Why isn't this fucking statement from Motherfucker at the top of every media outlet?

In four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote.


Fucking dicktator wannabe saying it out loud, eat a bag of phallic symbols, shitbag.

than any of the legacy for-profit news media. I hear their reporting all the time as a regular listener.

Since they are dependent on Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding for much of their work, and that is subject to appropriations, they have to be accurate without being inflammatory. The Tea Party / MAGA wing have been trying to defund them for years. Project 2025's plan is to follow through.

Authoritarianism became really obvious at the end as he fired the heads of lots of agencies and filled them with loyalists. Then encouraged his dumbest supporters to attack the Capitol to overturn the election results. He really doesn't like people voting against him, so might as well end elections permanently. And his appointed judges will approve it.

To all the dispossessed, the disgruntled, the deplorables, the lazy underachievers, the anarchists, and yes, the deviant kiddie gropers and MoFos!

'Youse guys, democracy isn't working for you, right?
It's too much of an effort, right? You aren't as wealthy as you should be, your neighbour has a nicer house, car and wife - Democracy has let you down!
Time to rise up, express your anguish, and help me make this failed Democracy dead and buried!"

Is Democracy US style perfect?
No of course not, but it is so much better than what Trump wants for the future.

If you believe in reincarnation, Trump is Hitler and a few other dictators rolled into one.

If you believe in Science, Trump is the worst possible genetic combination filtered down his family tree.

Some Democrats say his comments, directed at a Christian audience, signaled his plans to be a dictator. His campaign says he was talking about ‘uniting’ the country, and experts point to his ‘deliberately ambiguous’ speaking style.


It's 3rd or 4th on their Election 2024 page.

There is no ambiguity in that thing's statement. Here we go again. Trump voters:
I like that 45 says what 45 means.

Also Trump Voters:

Oh - 45 didn't mean that.
