Yea it's a pretty bleak and dystopian future ahead. This next US election is going to be wild.

Believe it or not, people outside the US also have computers and elections lol

I am outside the US, but it's the next big, global election. You'll watch it, I'll watch it, the world will watch it.

And the fact that it could very well be the end of any semblance of democracy the US has left if Trump and his ilk get power again.
