. Fuck. With. The. Money.
We're in the shit, my dear friends. But that shit is about to get flushed down.
