Likely (>70%):
- Mass deportations, ~3-5 million people
- General 20% tariffs, 60% tariffs on China, massive inflation
- Economic collapse due to mass deportations
- Entire cabinet departments and federal agencies gutted. DoEd especially
- Every single prominent democratic official gets constant lawsuits, IRS audits, etc etc you name it
- Every single person at the Capital on J6 gets pardoned
- Ukraine and Palestine are both just obliterated off the map, no aid is passed to either of them
Unlikely but still possible (<10%):
- End of Fed independence
- Military Generals get fired, Trump ends military independence
- Medicare and Medicaid are both gutted
- RFK is appointed head of HHS or CDC, no more fluoride in the water, no new vaccines approved
If you voted Democrat and you are feeling that the election result is truly horrifying, do this one simple thing for your mental health:
Write down your fears of what might happen in the next 4 years on a piece of paper.
Re-read and check in on them every few months.
It will be a constant source of relief to you when you see that your fears will not, in fact, come true.
Then start asking why you had those fears in the first place and how you can prevent them from forming the next time.
I scheduled this tweet for my last day at Twitter. It's been a pleasure working with all my coworkers, even if it hasn't been a pleasure working for our boss. I hope you all are able to do great work whether it's here or elsewhere. Anyone who I worked with feel free to reach out, and remember you have other options that probably pay better
I will be giving up Twitter for Lent. Had a great time on here with you all. I have a couple posts scheduled which will be the only thing you’ll see here for a while. Thank you all and see you after Easter!
The reason anyone would want to abolish the NIH is because libs like it and it would make them mad. That and they’re still butthurt about 200 year old Fauci
@alexeyguzey You raise very valid points with regard to issues with NIH. I’d argue that NIH as a whole is still valuable to society. Either way, conceding your premise that there are issues with the organization, why would you argue to abolish NIH and not reform it?
@ViaDemocritus@jrpsaki@nataliegwinters She’s been working in the field for decades, also what business of it is yours what the sister of some journalist’s salary is?
@Lib_Development How is it worse than either? It’s one of the premier biological research institutes in the world only behind Harvard. It’s probably the best thing America has done for medicine ever
Hey Ben I'm willing to kneel on your neck with your hands behind your back so you can prove that George Floyd was just a pussy and Chauvin did nothing wrong. This offer stands any time you're in New York
