    Some possibilities that might cheer you up:

    1. Trump is obviously in declining physical and mental health that might force him to step down. Of course, this just gives us shitbird #2, but at least he might be smart enough to not tank the economy.

    2. Maybe the Republicans will do something about him. We’ve seen some Republicans publicly come out against him, and there are probably a lot more who oppose him privately. Republicans are cowardly bastards, but they’re also greedy bastards, so they might invoke the 25th before Trump crashes the economy with tariffs.

    3. Maybe Judge Juan Merchan will sentence him. I’m not sure how this works legally, and this is so unprecedented that I don’t think anybody really does, but maybe, just maybe, Merchan will say “fuck it” and give the Republicans a little constitutional crisis to go along with their election victory.

      That’s truly naive. The problem isn’t the man but that all the judiciary systems are in hand of people who clearly want to dismantle the democratic system
