As Florida becomes more and more uninhabitable this sort of behavior will begin to crop up in all the coastal states. The Florida Man diaspora will forever change the face of this world

Affordability is a bit bigger than just Trumps war. Minimum wage needs to be raised by several orders of magnitude, all businesses need to be heavily and aggressively regulated, and the buggest need to be either broken up, seized and made public utilities, or both

I could see country-wide change happening... Just not in a positive direction

At this point I’m unsure of any path forward in the US politically that will end in making things any better in the short term. I’m voting still and everyone should, but I fear it’ll either be what you said or the fascists seize more power by calling fraud and cheating. L
