7. Possible reasons.

1. Rich people think all the money in the world belongs to them.
They are done with sick people seeing doctors, getting healthcare.
Too much money down the drain.

2. MAGAs believe in survival of the fittest.
No treatment for sick people, no vaccines for kids.
Only the healthiest and luckiest will live.

3. Trump has systematically destroyed every single thing
that makes America great. Healthcare, education, science, military.
federal govt, etc etc. We are no longer world leaders in these fields.

And the people we love and respect. The Kennedys, Jackie's Rose Garden,
the Kennedy Center, etc.

Destroying our monuments, the White House, etc.

Who benefits and how, if the US is degraded significantly?
We are no longer world leaders in anything.

US sinks in power and prestige, who rises to power to become global superpowers?
