36. It is not worth it but is there a choice?

It is merely fighting it to a draw every 4 years. Unfortunately, no progress will be made. It is not good for climate change and science, in general. It is going to be devastating for the TRUMPERS like Latinos and others who voted for him. Personally speaking, I think a confederation of 3 states, Pacific West, Northeast, and MAGA middle is the ultimate solution. This way, the nation will remain but within their pockets,they can run it to ground
