  • This is the problem the Trump administration is going to have.

    It’s been made clear to us that many members of our armed forces have betrayed their oaths. We know from history that this is typical. Many people see an authoritarian government rising and choose to side with them because they think they’ll win due to their tough guy theatrics.

    But America is too mixed at this point.

    This isn’t the Civil War where the sides were generally geographically separated between north and south. Liberals and conservatives are all mixed in across the country. When it comes down to the wire, you aren’t going to convince many service members to bomb, shoot, murder in a region where their own family and friends live.

    Even if he had every last member of the military ready to do it, citizens still vastly outnumber them. But he won’t. The number of actual diehard MAGAts ready to actually start randomly murdering Americans en masse in all the mixed areas of our nation is not remotely enough to stop us if he decides to actually pop this off.

    If they’re smart they’ll dial back and turn up the heat slower so they can implement their authoritarian state slow enough that the average person doesn’t notice until too late. Right now they’re escalating too quickly. Getting too many people’s attention. Probably because Trump knows he doesn’t have much time left. And because they’re stupid.






  • I mean this is pretty simple for Democrats.

    Americans decided to tell Democrats to go fuck themselves after Biden had a legislatively successful presidency in which he tried (and in many cases succeeded) to pass a ton of legislation to help Americans. Not to mention all the historical data proving how much better Democrats are for average Americans than Republicans.

    It was a slap in the face from the ignorant American electorate.

    So now Democrats just have to sit back and let Americans find out what happens when they abandon Democrats and put all their eggs in the Republican basket. Let them suffer until they learn the error of their ways…or don’t. Cuz this is America and it’s pretty stupid so there may not be any lessons learned.

    They really don’t have to do anything. And shouldn’t.


  • Things are so polarised that Republican voters will seemingly accept anything of their party rather than accept a Democrat.

    So, like Nazis?

    Not sure if people get this yet or not. We either crush them in the next election or we end up physically fighting them. This is how fascism works. They have signaled to us that there is no red line for them regarding their own representatives. None. They will absolutely allow this to go all the way unless we stop them. And, at this point, I’m not sure the election thing is going to work because when fascists are in control, they tend to not allow fair elections. I mean they attempted a violent insurrection the last time they lost. Who actually thinks they’re going to allow a fair election?





  • I mean how many times do we have to learn the hard way that America won’t elect a woman to be president?

    Look at this country.

    It’s a shitshow.

    It didn’t elect a woman when the other option was a felon, rapist, insurrectionist manchild with one failed presidency and two impeachments already under his belt.

    Do we really want to do this again when the stakes are so unbelievably high?

    Goddamn. People need to get their heads screwed on straight. She isn’t just a woman, she’s also profoundly hated by a lot of Americans for being so progressive. Why the fuck would we do this to ourselves? I mean America wouldn’t even elect Bernie, the male version of her with a lot more experience.

    WE NEED TO START LIVING IN REALITY.

    I like AOC. I respect her for what she does. But she’s not going to be president in 2028.




  • American here.

    Because Americans are stupid.

    Well, enough are anyway.

    This is the country that made a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist with one failed presidency under his belt our leader…again.

    We did already impeach him…twice. But now Republicans are in total control (see stupid Americans comment above), so Republicans would have to impeach him this time, but they’re all spineless fascists, so that isn’t happening. In America impeachment is just the first step, then the Senate has to actually remove them. After the first two impeachments the spineless fascist Republicans in the Senate refused to remove him, even though it was at the very end of his first term and gave them the perfect opportunity to permanently rid themselves of him. But again, they are spineless fascists.

    Why do many Americans support him? It’s a combination of stupidity, ignorance, hate, and fear. Humans who don’t receive a proper education or upbringing end up being easily manipulated by those things. That’s the case here in America. Expect it to get a whole lot worse.






  • You’d have to be massively stupid and/or a traitor not to vote for it.

    The enemies of democracy are cheating to add more representatives to their side. We would be stupid not to add more to our side. And it expires after Trump’s term. So it’s not a permanent thing. I wouldn’t be comfortable with it if it was permanent.

    In a war, if you sit idly by and watch as your enemy’s army grows in size while you don’t do the same, you lose. Simple as that.

    P.S. Fuck Arnold Schwarzenegger for releasing that anti prop 50 ad. Fucking idiot.
