Young people have too many emotions and can’t be trusted with decision-making, the country’s minister of climate change, Ali Shareef, last year told a public forum.

If the US survives Trump, I believe the country will be changing for the better longer term.
Lack of voter engagement makes progressive populism policy hard to pass. If there’s a sense of “we’re the most free country in the world, things may not be perfect, but things are better than they would be elsewhere” then the engagement required for change won’t happen.
If things are worse than a year ago, then people might start realizing the government isn’t working and be forced to be more engaged which allows more populism progressive policy to rise to the top.
Climate change is similar, it’s been talked about for so long that until it gets to be nearly unhabitable many people won’t get on board with its existence. But when they do they’ll be fully on board.
Whether the rubber band will bounce back before its too late, idk, could snap. But if we survive.the worst change, the good change will come.
The U.S. already witnessed the damage and chaos of a Trumpster Fire presidency.
After 4 years of progress under Biden, it voted for more damage and chaos.
Americans are humans, and humans are all too often short-termist, irrational, and destructive.
