I think the last of us will be gone in 30 years. This seems to be the consensus end time by the experts studying Climate Chaos and Global Roasting including ever-rising ocean temperatures, AMOC slowing, ice sheets melting, stronger hurricanes, floods, drought, crop failure, wildfire and starvation.

Trump will do everything he can to DESTROY the Clean Water Act and all regulations that exist to protect the public’s wildlife and other natural resources from any "development" by replacing all top career professionals in the agencies (54,000 total throughout government) with unqualified MAGAs.

FAFO - Lots of people who refused to believe the media, refused to believe Dems, refuse to believe their own eyes, are finding out that Project 2025 is real, mass deportation is real, massive tariffs that will raise the price of everyday goods are real and families are telling their MAGAs get lost.

He who controls the media controls the government. The media failed to rebut the propaganda poisoning voters' minds for 45 years. This election is a catastrophe for democracy worldwide and the world's wildlife. Big losers are the kids whose lives will now be shortened by un-checked Climate Chaos.

Food costs too high so you dumped the Dems? Just wait until you see what happens with 20% tariffs on all imports and Trump's goons deport a threatened 10-20 million undocumented workers who are the ONLY ones who are in the fields picking those crops. Expect inflation to go from 2.4% now to 20-30%.

60% of age 18-30 didn't vote. Experts are predicting their future will be eliminated well within 30 years by the worst effects of our Climate Crisis, likely extreme heat. Voting for those who will protect their future was just too much? Elections have consequences as they will find out the hard way.

Democracy doesn't "Die in Darkness," as WaPo says, but dies when democracy’s advocates fail to show up to fight for it. That applies both to our political leaders and to ourselves. Because we failed to confront the propaganda and lies, it is clearly slipping away. We are the "silent majority" now.

No Dem could have won this election. None could have overcome the dis-information and propaganda blanketing the public and brainwashing it every day non-stop for the last 45 years. Facts don't matter if the people never get to learn the truth. There is no Dem-leaning media to counteract the right's.

We are now entering the 6th mass extinction with our climate crisis becoming increasingly evident world-wide (stronger hurricanes, massive floods, unbearable heat waves, extensive drought, unstoppable wildfires, ever-rising ocean temperatures, ice sheets melting, Gulf Stream/AMOC slowing, etc.).

Fight to Save the Planet is Dead
With this disastrous election, we not only lost the chance to save our democracy and eliminate MAGA fascism, but we also lost the opportunity to save the planet from Climate Chaos. The stakes were well known. We failed our leaders by not rebutting the propaganda.
