Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Once again getting absolutely lapped by China, common Trump L
"Trump seems committed to turning the U.S. into a petrostate, solidifying its position as the world’s largest oil and gas producer and exporter. ... China is becoming an electro-state, the world’s largest manufacturer, exporter and overseas investor in clean energy technologies."

In the future, no one will ever go to prison. You'll simply be followed around all the time by a robot whose job it is to prevent you from doing crimes, which itself will be followed around all the time by two guys whose job it is to make sure the robot doesn't tip over and fall for no reason.
