A reminder that about half the country does not like Trump. Not actually a 'handful'. Trump is declaring a landslide for the fact that he got all three, house senate and executive, plus he already had the supreme court. Still, half the country does not like Trump, yet he will be able to wield whatever power he chooses, and he is already choosing to do so. Project 2025 is back on even though he denied having anything to do with it. I expect nationwide abortion bans, christianity taught in schools, massive detention camps (those have ALWAYS worked out in american history right?), skyrocketing inflation due to tariffs, and I also expect the morons that voted for him to cheer him on while they are getting fucked by him. Ongoing corruption, regular violations of the constitution.... but hey, who needs a constitution when 'only a handful of people' are objecting..... and there is no one left to check it..... as outlined in the constitution..... NOT a handful of people at all, dislike this human piece of shit who will still go down in history as one of the most corrupt, criminal and seditious presidents in the country's history. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi tk, Re: I also expect the morons that voted for him to cheer him on while they are getting fucked by him. The problem is that they are too stupid to know that he did it to them.

The first American Civil War was bloody, long-winded and wrecked large parts of the Eastern Seaboard. Civil Wars are always messy and bloody. The amount of blood shed is a direct reflection of the amount of love beforehand. .... similar to divorce court ....

That is because the USA is one of the few nations large enough to build everything consumers need within their own borders: clothing, oil, housing, food, automobiles, computers. etc. While your American-made computer may not have the latest semi-conductor (only made in Taiwan) but it will still be smarter than you. The USA is one of the few nations that can afford to ignore things outside its borders. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,442 #81 November 23, 2024 I think the isolation and echo chambers that are built by some media are partly responsible, too. They make comfy little intellectual rooms, and advertise them where customers will go -- thereby making money for the advertisers, eh? Wendy P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Godwin himself on Trump's similiarites to Hitler: "There’s nothing categorically wrong with Biden’s — or anyone else’s — comparison of Trump calling people vermin or talking about blood poisoning to Hitler. . . . Trump knows what he’s doing. I think he chose that rhetoric on purpose. But yeah, there are some real similarities. If you’ve read Hitler’s own writing — which I don’t recommend to anyone, by the way — you see a dehumanizing dimension throughout, but the speeches are an even more interesting case." So per Godwin himself, the narrative is accurate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So to summarize, you said that people "who had learned or read what actual nazis were like" make no comparisons between Hitler and Trump. I posted the opinions of two Holocaust survivors who made such comparisons. Now you claim they don't count. With logic like that, you could be a great contributor to FOX News, Alex Jones or Breitbart. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Woodford, South African Steve, was calling for a civil war if Trump lost, openly on FB. Truth Social is filled with people that openly call for the overthrow of the american government by force. For that matter, NextDoor is also a forum for seditious cocksuckers..... I am not surprised.... but since Trump won, maybe we will avoid that part - but they are all still seditious assholes, and I would not sell them my snot.
