The bigger issue is that Trump and Putin are just the most visible part of the problem.

If they both died tomorrow (oh god please), another would simply take their place. It would require a complete deprogramming of their supporters on the scale of Germany in 1945. The problem is that the entire government needs to fall for that to ever even be attempted. It would literally require a revolution or large scale invasion for that to happen at this point, and even then, as we’ve seen with Russia and Northern Africa quite a few times, revolutions have a tendency to just pave the way for the next lunatic to take power.

In USA, invasion isn’t really possible, so it would have to be an incredibly violent and costly (in human lives) revolution, with a slim chance to actually change anything.

An invasion of Russia is probably possible, but it would require some insane inside help to make sure they don’t just nuke everything when they realise they’ve lost anyway. A revolution probably wouldn’t do much, because of the brainwashing problem.

How was it not already?

Don’t get me wrong. Fuck the lunatic, but this just seems like something that everyone assumed was already a thing, and now, when they realise it wasn’t, is super mad at Trump about, because it’s Trump.

There’s plenty of things about this piece of shit to be mad about, but making English the official U.S. language, when roughly 80% only speak english doesn’t seem like such a far fetched take.
