Let's be real. It still has quite some way to go. But unless there are drastic changes in the voter population, that is where it is going.

I'm an outside perspective as well. And I agree. I like the way things are shaking out. It's going to be rough... but positive.
Yes. Lets hope not too rough (as in WW3 or the like), but yes. It had to happen. And it will be be ultimately a good thing.
While certainly historically accurate, do you think the MAGAs can be really reached that way? They seem so deeply stuck in their made-up parallel universe that nothing can shake their deep and entirely baseless conviction that they are right.
"Home of the brave"
"Land of the free"
Remember when that was True ?

That would be sort-of a good thing. But the reality is that the US voter population is broken and wants to remove democracy.
Racism is universally bad. I guess that detail is a bit too complicated for you
And on the other hand, said comedian does a far better job than any career politician would have done. Maybe these people are valuable to society?
Like a true MAGA moron, you cannot read and have no clue what the function of a free press is. This "ban" is also applied to unclassified materials and obviously does not cover any illegal activities at all. Because, you know, these are already illegal.
These people have no shame.
Keep hallucinating. What will happen is that some things will simply not be available in the US anymore, and for others you will have to pay through the nose. The tariffs are one reason for that, but the more important one is that the US has grown unreliable (another blithering idiot may well get voted into office after Trump, directly or later) and businesses like that not one bit. They have moved out of countries for that reason alone.
Hence enjoy your delusions while the real changes are still possible to ignore. After that, good luck! You will need it.
But also watch as the world leave US tech from the like of Microsoft as they can no longer "trust" it and instead put $ into OSS that they can control/modify.
Indeed. I work with some people that analyze firmware and software for critical government uses here. Using FOSS makes that analysis massively easier, and placing some of your own devs in there makes it even easier and you get additional benefits.
As you will see, I told them, in no uncertain terms, to see Figure one. -- Dave "First Strike" Pare
