Best Case Scenario:

USGov balances budget and eradicates much corruption

Worst Case:

Same Same but Different of what we've had my entire life.

I'll take the risk cheering this on

Can you believe this kinda nonsense comes from Steve Jobs widow? SMH 🤦

many men have a goal to work hard enough so that their wives can afford to run a business that loses money

Corruption is a rule in politics that there are VERY few exceptions to. Looking across the world and back through history. Very rare. I would not hold my breath as the people in power now have a history of being grifters and con men already. More of the same, just different schemes and scams.

I choose to look at a brighter side of life

Given the track record of politicians and politics for thousands of years that’s being delusional. But you do you.

As I said, the downside is more of the same

President elect starting with a shitcoin rug and immediately using executive power to ā€œbanā€ antisemitic speech was a pretty bad start šŸ˜‚

I have my hopes up but my foot out the door. idk any other way to play it. I don't see pessimism as a worthwhile pursuit

Fair, I feel you. Assessing actions and broad trends objectively is the way I play it. I also stand for what I stand for and don’t compromise.

When the principles I stand on are violated I will not ignore the violation no matter what else is going on. Some may call that unreasonable but as I’ve seen quoted on Nostr, ā€œall progress depends on the unreasonable man.ā€

don't throw the baby out with the bathwater is another quote from someone else that seems to apply here

I wonder if Steve Jobs knew what a twat his wife is

Haha terrified. Looks like we’re over the target
