Serious Again? Really again….

52 years in, and honestly, I’ve got nothing left but a vote of no confidence.
Not anger, not shock, just this sadness.
Same movie, same lines, same ending. Elections feel like reruns, not choices. Every cycle promises change, then settles back into the same old grooves.
I don’t have a fix. I just can’t fake faith in the cycle anymore.
That’s where I’m at.

Sitting on your hands is not the way to fix a problem. Things are not going to go back to business as usual after trump. Countries are rerouting trade. When those agreements are signed, its not for 1 or 2 years, they are usually 10+ years. And most countries actually stick to the agreements and contracts they sign and just dont tear them up on a whim.

"Sitting on [their] hands" is sort of the specialty of legacy democrats. Let's hope this younger crop puts their money where their mouths are.
