People aren’t listening unless they try to remain politically aware. They don’t even know Trump is saying all these far-right ultra-fascist things. They aren’t paying attention and they won’t until the election is much closer and it will be too late.
Early elections this past week seem promising. I don’t think Trump is particularly gaining votes. He’s saturated the electorate and swept up all the gullible buffoons, bigoted, and easily-grifted.
I think generally most people are sick of him. The key is whether the progressive-left remains energized which influences and inspires the rest of the base to turn out. As long as abortion remains a hot-topic, we should be fine.
Can’t forget how 91 criminal charges across 4 grand jury indictments will look as those trials begin and wrap up.
I didn’t think Trump would be elected in 2016. Look what happened.
progressive left
Lol who is that
Is the progressive left in the room with us now?
What
Some might wake up after his inauguration. Some not even then. Even if people are getting pushed onto boxcars.
There’s too many people in this country who will cheer for the boxcars until the instant they’re forced onto one.
CNN gave him so much coverage in his first run. Where’s the media for this?
Do we need to call and write them to get them to pay attention?
The DNC was behind that strategy, and it shot them in the foot. They may be attempting a different strategy this time?
Are you implying CNN is controlled by the DNC?
No, I’m referring to an article I saw a few days ago that straight up said that the DNC asked the media to focus on Trump in the 2016 election, because they thought it would be impossible for him to win. Perhaps they’ve asked the media in general to tone down coverage so that they have a better shot
Can we get a link to this article?
It’s pretty simple actually.
- Murder mayhem over there…
OR
2). Do it here.
At least 1) didn’t lie about doing what they did.
Your choice and fuck you. They don’t care about you being homeless. Get a job, slave.
Donald Trump would prosecute anyone he deems an enemy, unleash troops on protestors, & essentially unravel the rule of law as we know it…But sure, Joe Biden is three years older
But gaza
Trump would very much be worse for Gazans than literally any Democrat.
Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem lol. He would fucking bomb Gaza just to wave his tiny little dick around
He’d also immediately cease US support to Ukraine, and attempt to cede all Ukrainian territory to Putin. I wonder if he would ever stand up to Putin or Xi.
Trump would very much be worse for Gazans than literally any Democrat.
I’m hard pressed to see how. Obama was at least milquetoast on Israel carpet-bombing Lebanon, but Joe Biden clearly does not give a fuck and has done nothing except to enable the Netanyahu regime since he took office. There’s very little more that Trump could do that would be worse than what Biden’s already endorsed now that we’re in fully on ethnic cleansing mode.
Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem lol.
We’ve been cutting checks on the order of $4B/year to the Israel government to arm up against its neighbors since the Bush Jr administration. Trump moving the embassy did nothing substantive. What really changed was the Israeli internal policy of arming settlers in the Golan Heights, which inflamed tensions in the West Bank, while tightening restrictions on import/export trade in Gaza to the point of actively starving out the population.
This, while Netanyahu undermined the Palestinian Authority in order to push more local support to Hamas
In August 2019, former prime minister Ehud Barak told Israeli Army Radio that Netanyahu’s “strategy is to keep Hamas alive and kicking … even at the price of abandoning the citizens [of the south] … in order to weaken the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah.”
The logic underlying this strategy, Barak said, is that “it’s easier with Hamas to explain to Israelis that there is no one to sit with and no one to talk to.”
Neither Obama nor Trump nor Biden has made any material effort to discourage these policies. Unlike Reagan in 1982 (fucking Reagan of all people!), who threatened to withdraw support from Israel unless it backed out of Lebanon, no President of either party since appears interested in reining Israel in.
You think the man that literally included collective punishment as part of his initial campaign platform wouldn’t be worse for Palestinians than Biden, regardless of the tepidness of the current response that at a bate minimum at least gives lip service to concepts of proportionality and the avoidance of civilian casualties?
Guarantee his first action will be something like barring Palestinians from immigration via executive order.
Afterwards, he might put existing Palestinian immigrants into camps if they protest his actions.
yeah he probably could
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In an interview that aired Thursday night on Univision, former president Donald Trump indicated that if he’s elected in 2024, he may use the federal government to punish his critics and he defended his administration’s separation of migrant families at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Trump faces 91 combined federal and state charges over alleged election interference, the mishandling of classified documents and falsifying business records.
To facilitate Trump’s ability to direct Justice Department actions, his associates have drafted plans to dispense with 50 years of policy and practice intended to shield criminal prosecutions from political considerations.
Dozens of lawsuits have been filed against the federal government seeking damages for allegedly intentionally inflicting emotional distress on migrant families as a result of the separation policy.
And Trump’s appearance on Univision — a leading Hispanic media company in the United States with which he has a thorny history — comes a day after the former president counterprogrammed a Republican presidential debate in Miami with a rally in Hialeah.
Acevedo’s sit-down marks the first time Trump has participated in such an interview with Univision, which completed a merger with Mexican broadcaster Televisa last year, since he removed anchor Jorge Ramos from a news conference on the campaign trail in 2015.
