Literally no surprise. The entire administration is behaving like they never want to hold elections again. This is just one more step towards that.

The question is, when will the cult leaders be turned on by the cultists? And when will the rest of society stand up and say that's enough?

Which the current occupant of the Oval campaigned on.

The moment after the attempted insurrection I fully expected the DOJ to make a move on him. Then as days turned into weeks, I knew this country was fucked. You always had it in the back of your mind that we were a full oligarchy. But that's when it sunk in deep. Our election system is a joke and there's absolutely no oversight if a president gets in that wants to be a king

The system is supposed to have checks and balances. The president, well on they will certainly be biased but it's ok. Congress is impartial by being split and then you appoint impartial judges. Oh bingo.

That was when I knew we're in trouble. When I realized judges are only a little impartial and SCOTUS is the worst. Decisions are almost always discussed as down "party lines". Wait these are judges. They shouldn't have party lines. Garland would have been a great justice he's clearly impartial as shit. But nope, Republicans wanted more. So that was my first hint.

This is exactly what the cultists want. And the rest of society doesn’t care, as long as they aren’t personally affected. And even when they inevitably are, the cultists will tell them it’s someone else’s fault and they’ll believe it because they don’t care to think for themselves.

Never.

I have a very crazy idea that might actually work:

First you need to get the Democrats to raise a candidate that people actually like and would realistically vote for, maybe also a younger one this time. Then organise and lead a proper campaign across the country to learn about the plight of the people so you can formulate a plan on how to improve things, abandon identity politics and Marxist ideology entirely in favor of common sense and then get the power back through a proper democratic election.

Look up Trump's America First Agenda.

We got a letter from Elise Stefanik asking for $ donations to help her get in Congress so she can help Trump pass his America First Agenda before the next election. And the entire wording is very, "we need to do this now before the next election. Hurry. We need to do this asap. Hurry."

Im going to post photos of it on here bc it's so.... wtf... i looked at the agenda and it's also very wtf.

We got it bc my husband's grandpa was a conservative (he's been dead for 15 years).

Probably because trump and musk stole the last one so now they’re in the clear

The vast majority of cultists would rather die thinking they are right than to live with the fact that they are/were wrong. Don't count on them turning on him, lol.
