      It’s such a bald faced admission that they don’t actually care what he does, it’s all performative. And I’m not just talking about Harris, all the libs cry “trump is a fascist America is doomed” yet go on living life like nothing is happening. If they actually felt threatened by it you’d think they’d organize or at least try and make the democratic party provide some legitimate opposition. Hell, if Harris actually thought that trump is the next hitler and this is the last election in America why not drone strike his ass?

      The last few years made me understand Nazi Germany a lot more tbh. I (naively in a lib manner) used to not understand how they reached the point of gas chambers and concentration camps and thought it was essentially an aberration and that we could and would take “never again” seriously. Watching the rise of the Fourth Reich (arguments could be made that amerikkka was already the Fourth Reich but I digress) has made it clear to me that the majority of white settlers would be are apathetic to death squads rounding up “undesirables” for mass murder.

    He’s such a big evil apocalyptic threat that you dumb idiots have to hold your nose and support a genocide to stop him, but also no we won’t just drone strike him and in fact I will be personally calling him to say congrats when he wins.

    It all meant less than nothing to these people, and anyone still defending this is unsalvagable

      I took a VERY small peek at reddit stormfront just now.

      There’s a Jimmy Kimmel crying video upvoted w/ 20K likes on the politics sub.

      First comment is along the lines of “I saw voters interviewed and they’re so fucking dumb! They didn’t even know who was running!”

      Yeah, Americans are ignorant dinguses. Welcome to America.

      If they want random Bob on the street to know who is running and care then maybe, juuuuust maybe, the message can’t only be “Nothing will change. Everything is great already! And if you don’t vote for me, America will be Nazi Germany! But no, I won’t actually do anything about the guy we call Adolf Hitler. That would be wrong!”

      It needs to be “Trump bad” sure, ok. Then also a few bare minimum first 100 days promises. Trump promised the hogs escalated deportations, killing drug dealers, finishing the genocide quickly so they don’t have to look at it. Adolf shit.

      Maybe the answer can’t be “I will deport… less? maybe? immigrants for no apparent reason.” It needs to be “Trump is following the same fascist logic of axis leaders during WWII. He’s called fellow Americans, documented people living and working legally in the United States, vermin and poison. Instead of dehumanizing these people, I will be granting them citizenship which will be a boon to our economy and communities.”

      Instead of “Trump wants to repeal (shitty) Obamacare!” It needs to be “Obamacare was a start, but it didn’t go anywhere far enough. I will be working in the first 100 days to lower the Medicare eligibility age to 55. With that done, I will work with Congress when possible, but go around them when required, to further lower the age of eligibility with an aim towards everyone being eligible.”

      Solid, plausible promises of things she could have forced through quickly with additional long term plans. You meet the promise, and if you get the extra part that’s just free real estate for re-election…

      But clearly liberals, democrats, have absolutely no desire to improve things. They only wish to go rightward… but do it “respectfully.” When the SWAT team kicks in your neighbor’s door looking for an alleged “illegal immigrant” that Nosey Martha down the street falsely reported to JD’s Gestapo because he “looked a little tan”… liberals want the agents and cops to say “Please, drop to your knees with your hands in the air, motherfuckers!” as they flashbang the baby crib and, of course, shoot Fido 5 times in the chest with their MP5.

        Pretty sure her answer was “I will deport more and treat them even more horribly” trying to out republican to the republicans instead of appealing to any Americans with a conscience.

            John Roberts has made his decision, now let him enforce it

            More seriously you probably wouldn’t need to issue any new executive orders, signing the existing presidential emergency action documents is probably sufficient, plus declaring a couple of people terrorists

          They have been hitting him with the heart-attack gun continuously since he started running for President, but because his heart is constantly failing on its own, all the gun is doing is restarting it.

      we should peacefully give him the reigns of the country

      there are 3 options here

      1. You dont believe point 1
      2. You dont belive point 2
      3. You want adolf hitler to lead your country

        Bold of you to assume the US is my country, or that I’d want Orange Hitler to lead it if it was.

        But, see, before anything else, I am a one person, with marginal zero power compared to even the Dems, yet they’re the ones who have so far given zero reason to believe that they’d prevent it. Like, come on, we just came out of some spectacular election process! And second, what I’m going for is that she’s showing more respect towards the process than he ever did. Moral high ground or whatever, it’s just not her race anylonger. There’s lots of people who can fight Trump for power, and, if you ask me, it’s about time most of them stopped being lazy.

          Mate they are literally in office. They can legally drone strike Trump if they fucking want to. They’re perfect happy to drone strike tens of thousands of children, but not the fascist ending america? Please think, please put the pieces together.

          They do not mind that he’s taking power. American democracy is kabuki theater. Either they don’t really believe their rhetoric about him being a fascist intending to end democracy in america or they agree with it and are happily handing over power for that to happen - pick one. Their actions do not match the existential rhetoric.

        If they did, they’d not be democrats. What (well, who) you’re thinking of, is anarchists and revolutionaries.

        Come on, try to at least pretend you’re intellectually honest, we all know where the Dem party comes from.

          Imagine caring more about Jan 6th than the thousands of dead Palestinian children

          Just by the numbers libs you may be even more deranged than actual zionists who won’t shut up about Oct 7th because at least those fascists have some dead bodies they can point to (of course that doesn’t justify the genocide, you know the one you voted for) but you care more about muh civility than human lives

          For the record I support Hamas and Oct 7th and I think Jan 6th was hilarious

            Imagine thinking you can read my mind, and not understanding context. Oh wait! it’s 2024.

            I’ve never implied that I care more about civility than human lives, I’m only saying it’s her place to show civility now. Lots of people elsewhere to fight- oh wait! They don’t care.

            What would you think the overall response would be if, with so far nothing legally indicating a stolen election, Harris refused to acknowledge the results and proceed with the usual ceremony?
