No way. There's tons of people who are of the "I'd never want to have Trump as a guest in my house, but I hate the democrats" variety. These are people who happily voted for Bill Clinton, Bush in 2004 because terrorism, and Obama, but deeply hate what the cultural left has become. These are the people that don't necessarily want to vote for Trump because they think he's a gross person, but do so because he's the only one that actually smears the left in a way that resonates with average people. Keep in mind that Trump actually got more total votes in 2020 than 2016, gained ground in every single demographic except college educated white men in the same timeframe, and lost by a very slim margin in 2020. This absolutely works in his favor as it's the proof purchase that the justice system has become weaponized by the political establishment generally, and the left most glaringly. This is a George Soros funded DA! People are not too stupid to realize that.I keep hearing this talking point but I personally doubt it. If this was any other candidate I could maybe see this swaying voters, but I don't know anyone who didn't vote for Trump in 2020 going "oh shit this is fucked up I'm gonna vote for him now."
The point is, the cultural left and the democrats have seemingly done everything in their power to make Trump win again in 2024.If anything it's the Biden administration's general incompetency that would sway voters, economy is shit right now.
I feel like these people would be more likely to either vote third party or not vote at all though?These are the people that don't necessarily want to vote for Trump because they think he's a gross person, but do so because he's the only one that actually smears the left in a way that resonates with average people.
A lot of the people I know just see it as further proof that he's a criminal, I get the impression anyone already aware of the shit Soros pulls in the US weren't going to vote dem/Biden anyways.This absolutely works in his favor as it's the proof purchase that the justice system has become weaponized by the political establishment generally, and the left most glaringly.

This is starting to sound like a stupider version of the Yulia Tymoshenko goes to jail for supposed abuse of power but not really situation.Indictment is a go, guess the question now is if he'll willingly turn himself in?View attachment 58255
So if they were either going to vote 3rd party or not vote, but see this, get mad, and vote for Trump that's in his favor.I feel like these people would be more likely to either vote third party or not vote at all though?
The thing is, this case was already dismissed years ago now. They found some technicality to not only revive the case but elevate it to a felony charge when it's normally prosecuted as a misdemeanor in NY. Of all the the things Trump is being investigated for presently, this is by far the weakest possible charge. If they had half a brain cell to share amongst themselves they'd have prioritized the Dominion lawsuit as well as the GA county one where he instructed the local official to "find the votes."A lot of the people I know just see it as further proof that he's a criminal, I get the impression anyone already aware of the shit Soros pulls in the US weren't going to vote dem/Biden anyways.
I've only had a few friends, Floridians in their mid-20s, to base it off of so far, they're not particularly into politics and by all accounts are "normies."I won't ask you to doxx yourself but I'm curious what circles you are in that people who are theoretically swing voters are viewing this as "further proof that he's a criminal." The only people I know (or have even heard of) who see it that way were never going to vote for him anyways.
If you want a real shit show for a potential casus belli, it'd be not only the prospect of Trump getting arrested in Florida, but the use of the [Florida] state guard to hinder the feds from carrying it out.
With there being rumblings of major foreign powers (Russia, China, India, etc) abandoning USD as the standard, could something like that possibly lead to the situation described above? US has historically seen periods of economic downturn/social unrest, but we don't really have a precedent for that sort of situation.If something huge like housing fell apart to the point where you ended up with a large class of homeless working people who are not mentally ill or addicts, I think a huge conflict would be more likely. I don't think things are that dire yet, though.
It's hard to tell. The thing is, the US and Canada together is over 12% of the world's landmass while having just around 6% of the world's total population. Canada alone has 7% of the world's drinkable water. Parts of Canada and the US are sitting on an abundance of oil and minerals. They functionally work as a single economic unit and there are more than enough resources between the two to keep everyone in either country relatively comfortable. I'm not so sure either country needs China or India for anything other than cheap labour. Even if there was an economic depression, with today's tech, notably better than it was in the 1930s, the low population density in North America and the abundance of arable land between the US and Canada, I find it hard to believe wide-spread starvation would be on the table unless something totally retarded happens like government nationalizing all farmland, like the Soviet Union, or a nuke glassing the prairies and destroying all the good farmland.With there being rumblings of major foreign powers (Russia, China, India, etc) abandoning USD as the standard, could something like that possibly lead to the situation described above?

Nah, mutts will never do anything. They rather sit on their fat arses and go on about muh guns and "once it reaches muh suburbs" etc. If covid protests were anything you could use to give an estimate than we look at probably a few thousand people that would do something.
it was a legal insurrection
yes. undermines validity and solution-makingThe government would never allow for a legal insurrection against itself.
fixed it for youbut once you bring violence against the government it becomesinsurrectionbased
In theory the US constitution allows for some forms of this, and at the very least clearly establishes its righteousness in the preamble, however like you said in practice it is forbidden.The government would never allow for a legal insurrection against itself.
rhetorical arguments
Kind of felt that way during covid/the lockdowns, or is it just me?Because everyone already knows who is on his or her side and seeks them out when the first rumours of mutiny or major disagreements circle around.
As an American looking in it seems like Canada avoided that at the expense of becoming a liberal totalitarian nation, with that puppet Trudeau really accelerating things.Maybe the fact we avoided that giant conservative vs liberal clash is what changed everthing.
