10/10 headline on this one, no notes

If Democrats can’t point at a fascist and say, “Look, I’m running against a literal fascist. You and I may disagree on some things, but we all know fascists are bad” while Trump aligns himself with other autocrats and fascists, then what is even happening in this world? We failed ourselves on election day. Trump has made himself known. A majority of voters picked him, and they collectively either completely ignored reality for the last decade or decided they’re on board with his vision. The party isn’t to blame, when the alternative was so foul. People chose this, whether through ignorance or malice. Make no mistake, both made an appearance

My bet is Trump gets the 25th amendment treatment just after he passes the 2-year mark of his term. That way, the back half of the term won’t start the timer on Vance’s 2-term limit and the fascists can keep Americans sleepwalking for the next 12 years before we collectively wake up and realize we’re in a dictatorship. I hope I’m wrong but I could easily imagine this plan already having been drawn up.

Yes, I fear defenestration of various “problems” will become more and more commonplace here in the US now, sadly

Here’s a horrifying thought: JD’s Silicon Valley puppetmasters wait until Trump has served just over 2 years into his term, then invoke the 25th and install JD. In the meantime, the MAGA types work the system to ensure they can guarantee a Vance victory through whatever means necessary for the next 2 cycles (since his first abbreviated session won’t count as an official term), or a total of 10 years, before most Americans even realize we have sleepwalked into a Vance dictatorship funded by and primarily benefiting oligarchs like Musk and Thiel

“Surely the special interests and their enormous piles of money will offer guidance the people will all benefit from in these trying times,” they’ll say

Too respectful for him, and too disrespectful for the environment. Love the energy though, I’m with you

He’ll be better for the worms than he was for humanity. This asshole put my grandfather’s multi-generation lumber and hardware supply company out of business way back when.

To make sure the tigers don’t start getting any ideas

That’s not how this started, moving the goalposts is pretty cheap. I was literally linking to an issue happening in this vary election that illustrates why secret ballots are so important. A position which, if you recall, you began by stating was invalid because you misunderstand (or, now more clearly, willfully misrepresent) how democracy in the US works, and your proposed “solution” only helps illustrate the easy ways vote buying and manipulation would be introduced without secret ballots. I’ll block you, for obvious reasons. Good luck

There is already a record of who voted for what, all of your fears could be taking place as things are now. Making it accessible to the person, even with hoops to jump through, would only be an improvement.

Edit: additional context for added relevance

He’s out of his fucking element

This kind of shilling has to be considered a massive, unreported campaign contribution. Come on.

Edit: a word, for clarity

ETA: Another look at it, with the white background changed to transparent

Off on another long, strange trip, no doubt. RIP, Phil.

He seems fragile, doesn’t he?

Yes, but with an extra large helping of pain and suffering. That’s the problem.

Those people need to be compassionate, get him out of the public spotlight, and help him retire in a way where he can live out his days in a space where his decreasing lucidity can be properly managed and cared for. He’s a frail, confused old man and the sooner his handlers accept that, the better off we all have a chance to be.

*edit: prison is an acceptable place for this as far as I’m concerned, to be clear

I think I heard him say at one of his appearances that he’s going to work for 30 minutes, and then said it would be longer than Kamala ever worked there. So yeah, he’s never been planning on putting in a full shift.
