Remember in the 2016 campaign when he said “Maybe some of those second amendment people can do something about it”?
Good times.
Oh yeah. Yeah he did say that.
Yeah.
Just one of those times a president called for someone to be murdered as if he’s some Mafia don.
Oops, all of the 2A “what if we need to fight tyranny?” people were right? Too bad most of them love tyranny…
Probably his own indifference. He clearly has no morals, and he’ll be surrounded by even more comically evil villains, but I suspect they’ll have a problem getting him to care about their pet evil plans. If it isn’t making him money or jerking off his ego, he seems to have, traditionally at least, not cared.
Like most narcissists, he craves the approval of others, so he’ll sign whatever they put in front of him.
death
Dementia.
Nah. Reagan did a lot of damage while a president with dementia.
Hopefully old age. Though, I guess that’s both of them.
A massive heart attack, the man child eats like an unrestrained 5 year old.
If he doesn’t control the house or senate he’s limited in what he can do. All the more reason to vote, even if you’re not voting for the presidency itself.
Armed rebellion. I’m not advocating it. I’m only saying that’s what it’d take. Which is why my ass is overseas if he gets back into office.
Just be careful to have plans for before they restrict travel. It’s very popular with Russian allies, and similarly with other autocrats
Personally, while I’m aware of how that’s happened in other places, I don’t see the American public allowing that immediately. It seems to me like it’d have to be a mildly (at least) slow roll to get there. But there’s a ton of other evil shit I could see happening on day one to thunderous applause.
Covid had plenty of travel restrictions, took less than a week to set them up. There’s already issue with people being falsely flagged as terrorist or other no-flight risk, and with some of the anti-leftist rhetoric it’s not a big leap to make. Also it’s entirely in line with Russia labelling LGBT as terrorists, which several GOP/MAGAts are breathing heavily over.
I hope you’re right, I just don’t see anything but decorum stopping them, and they’ve repeatedly thrown that out the window.
I’ve long accepted that if / when we reach the point of a fascist state rounding people up, my name will be on those lists due to my internet history. I’m just counting on the fascists needing a bit of time to get organized as I flee. Hope I’m right.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In his book American Resistance, David Rothkopf argues that many such officials across different ages acted “in an informal alliance” during Trump’s first term to keep him “from doing irreparable damage to the United States.”
Jeffrey Clark, a Justice Department official, made clear he would happily denounce swing state election results as fraudulent if Trump put him in charge of DOJ.
In Trump’s first term, he adopted House Speaker Paul Ryan’s legislative agenda of repealing Obamacare and cutting taxes, shelving his own hopes for an infrastructure bill due to lack of GOP support.
One of Trump’s most consistently expressed opinions is that he would like his political enemies — a broadly defined group that stretches from Joe Biden to his own former appointees John Kelly and Bill Barr — to be prosecuted.
Last year, the Washington Post reported that Trump’s team had drafted a second-term plan to invoke the act on his first day in office so he could “deploy the military against civil demonstrations.” What would happen next would be anyone’s guess.
And one scary part of the 2020 election crisis is that it actually wouldn’t have been that difficult, if Republican officials in key states were sufficiently corrupt, to throw out Biden’s wins or at least stall the process of certifying the outcome.
The original article contains 3,666 words, the summary contains 215 words. Saved 94%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
If I’m still alive and he wins, I’m gonna fucking kill myself. I’m not dealing with 4 (or more) years of his bullshit.
My dude, it’s not worth it. You have other options, like moving.
You cannot move out of the US unless you have A LOT of money.
But you can move within the US to a place where his people have less direct control over the local government. That’s what I’m doing.
Not with that attitude
certainly not the Democrats, they’re too busy being enablers
Hey hey - are you looking for them to issue a statement?!
They’ll do it, mister! Ho hooo - you better believe they will. And it’s gonna say they’re VERY CONCERNED. Hah?! Yeah! Yeah who’s sitting by now?!
Vigilantes?
Diapers, or lack thereof
Personal friendship with Putin to block China?
