Sure would be historic to hand unchecked executive power to Donald Trump desperate to evade prosecution and repay favours.
Not in a good way, but historic for sure.

And to punish his perceived enemies, don’t forget that part. And give unchecked power to cronies who openly want to get rid of ‘undesirables’.
The Nazis didn’t go full Jews-in-ovens at the beginning. First they came for the socialists, and the queers, and the political dissidents, and then everyone who wasn’t white, straight, and christian enough.
Fascists eliminate everyone until the only ones left to oppress are themselves. They need an enemy, and if you don’t think they’ll eventually come for you, you’re wrong.
If trump wins, it’ll be historic, all right. Children in 2060 will learn about the 20s and 30s in school as a cautionary tale, and if they’re lucky, some holocaust survivors will still be alive to speak at assemblies. Hopefully those survivors won’t be showing the scars of a nuclear bomb like I saw in school as a child.
According to the modlog someone else (admittedly a slightly trollous user) posted this with the title "Jill Stein ally says the Greens' strategy is about making Harris lose the presidency" and got banned for it based on rule 1. I thought removal was reasonable but apparently the rule says "If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive." Could someone clarify how the alterations to the title didn't make it more descriptive?
I only know this because I was searching for certain keywords and stumbled upon comments in the deleted thread.
It's fucking hilarious considering Harris in polls has the edge in MI, and the Green Party draw last election was almost null.
This is the right response, here. Everybody knows the existing "left" third parties are all either actively steered by 3-letter agencies or only relevant because the main parties get to sponsor them as spoilers for each other.
I wish I had the kind of confidence to make claims like this with a straight face. Politicians are so weird.
