    And you’re so sure that you’re safe, just because you know you were born in the right place at the right time that can never fall.

    Even if it isn’t Trump in the position, their plan is to take over. Yeah, Trump is old. It wouldn’t be the first time an old man has grasped for power and succeeded. You would do well to learn from history and recognize that nothing is permanent, lest you learn to regret not knowing so.

    I do not suspect Trump successfully destroys our democracy, but I’m also not so certain in that as to not caution others to make preparations in case they’re necessary. Hopefully they’re not, but it can only hurt to not be ready.

        And the best argument you have for lying down is an emoji. That truly shows how weak your position is. Stop pretending like we live in a fairytale that can never end. Live in ignorance, but do not tell others to join you. It can and will end. It’s just a matter of when and by who. I hope now isn’t the time, but everyone should always be prepared in case it is.

          This is like watching someone have an existential crisis in real time. It really is quite amusing. Do more!

            I’m sorry. You’re mistaken by which one of us is comedic. Review the comments above. Maybe you’ll come up with a better response the next time you have this conversation.
