We have Project 2025 out there literally announcing the end of democracy should a republican president be voted in. Their plan is to enact Schedule F which allows the prez to kick people from the senate and place his own chosen people there and to allow the prez to essentially take over the whole executive branch of the government.

LIKE GODDAMMIT, THERE'S A DICTATORSHIP UNDER CONSTRUCTION! WHY ISN'T THIS EVEN NEWSWORTHY? WHY DOES THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA SOLELY FOCUS ON THE CLIMATE ASPECT ON PROJECT 2025? IT'S LITERALLY THE PLAN TO END DEMOCRACY! AND OF COURSE LGBTQIA+ PEOPLE!

I was wondering if the actual quote was something more weaselly than that but nope.

Beck: "If you become president will you lock people up?"

Trump: “The answer is you have no choice, because they’re doing it to us.”

Can the trial get any faster? This is ridiculous...

This dude absolutely cannot get near the white house again.

Well he campaigned on "lock her up" and despite nearly a dozen investigations and her testifying in front of Congress for 10 hours, guess what happened? Zippity doo daa

His entire campaign in 2016 was 'locking up' Hillary. If he wasn't able to accomplish that in 4 years, what makes him think he can follow through with this promise now that he has numerous enemies on both sides of the aisle?

Nothing short of a full-blown Shutzstaffel will fulfill even a fraction of his current campaign promises.

Can this dude just have a heart attack already

What else would this douchebag do, really? He had 4 years and the only thing he "accomplished" was tax breaks for the elite.

Of course this tiny petty man will use the power of the office to exact revenge. He's not going to do anything for Americans.

They aren't even hiding that they are wanna-be dictators anymore.
And "freedom" loving conservatives just cheer this on.
They "love" America so much, they want to destroy our democracy. The level of hypocrisy amongst the Right is astonishing.

That sure sounds like a violation of his terms of release in his court cases.

Doesn't this completely violate the terms of his release on bail?

So they screech about the justice system being weaponized because they're being tried and prosecuted for their crimes, and then turn around and in the same breath just flat out say they'll weaponize the justice system. Classic case of saying the quiet part out loud.

They need to ask ab9ut this during these republican debate/PR events. Do you support tump's call tto arrest his political opponents?" Yes or no,

Once again the Right is accusing the Left of things the Right wants to do.

Pretty sneaky trick really.

Say your enemy is going to do something

Do it

Get told "Hey you're doing X"

Tell them "Projecting much? Everyone knows you're the one who's doing X, I even said so before you accused me of anything!"

The language of every abuser and totalitarian ever: "Look at what you made me do."

Apart from the whole dictator thing, they had the presedential power for 4 years and managed to lock up exactly nobody.... Not saying they're not dangerous but why would their base believe them this time, action should really speak louder than words with those simpletons and Trump has been all words.

💀

He'll have to find a way to get Congress to approve a bill that eliminates themselves and the judicial branch of government first.

That's why he thinks it's a witch hunt. It's always projection.

I mean, I believe he will try.

All that’s missing is him huffing “don’t you know who I am??” While clutching his pearls.
