Look, my ability to detect irony has physically atrophied in the Trump era, so this question is genuine: Are they trying to incite violent revolution against the billionaire class?
Because you just can't make up shit as bad as the way these fuck operate.
Yes! They are desperate for a civil war. The longer they go without it, the more support they lose, and the more the different factions on the right begin to splinter.
They want a civil war, or rather a cultural war between civilians, to detract from a class war. They want the civilians to be fighting among themselves (i.e. left vs right), rather than uniting against ruthless billionaires and grifters in the government. Having a civil war would also make some of their false claims become "true", e.g. that cities are "war zones" and that they "need" to utilize the Insurrection Act and put the military everywhere without any remaining legal obstructions. I mean they still do it partially already, which is bad enough, but when a civil war would actually exist (like they claim), then they could also claim that what they were lying about the whole time is actually "true" (just not at all the way they said it to be, but the end result would be kind of the same: war zones inside cities) and they'd be legally allowed to be even more oppressive than they are already. It would increase their power overall. It would lead to a guaranteed dictatorship. Dictators love using "emergencies" to grab full, unrestricted power. So it's best to never aid them while they try to construct an emergency where there is none. That exposes their lies better.
I don't think they care. They've been insulated so long they think it'll never happen to them.
I am once again wondering when the brave and free american people will stand up to this corruption in a meaningful way
they're getting indicted by the state for their political positions
sounds like they didn't do something meaningful enough, then
don't get me wrong, some people need to do that. but other people also need to do more.
I'm convinced Trump is trying with the way he speaks about random stuff, and way too on the nose. But he knows what he can't say, or who he can't speak against without getting another ear shot at. There's no way he can possibly be this dumb...... Can he?
I think if they really want to give all the hoi polloi the finger, they need to speed up the ballroom completion, then throw King Louis XVI themed parties about every week. All while yanking things like ACA and SNAP....
Not one to be outdone by let them eat cake, yeah? A noble effort
"I'm not sure I'll make it into heaven."
Gee I wonder why.
Something something camel something eye of needle, doesn't matter, he didn't read it
*couldn't
If Trump were actually illiterate, why would he keep a book of Hitler's speeches next to his bed?
Checkmate, liberal!
No wonder the Confederate base are so angry all the time - the amount of effort it must take to sustain the cognitive dissonance between watching the pedo-in-chief flip virtually all of America the bird, partying like Gatsby while people are getting ready to starve, and also believing at the same time that he's for "The Forgotten Man", must cause a lot of pain.
Those people are willing to put up with anything, just to get their hate and resentment validated.
What do you mean everything is fine just listen to faux news, oh it's not fine? Well faux news says it's the democrats fault, oh trump is spending money, faux news says it's money taken from immigrants drug money
Something something the swamp....
Republican projection. Like voter fraud.
Trump slammed for...
One does not "slam" a king.
Ask Charles the first
He is the American emperor Nero
I could he do any less villian arechetypes. Its like let them eat cake.
"Slammed" huh?
Slammed!
And welcome to the jam!
History doesn’t always repeat but it does very often rhymes.
Pedo Antoinette
Humans are designed to exist in tribes of about 200 people. Those 200 are your people, and folks beyond that are merely theoretical. So if you are a billionaire, and only hang with the other billionaires, you can't actually believe that the other 8 billion people in the world matter.
I thought all human life was sacred? Why force women to give birth if you have no use for everyone outside of your "tribe"
