Republicans should never be in power ever again, period. Biggest reason isn’t even what Trump would do if we had a terrorist attack.
It’s global warming.
The US has a service economy and produces a quarter of all global waste/emissions. We produce that much waste without actually producing anything. At least China can claim that they MAKE stuff. We don’t. We pollute for FUN.
Even if we completely reversed course and went 100% all in on renewables and climate change mitigation, we’re looking at millions, possibly hundreds of millions dead in the poorest parts of the world in the coming decades because of our actions. And that’s the best case scenario. The way we’re headed, we’re looking at the end of life as we know it.
The very least we can do is push the government towards addressing the problems we’ve caused, and to do that, at the bare minimum we need to make sure we never let a Republican step foot in the White House again.
Everything else pales in comparison to the kind of damage we cause every time we let a climate change denier control the direction of US policy on global warming.
