11. It just doesn't matter
Thu Nov 20, 2025, 03:54 PM
Thursday

I'm tired of being in a never ending cycle of rage

Nothing we say or do will change anything.
The news media will not care. Especially 48 hours from now.
The courts will not care.
The DOJ will not care.
Congressional Republicans will not care.

Yes, it's horrible but no one that can actually do anything about it actually give a fuck.

They have all given him carte blanche to do whatever he wants.
They will never impeach him.
They will never arrest him.
SCOTUS has very literally, given him limitless power that cannot be questioned.
Not sure what regular people are supposed to do about any of this anymore.
