But at the same time, it’s not like Trump is going to even ATTEMPT to do anything about student loans or school shootings. We need to be clear with non-voters, the issues that are driving you to sit out are not the issues you should be worried about. Joe Biden is selling weapons to Israel! Yes, weapons they don’t actually need to commit the war crimes they are committing. Meanwhile Trump: https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/16/politics/trump-american-jews-israel/index.html “No President has done more for Israel than I have.” Here’s what you should be worried about: Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito are both well past retirement age. Trump could very well ask them to step down so he can appoint someone younger. He already did that with Justice Kennedy. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2018/06/donald-trump-justice-anthony-kennedy-retirement That would give Trump 5 picks on the Supreme Court and lock in a dystopian nightmare of rulings for the rest of our lives.
