Zone1 With 250 years of freedom in the United States, slowly the Communists are taking over. This is just a reminder of what Socialism/Communism is.

Back in the day, everyone was patriotic and wanted freedom, because in a world like that, you werent threatened all the time by Big government.

I said if Trump fails the replacement will be the Marxists and their well funded campaigns.

November, it begins.
In January 2029, it begins in earnest.
Get ready.

Actually, back when that film was made, the rich paid a top marginal rate of 93%, and CEO's only made 10X what a line worker made.

Today, the rich are taxed at a top rate of 37%, and CEO's make 400 times what a line worker makes.

If people are finding socialism "attractive", it's because Capitalism has turned into such a shit sandwich.

They look at China building beautiful new cities, while they pray they don't hit a pothole on the way to work which will saddle them with hundreds of dollars in repair bills they can't pay.

Care to flesh that out a bit?

What Trump has done to destroy our Democracy

• Election legitimacy: Trump’s repeated claims that the 2020 election was stolen — despite courts and election officials finding no evidence of widespread fraud — significantly reduced trust in elections among many Americans. The aftermath culminated in the January 6 United States Capitol attack, which many scholars and officials view as one of the most serious stress tests for modern U.S. democratic institutions.
• Pressure on institutions: He has challenged the independence of institutions such as the judiciary, federal law enforcement, civil service, intelligence agencies, universities, and the press. Concerns often center on rhetoric against perceived opponents and efforts to increase executive control over government agencies.
• Expansion of executive power: Trump has pushed a stronger “unitary executive” view of presidential authority, potentially shifting the balance between the executive branch and Congress or the courts.

The first two are BS and you know it.

The third can be laid right at the feet of congress....They allowed the executive to usurp their powers (indeed, they gave it to the executive) because they were/are too sorry to put in any work.

That was fine when you had a lazy POTUS like Obama or Biden. Trump is not lazy and will use those powers to get shit done.

You know I watched a three-part documentary on Teddy Roosevelt and he reminds me of Trump in so many ways as far as work ethic goes.....Like TR he makes the chips fly.

 

[rightwinger]

The first two are BS and you know it.

Are you claiming Trump did not declare the 2020 election was stolen without any evidence?
Are you claiming members of the Trump administration refuse to admit that Biden won the 2020 election?
Are you claiming that Trump did not immediately dismantle the Federal Government and demand loyalty to himself?

Quit saying "our democracy."

Your idea of democracy is not the same as mine.

Republicans in Congress ceded Congressional oversight of the Executive Branch
Party over country

I think it was stolen too....81 million votes my ass!

So the .gov is dismantled? Huh, news to me. IMHO a lot more work needs to be done to that end.

What specific evidence do you have to support the election was stolen?
50 states certified the election was valid

China has built empty cities

Across northern China, including in Xiong'an, social media is filled with the same anxious refrain.

State Dept, Dept of Education, Homeland Security, Justice Dept

OK
Explain your idea

My democracy doesn't flush 14 million primary election votes for one candidate down the toilet and then shove some loser in my face, expecting me to vote for her.

That's your democracy.

Your half hearted attempts at Democracy never really got past immediate post WW 2.
Deep State has since run everything .
Watch Gabbard spill most of the beans in the next few months .
