That will be helpful, but for ducks sake. . .
Can we please get some sanity in the white house?
- The country literally voted for insanity and derangement rather than the status quo. Like, I don't even know what to do.
  
  I bet we find out they cheated by fucking with voting machines in swing states someday. They sure do like to make little quips about it that they think only MAGA will understand.
  
  People love their bigotry, that's why trump was voted in, helped with election interference
- On 3 November 2026 there will be an opportunity to end the republican majority in the senate, ending their ability to pass any bill they please
  
  There is also about 450 days of protesting, striking, organizing, boycotting...
  Waiting for the next election is not going to fix things, just like it didnt before.
  
  Lmao you saw what they got done in a hundred days, you really think there will be enough rule of law for voting to matter in 2026 if we don't do something sooner?
  
  Not for me. I hope those given the opportunity will take it.
  
  Will there, though? A group of people who actively ignore court orders and the constitution (when it suits them) are really, really unlikely to relinquish power.
- With the current crop of oval office occupants...???
  Most assuredly not.
  Don't be silly. 🤷‍♂️
Or, and hear me out...
Fucking make the red cunt's lives miserable until they force the Mango Mussolini to live at the golf course and fuck off once and for all.
Plan B, they ship the product and make DHL, FedEx, USPS who ever collect so it's fully clear to everyone who's paying and where.
Adding fees and abstraction just confuse the idiots who will try to say it's China who needs to pay for it
- You could provide literal receipts and they'll still say things contrary to reality. They're deeply stupid people.
- DHL suspends high value US deliveries over tariffs
  
  That's already been reversed: DHL lifts suspension of high-value deliveries to US
  
  Yes, because Trump is eliminating the de minimus exception for Tariffs. Meaning even if an individual imports a small product it will be subject to tariffs.
- Plan C: Thats what the 2. Amendment in the US Constitution is for!
A project I am supporting just dropped a mail on that subject. They will handle all non-US deliveries including Canada and Mexico through other countries. Originally, they wanted to handle everything from the US. Good for us, as we expect to have a relay in the EU so we don't even have to deal with customs.
