    This is the kind of stuff I subscribe to this channel for. Never stop being vigilant. I like her words panic and stay hysterical, the worst thing we can do is to fall into complacency and stop caring.

      Lp Alcantara liberal bubble with no basis in reality. trump is not that different from past presidents. The problem is not trump but the power system

    • @MRostendway
      @MRostendway 8 років тому +4

      What is being hysterical going to accomplish?
      Shouldn't we be calm and cool so we can organise how to take back the houses and the presidency?
      Making hysterical doomsday consoiracies will accomplish nothing and might guve him de reelection.

      It's just a metaphor I think. Having heightened alertness from an extreme emotion.

      Lp Alcantara With all the fearmongering coming from people like Samantha im sorry but I dont think they mean it as a metaphor.

    Can Masha Gessen become a regular part of the show? I can't get enough of her.

    • @helenanilsson5666

      Yeah they have pretty good chemistry. Masha's calm voice and serious face plays well with Sam's comedy.

    pretty much everything she said was what i was afraid of

    • @closedcl8

      And the worst part? There are people who actively root for this to happen, out of spite, all to glorify a man.

      My plan for doomsday is to drive to my parents farm in remote south Australia. They've got their own water supply, generators for power, sheep and a huge veggie garden as well as fruit trees for food. Also horses for traveling around when the petrol tank runs out. Plus the advantage of being in rural south Australia is that there's nothing there to nuke.

      The people who voted for Trump are outnumbered by those who didn't by more than 3 to 1, and we're starting to remember that. Maybe you should, too.

    The things she is saying are kind of being realized now. Seems like US is in the direction of autocracy.
