I grew up in the 90s. If someone had told me America was roughly 20 years out from letting a felon rapist pedophile roll over the U.S. while it just stood by and watched I simply would have dismissed it as absurd.
In their defense I don’t think most people knew what trends to look for since such skills are attached to historical literacy the long suffering child of the humanities. History ain’t boring the way it’s taught in elementary, middle, and highschool is shit, rather than focusing on the push and pull of history, society, culture, and economics they focus on ye olde facts that have the same general depth as one of my ancestor trade ledgers. There’s a tale in said facts but it takes a good bit of skill to weave it back together.
Lol.

Such a comically pathetic nation.
You know how in the Final Destination movies, when someone escapes death, then death incessantly tries to take them by other means.
COVID was supposed to take a lot of old people, but we wore masks.
You grew up with clinton and Bush and didnt quite see a trend there?
