Trump is the unmasked version of what US politics has always been
This is exactly it.
We didn’t just become fascist. It’s just that the outgroups are now visible to certain people and social classes who were previously shielded from views
The ones starting to see fascism now have been shielded from its impact by privilege, until now (first they came…). While leftists and marginalized groups have been saying for decades that fascism is here and it’s bipartisan we’ve been told to STFU.
More to the point, those groups are the ones now holding power. They’ve always been around, but not held this kind of power in much of the US in a long time.
Only what about 5-10% of people believe. The rest were just too stupid to know better and voted along with them or didn’t vote against it.
5-10% of American voters is still multiple millions of people who are behaving like rabid dogs right now.
If those votes went towards the duopoly they didn’t vote against it.
Yes he does. Ask Putin.
32 years ago, Boris Yeltsin used tanks to shell the halls of Moscow’s Parliament.
Gotta wonder how long it’ll be until Trump’s calling in an airstrike on The Capital Building in DC.
I would say that Trump has a Divine Mandate to punish evil nation for all of its crimes.
He is the Find Out after 60 years of Fucking Around with Nixon/Reaganism. Bringing back to the homeland what we so callously inflicted onto Cuba and Nicaragua and Vietnam and Iran/Iraq.
If there are IDF-trained ICE agents kicking down our doors, shooting our dogs, raping our kids, and burning down our homes in another couple of years, we’ll know where they came from.
The good old Imperial Boomerang.
I remember when Anduril dropped their first flashy video for their first drone. A friend of mine was working for a company doing online ad-work for Anduril and they showed the video to him and his coworkers. He made the joke “at least we know what the drones that will be chasing us down in a few years will look like” which went down like a brick with his coworkers and boss. I of course agreed with his assessment when he related the story to me.
America the problem is this effects the whole world. He does not have a mandate to destroy the world I just wish the rest of the world would just sanction America and move on but they are to busy sucking him off.
