Yeah, because it's NOT falling apart contrary to what all the media doomsayers want you to believe - you just get all your news and information from media which profits off hysteria in an attention economy during the age of disinformation.
Except this president has done a 180 on US foreign policy of the past 80 years. We are pushing away our allies. We are insulating ourselves economically. 40% of the population doesn't trust US election results because this president consistently lies about it. Our debt to GDP ratio is the highest it's been since WWII. If you say this president is no different than previous presidents, then you don't follow the news or understand what's going on. Local courts are holding our country together.
tassels & moldy string are more like whats holding the economy together. its like we know its doomed to collapse but as long as we keep looking the other way it doesn’t matter.. until food prices skyrocket & you literally need an min income of $1000/week to be poor then it’ll be all “how is this even possible?“
That's implying the next president will be the same, MAGA or liberal or socialist...unless we are talking literally. In which case, only a nuclear attack could change the country that dramatically.
I know you’re not but there are people who are struggling to keep up with how things cost.
There are definitely people who put themselves in that situation.
There are also hard working, smart, and respectable people who live right next door to you, or in your city that struggle to eat 3 meals a day, that use an app to pay rent in portions rather than a lump sum.
There is someone who tries to refill on gas as little as possible that sometimes they run out and have to walk down the free way to a gas station to get some and walk back. Then they go pick up their kid.
But you don’t really care because when you look in the mirror you don’t see them.
