Summary

White male anger has repeatedly destabilized U.S. democracy, from defending slavery in the 18th century to opposing civil rights during the Cold War.

Today, this anger fuels support for Donald Trump, despite his authoritarian threats, legal troubles, and agenda that could harm the U.S. economy and global standing.

Trump’s appeal among white men reflects resistance to a multi-racial democracy, echoing past patterns where white supremacy was prioritized over national stability.

This anger now threatens to undermine the American democratic project once again.

    Nope, America just isn’t going to survive the stupidity of Americans in general.

    Men, women, white, Latino, Muslim, Indians both native and India, to a lesser extent blacks, Jews and Asian Americans are all just mind bogglingly stupid.

    Looking forward to it getting even worse with tik tok and the dismantling of the education department.
