The national party better figure out quickly that the next election isn't going to be
"Blue no matter who"
It's going to be
"More green than blue or else fuck you too!"
As an outsider looking at American politics, "blue no matter who" is a propaganda to condition Americans citizens to always accept the lesser evil, and to not bother to try to lobby or pressure their own representatives to be actually be better.
"Blue no matter who" doesn't mean "vote for the second worst person". What it means is anyone who has any shred of decency isn't a republican anymore, and republicans cannot be allowed to win at any cost, or they will very quickly backslide civil rights and start a war in the Middle East.
I think the Dems will back Mamdani, since he's going to win the primary. There are a lot of naysayers about the Democrats who think otherwise, it will be interesting to watch the space in the next few weeks.
Also, if the Republican pull his citizenship then I'm going to fucking riot.
This is the battle that determines our future. If we lose this, it's war, or submission for years or decades, and then war.
Ideologically divided, yes. That old rift between the two ideologies of "try to govern mostly okay" and "where's my check from AIPAC?".
That would get so much push back. I think it's more likely Mamdani receives the highest award in journalism l, unfortunately.
So, to be a republican you must be a whiny little ass baby
128 Democrats were told by their handlers to let trump do yoohoo's dirty work.
If they already claim for citizenship revokal now, one can imagine how bad it can get when there are actual elections coming ...
So fucking sick of the peter pan party
Republicans start being revolting, very early in their political careers, it seems. Maybe they are born that way.
Raised that way.
What will the average non-bootlicking american will do if this happens? I have hope that this kind of event would be the trigger for the passive majority to actually resist.
Consider this: if ICE took him tomorrow and disappeared him, what would happen realistically?
Those gravy seals would be shot dead by his security detail.
That's what would happen, and why it won't.
If they revoked a U.S. citizens of his citizenship, that will provoke nation wide protests across the U.S., you dont revoked citizenship unless someone has done something extremely egregious, and there are very very few cases of that ever happening in the U.S. (maybe none, I havent looked it up).
I personally will not sit down and just take these wackjobs shit laying down. This country is everybody's, not just the far-right dipshits christofascist playground.
This guy has done literally nothing except want a better future for people. That's not a crime.
they are currently disappearing citizens who are on their way to work. what makes you think people will protest any more or differently than they are?
They've already deported US Citizens without even revoking their citizenship - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/ice-deported-3-children-who-are-u-s-citizens-their-families-lawyers-say
So, we've kinda already crossed that threshold.
A photo of Trump next to a normal (both in looks and mentally) person never stops being surprising, hilarious and disturbing. We all know he both looks and behaves like an absolute clown, but most photos of him are of his goons and/or other dictators (real or wannabes) who all look ridiculous so you don't get that direct comparison.
