    That’s because fascists make you look at a problem and then suggest themselves as the solution. Whatever problem ruffles the most feathers will be part of their campaign. In Trumps case it’s immigrants, deep state, and wokeism. The rest of his agenda gets ignored. Tax cuts for the rich, power to the president, imperialism, etc. It’s all meaningless as long as you are mad at something.

    They wanted him in the white house, but they also wanted the democrats to stop him from implementing the crazy stuff he proposed. They wanted a reason to complain about democrats blocking stuff - then democrats came up a couple of votes short in both house and senate.

    They support his agenda. Just not when it happens to them, they just want others to suffer.

    You know what? At this point it wouldn’t surprise me if they didn’t.

    I didn’t wanna get all BlueAnon at first but some of the shit these assholes have said are almost hinting that they rigged some swing states and just have to fucking brag about it.

    Bullshit, they do.

    At this point, he’s not only irreprarably gutting and destroying everything for consumers, everything for the environment, etc, he is also beheading the military to ensure he can just stay in power after these four years end.

    Nobody does anything, everyone let it happen. Yeah yeah, sometimes someone resigns in protest, making it even easier for trump to do all this, and sometimes someone even speaks up and says the obvious: “I think this is bad!” Oooooh, color me impressed.

    Trump is speed running the USA to a dictatorship and with now the military gutted, I’d say its too late to stop him.

    Where from there? Once he has full control over the armed forces what are his limits? He can simply subjugate any country he wants. Don’t want to be my slaves? Let me obliterate your capital and ask again. I truly see this as an option.

    Think I’m crazy? Have you been paying attention? You have christofascists in charge who literally want to see the world end so that “Christ will return” or some delusional shit.trumo is willing to do whatever, no holds barred, no limits so far. He’s threatened Panama, Denmark and Canada and I guarantee you he’ll be back to get those countries whether they want to or not.

    I’m Canadian, this situation scares the shit out of me.

    I think that right now, the USA is a bigger threat to the world than China and Russia have ever been. Its military is multiple times the size of everyone else combined, they have no sense of consequences for actions so nuking a nation is fine, what is the worst they can happen? Hell, I fully expect him to drop some on Mexico City just to send a message and for fun because the racists will feel there are too many Mexicans. Again, think I’m crazy? Do you really believe that Cheeto and his theocrazy guys would not be capable of doing this?

    They very very much are.

    I’m at the point where I think Canada, Panama are fucked within the year. Make no mistake though, the rest of the world will follow

    Fundamentally, if you voted for Trump you do support his agenda. That’s how voting works.

    You just don’t want to own it.

    There are zero excuses that anyone can use to claim that they didn’t know what Trump was going to do or that it would be this bad. We lived through the first term where we saw the shit he was doing. We saw every tweet, post, and video where he said exactly what he wanted to do. Remember when he literally said he wanted to be a dictator? Yea, it was 100% out there the whole time. If that wasn’t enough, every word out of his mouth has been hate directed at some demographic. Deciding that that was acceptable was already too much. I will never forgive anyone that voted for that Nazi.
