“Just Say That the Election Was Corrupt, and Leave the Rest to Me”: In Georgia, Donald Trump Appears Beyond F--ked - Lemmy.world

I’m so sick of these headlines.

They remind me of the endless headlines over the years (decades, actually) of how the Republican party is ready to collapse or implode or explode or insert-other-ominous-word-here.

As with all those failed predictions of the GOP going the way of the dodo bird, until I see Trump in an orange jumpsuit I won’t believe any of the shit they claim will happen.

The GOP dies with the Boomers so we still have a bit before it goes away. The DNC will become the new right but it will be because the center moves left and a Progressive Party is formed.

Some of us GenX, as kids, thought it would die with the 'Greatest' Generation and the Silent Generation. You know, the Strom Thurmonds of the world. The problem is, boomers that seemed cool actually weren't - and were just hiding it - way more than we could have believed. And growing up during Reagan poisoned a bunch of us too.

New bigots keep getting made. Preventing it needs an active approach.
