    The ice thing would still be happening for sure. She made that clear during her campaign. The difference is when a dem does wrong libs stop showing up to the protests that we organize and tell us “atleast its not trump!” “stop dividing the left” etc.

        Perhaps an intimate NYT piece about an ICE agent of Somali descent after the recent tragedy in Minneapolis with the closing lines:

        The work we do is important, and is an integral part of our freedom and security. Eat Fresh.

      The ICE thing probably wouldn’t be as bad or as blatant (no public executions on the street). But still pretty bad, and more organized.

      The Venezuela thing would also be happening but with different justifications and different methods (probably a coup of some kind, orchestrated by supplying local reactionaries with weapons and suitcases of cash).

      The Epstein files would still be full of ████████ except you wouldn’t be able to just copy-paste the text to get the unredacted version.

      Gaza would probably be exactly the same TBH. So would Sudan.

      The main differences would be in some (token or otherwise) support for renewables and academia, slightly less deregulation and tax breaks for billionaires, and of course all the institutional imperialism/soft power stuff (international orgs, NATO/Greenland, etc).
