but what if he never really leaves office and MAGA rules our country for the rest of our lives because of their terrifying newfound power?

How will I be able to even work on my life purpose if I get arrested and thrown into prison by the police under Trump's authority for no good reason?

Prevent your mind from going to extreme scenarios too early. One needs a peaceful and realistic mind in order operate in life.

Why would you get thrown into prison for pursuing your life purpose in the first place? Most of the world's countries are authoritarian, you know. And people live in them just fine.

The worst thing that could happen is a civil war and that's unlikely.

So, why should we be hopeful about anything now, considering that we are now all doomed to misery for probably the rest of our lives?

I despise Trump and would not vote for him, but what do you believe will happen which will directly impact your life to such a degree that you won't be able to be happy?

Here's how I think it will directly influence us:

- Rampant inflation: Trump will pressure fed to keep interest rates close to zero, as well as cutting taxes for the rich. You can profit from this by investing in assets during these bubbles. This is what I plan to do, no need to be miserable, take care of yourself.

- Societal stupidity: This is the greatest impact in my life, when over half the population is duped by this propaganda it makes it very difficult to have a normal conversation. I will suffer from this, but I've accepted that there have been many eras throughout history like this, and it will pass eventually.

- Supreme court judges appointed and democracy of our nation challenged. This one is tough, because these idiots will enact harmful policies for decades. Most of these policies will erode the education of our nation by empowering states to make dumb decisions. For this, you need to educate yourself and your children. You need to be more involved. The democracy side of things, that could be rough if we end up with more and more authoritarian leadership.

I don't really see anything else. Unless we end up in WW3, it's unlikely you will personally be affected to such an extent that you must live in misery. What am I missing?
