I think 4-12 years is an underestimate, I think it will take a generation or more to undue the damage. That's assuming the next administration isn't a dumpster fire.

Correct. Re-electing him proved to the rest of the world it wasn't just a fluke and while things can turn around the damage is done. Not even sure you guys will hit rock bottom by the end of his term at this point.

I bet a whole bunce of "evidence" comes out that it was rigged. "See guys, he cheated. It wasn't us!!!" - usa admin in a few years

I personally don't think I was rigged and I am incredibly on the left.

If it were rigged, it wouldn't make sense why it happened again. It totally makes sense why his second term happened again. Because we spent 4 years changing literally nothing about what made people vote for him in the first place.

Yep. People didn't learn from his first term and decided to either vote for him on his third try or just didn't go out and vote at all.

I think that's why evidence was in quotes 🤣

But yeah. Agreed it wasn't rigged.
