Oh dear how did this happen
Arm up.
He knows something we don’t. Something like, there’s not going to be any election.
He doesn’t know but he’s been priming us for it since 2021
You know what? I think its time to set up an seperate assembly of some sort to address the actual problems of the people. Let’s just pat the rich on the head, let Congress go sniff tRump’s farts, then go govern the addressing of actual problems (the unaffordablility of food, the lack of healthcare to the masses, global heating, AI causing mass unemployment, etc.). Our government clearly refuses to address the actual problems of the masses, so lets collectively assemble a seperate but equal governing body to address them ourselves.
He’s already incoherent much of the time; he’ll be in memory care by then.
Fun fact: Trump is the same age now that Biden was in 2022.
Fun fact: Obama is younger now than Donald Trump was when he took office.
He’s not kidding. He’s building a fucking ballroom, a project that will go past 2029. He has no intention of ever leaving office. He won’t leave unless physically forced to. Fuck you if you think the government will make him leave just because the law says they will
I think a cardiovascular event will sort it out eventually. Let’s hope it happens sooner rather than later.
Should have happened 30 years ago.
But will that end the fascist regime?
Probably not, but at least the personality cult will after not long, and until that It’s going to be funny as shit seeing C.F. Vance flailing around trying to take it over.
It amazes me that Trump has such a cult, at least with Hitler he was famed for his speeches being mesmerizing in a vaguely coherent fashion while appealing to the wildly racist and anti Semitic base, Trump just comes across as a rambling, racist Grandpa Simpson if he had a grade four concussion.
Three guesses as to why he wants to build a bunker underneath.
To follow in his hero Hitler’s footsteps?
I love when media plays stupid. It isn’t a joke.
Fuck the media. They should have been reporting on project 2025 nonstop during the election. Somehow it’s not considered “objective” reporting to say when a political party are objectively fascists who intend to strip away people’s rights
Maddow did. Every day. MSNBC
Id love to see his fucking skull crack a joke
It’d get more laughs than his “joke” about disregarding the peaceful transfer of power.
It’s a joke in that he doesn’t plan on leaving even then.
What does that say about America’s politics when our only hope of stopping Trump is McDonald’s
Americans the ones who need guns to protect from government. Their plan is just wait no wonder their left is considered so weak.
We don’t have guns to protect from the government. The Whiskey Rebellion in 1794 proved that even when America was new and the Feds were armed with the same equipment as the rebels were there was no way to beat them if they decided to turn against us. Now we have a militarized police force, surveillance state, and the military. The guns are around to deal with your MAGA neighbor when the country finally cracks and turns into the Troubles or Balkanizes.
I don’t think his death will even solve this problem. Vance will probably be worse
Have you seen the instructions for eating an elephant?
One bite at a time.
Even a baby step in the right direction is the right direction.
Thank you. I live for comments like these. I feel this sentiment is lost on most these days.
Do you want a civil war? Because this is how you get a civil war.
The only people willing to do civil war in a meaningful number are being pardoned for j6.
I’ve said this 100 times. Our side is woefully unprepared and unskilled in this area.
Plenty of Dems know how to shoot and own a gun.
That’s not what I was arguing. And I didn’t specify Dems. They’re part of the problem because they keep capitulating to the GOP.
Review on your own the percentage of guns registered to Dems vs GOP. Then, remove party monikers and see where the guns are for Left vs Right.
Last exercise… Do you think if pressed MTG or Tucker would fight for or against whatever alliance forms for Trump? Will the lines be ideological or will they be blurry? Will your own classical beliefs allow you to fight alongside someone who is ideologically different to you but going after the same target? Who leads this hypothetical side?
Sure but they won’t do any thing as is the democratic way. Be a limp noodle.
Time to get busy.
A phrase I heard 20 years ago that stuck with me about people who want to move to the woods if things get bad: “if you aren’t already prepared, it’s too late.”
I hope they were wrong. They probably weren’t, though.
Sun Tzu said the battle is won or lost off the field. Every victor was delulu just enough to win.
“Delulu” is a great word.
The people of Ukraine were woefully unprepared a few years ago as well. People learn quick with the right motivation.
In 2014, the Ukrainian army was fucked. It took 8 years of being occupied for them to “get ready.” They built up and prepared and had the backing of the EU to do so.
Your comparison is not sound.
War is more than shooting guns. Taking down grids and disrupting supply lines are all effective.
I thought Russia would take Ukraine in 3 days. Russia might have a bigger army, but a bigger stick doesn’t mean bigger brain.
Both aides are. In the entire western world, we live a life of luxury and comfort. There is real hunger and poverty, right beside uber eats delivery and people paying for consuming just to document it online.
In order to be able to read and replicate a journal article you really need an advanced degree or to do all the work it takes to get one. That demographic skews fairly heavily in one direction. Masami Tsuchiya only had a master’s degree and he built an entire functioning chemical weapons factory on a fairly limited budget. That was way back in the 90s too. The worst things you could do now are 10x easier and could wipe out millions or billions.
I’ve never read the instructions for how to use a pitchfork yet I feel completely qualified to use one.
Poor Boliviens used humble gardening tools to reclaim their water from Bechtel. But honestly, besides weapons training, we need to study socialist theory abd build a vanguard against reactionaries.
I have always been fascinated by the constant failure of the “paperless” office.
What is it about holding a piece of paper in your hand?
It’s tangible. I have it in my hand. I can trust it. It won’t CHANGE tomorrow.
Trump CHANGES tomorrow CONSTANTLY.
This “paperless” politician has FAILED.
Cool. Do you have one at the ready? Are you able to find one if you don’t when stores are closed down? When was the last time you saw a pitchfork at the hardware store?
If you’re in a rural area, you’ll be more likely to respond with, “Last week,” but when shit goes down, it won’t be in the 'burbs or in the country. That’s where it’ll end up, though.
Steal this book.
Fuck yeah I want a civil war
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
It says they can’t be elected to office. What about when he cancels elections and extends his existing term indefinitely?
You don’t get to remain in office in the USA without winning an election.
You see, they forgot to define “Term”. Just because there’s an election doesn’t mean it’s a term. It really means you get a second chance if you’re voted out, but not a third. Unless…
-SCOTUS 2028, Probably
Technically, “Election” is not the only way to become president. He is eligible for other roles in the line of succession. Speaker of the House can be anyone that the House chooses, not necessarily a member of the House.
We’re a “Night of the Long Knives” away from the kind of bullshit that would put him back in the White House.
In before SCOTUS declares US Constitution unconstitutional.
(too late?)
It only says a person can be elected to at most two terms. It doesn’t say they can’t be perpetually elected Speaker of the House and then succeed to President when the elected President and Vice President both resign. So that’s why we need a Democratic-controlled Congress to elect Obama as Speaker and then impeach and remove Trump and Vance.
Mister we could use a man like Barack Obama again…
Laws without enforcement are just words on a piece of paper.
Not to mention, amendments have been repealed before. And if anybody thinks that Trump will do it through official channels, assuming he bothers, I have a bridge to sell them.
That part.
Something something felon…
I can’t wait until he suggests his eldest son should take over after he dies because how much worse can things get?
I don’t think Trump likes his kids that much.
He’s also worked fairly hard to not have a successor, because he’s a malignant narcissist who doesn’t care what happens after he’s gone.
His kids don’t seem to have inherited the charisma gene.
I don’t see how trump is considered charismatic.
His base does though, and that’s what matters. There’s a Trump/MAGA merch store in the same shopping center as the liquor store I frequent, and they’re making bank. I’ve never seen that store empty.
There was a Trump rally in my area in 2016, and the line of people waiting to get in was so long that the State Troopers shut down a lane of the highway to make room for more people.
Remember the dad who murdered his own daughter over an argument about Trump? Do you think that guy would say Trump has charisma?
I personally can’t stand Trump, but he definitely has “A personal magic of leadership arousing special popular loyalty or enthusiasm for a public figure (such as a political leader).”, which is literally the definition of charisma.
Yeah… jokes. Anything bad he says is always a joke, even when it isn’t. Hell, especially when it isn’t. These stupid media fuckers need to stop with the damn kid gloves. But hey, long as they get their money they don’t give a fuck about us, hell, they’ll even sell us out to the highest bidder.
It’s literally never a joke with this guy
Haha its all fun and games until people break and a prominent white building gets burned down during a very important meeting!
As long as the entire administration is there.
“Cracks a joke”. Nobody just says “cracks” that way. Clickbait title choice.
Maybe where you’re from but globally “cracks a joke” is a common phrase.
“Crack a joke” is in fact an English language idiom.
