    Probably leave the country for a while. That’s one of the nice things about being dual citizen. I understand this doesn’t work for everybody, and there are probably other maybe better responses, but that’s my first thought.

    I mean, I get it. If he were to win again things would get much worse. But I still feel like Republicans are running the country right now anyway, and things are only very slightly better than they were under Trump. Ok, some environmental things were rolled back from Trump policies. There was some student debt relief. But all the big things they’re telling me to be scared for if he wins again, I’m already scared about right now. The Supreme Court corruption, the influence of money in politics, Russian interference, sympathy toward Israeli genocide–those things are doing as much damage as Trump could, and Democrats are ignoring it all!

    Resist as much as possible without getting killed. BTW, I’m an Old-White-Guy Boomer. Not all people in my generation are lining up to kiss Trump’s ass…

      It’s important for the left to recognise that boomers as a whole also represent a group of people who face significant systemic challenges, and that the real enemy is capitalism and the power structures that maintain it as the status quo.
