Former U.S. President and presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump voiced strong criticism of American aid to Ukraine at a campaign rally in Detroit on June 15.
What really keeps me up at night is wondering what's next? What comes after tRump? Is there an end in sight? Will these Maga morons keep getting dumber/more extreme? I think so.
There is no end if our government doesn't start taking these christian nationalists as a serious threat. Not to worry, three generations as a theocracy will rip this entire nation to threads.
What's scarier is; it might not. It might just radically alter the culture to being radically restrictive to a new theocratic orthodoxy. Megachurches combining to create new variants on the bible and its interpretation. A new set of "intellectuals" re-writing the constitution under divine providence. A new geopolitics, corporate structures, and large companies willing to go along with it.
It won’t matter if Trump wins. Plans to become a dictator aside, he’s going to help Netanyahu eradicate Palestine while withdrawing support from Ukraine, Taiwan, and the Philippines in the name of isolationism.
He’s going to start WWIII by letting Putin and Xi do whatever they want.
The Heritage Foundation (which was founded by White Supremacist adjacent people) are behind Project 2025 (which is aimed at enacting Unitary Executive Theory, aka dictatorship) - come up with a plan EVERY election cycle, and they don't throw away their old aims and plans, they reworked them and fold them into the next attempt.
So I think your prediction is correct, the MAGA republican problem won't go away, it will just keep folding into its self.
These people are seriously fucking scary. Reading roman history with all it's conspiracies, government takeovers etc used to seem like fiction, a relic of the past. But no, we exist on a planet where rich old people use their money and power to manipulate and oppress the masses for their own gain. And there's no solution. How do you fight these people when they've weaponized ignorance and convinced a signification portion of their voter base to vote against their own interests?
After tRump is gone there will be an endless supply of copycat wannabe dictators trying to one up the sHitler himself.
You don’t even need to look too far ahead in future or debate hypotheticals - just look at the language and demeanor of many of republican candidates like Kari Lame, Marge Traitor, Lauren Gropert, that Nazi guy running for NC governor, and many many more to list here.
The MAGA morons are the tools used by the far right leaders to get their way. Many of them are just terrified due to an intense ignorance and if they got smarter we might actually be doing ok.
That's why we have to oppose them. It's exhausting, but it's important and the alternative is more, worse Trumps.
So take a break if you need to, practice self-care. And then let's all vote, volunteer, and donate to make the world better. Please, it's that important...
What's sad is that we are quite possibly on the precipice on making some very big leaps forward, as humanity. I'm talking extreme leaps, ones that would hopefully invalidate the backward rubes and their positions - leaps that might even effectively fix their bad thinking.
But these assclowns might have us completely fumble at the goal line.
I’m sure they will, but will another Maga Supreme ooze into their center? Hopefully if they don’t find another Grand Cheetoh, they’ll just degenerate into a scattering of loonies we can ignore
Hitlet was like 30. Trump is like 85. I agree with you, but I'd say it's a coin toss Trump drops dead by July 6, nevermind January 6, that fat old fuck. Not sure he's going to mount a comeback.
Well, not just the FBI, please. But yes, send them in to start making arrests prior to the shit really happening. But preemptively set up the National Guard to let those that plan on fucking around, to REALLY fucking find out this time. Not just one Ashley Babbitt.
Last time I remember so many things he said right before, and me thinking "is he going to stage a coup? He's pretty much saying he's going to scare a coup but Naaahh, even trump can't be THAT insane.
I was naive, but why the fuck was the FBI, DHS, etc naive on this?
this comment is entirely correct, due to the use of quotes. The far left isn't telling you not to vote. The "far left" is. Those saying that are not left. Those comments are the output of the right.
Voter suppression is their game. status quo at worst. third reich at best.
The fact that there's a lot of “leftists” on social media that propose voting third party in the next US general election. Due to the spoiler effect, everyone following that advice will help Trump getting elected.
These “leftists” are therefore either idiots or false flag actors (most likely Russian trolls, since Russia is known to both employ them and to benefit a lot from a Trump presidency)
