“Don’t protest or he’ll get mad” is a self-defeating thought.

Good thing Texans want to kill off renewable energy in favour of burning more fossil fuels. I’m sure that’ll help.

They don’t believe in anything. They don’t stand for anything. They won’t fight for anything.

Yes they do. They’re neoliberals. They’ believe in corporate profits. They stand for making money at the expense of you and your family. They’ll fight people who stand against their Israeli genocide.

And they’re all worthless.

It is if no one stops him. The Constitution doesn’t do anything unless people actively uphold it. So far Trump’s gotten away with so many things because no one’s actually stopping him.

I keep waiting for the American public to take a stand, but apparently they’re willing to sit there on the couch while their democracy is stripped away.

They’re not Putin in the effort.

“It wouldn’t be in the air before 2030 at the earliest, long after he’s left office”

He’s not leaving office. He fought against stepping down last time and everyone has given him more power this time. He will never leave that office while he lives.

So now we’re just going to reconfigure our entire society to indulge the fantasies of conspiracy theory weirdos?

Until Americans get off their couch and do something, yes.

At least he’s stopped happily voting for it.

They’ll claim it as a victory that Trump’s winning because they’re all mad they can’t take advantage of the US anymore.

“They arrested someone”

Kidnapped. The word is kidnapped.

It’s already more secure than their Signal chat. I’m sure it’ll be fine.

He needs to be understood by his supporters.

Why would anyone hire a lawyer that rolls over the first time a fascist shows up with demands?

I want a lawyer who will fight for me fully.

Fortunately you’ll move much further up the list alphabetically since you’re rapidly becoming the Fascist States of America.

Pretty sure it’s a reference to goatse

Also “peace of work”

We don’t have any nukes.

Yep, fascism has to have an in-group and an out-group. As they work through the groups of immigrants, trans people, Democrats, etc they need to find new ones to persecute. They’ll work through their own undesirables and then they’re coming for us.

It’s just like Nazi Germany in the 30s. It didn’t take long for Hitler to turn his eyes on Poland.

He will come for us. His talks of the 51st state are not a joke or a bluff. People are not taking it seriously enough.

I wondered when he’d back down, and what excuse he’d give to his followers.
