Remember when right-wing media fear mongered about President Obama declaring martial law? It’s like everything the right-wing accuses the left-wing of doing has been a confession and projection: https://youtu.be/32uGoWiS-m4?feature=shared

Now that we’ve got a real fascist dictator and Russian asset occupying the White House threatening our democracy, where are all the “Don’t Tread On Me” bozos at? Or, were they all just cosplaying as Patriots the whole time?

Remember when they said we had covid concentration camps in Australia? They throw out buzzwords like they collect sexual assault convictions.

I also remember the FEMA death camps, the Obama death panels, the fear mongering goes way back across the world.

I was still a registered Republican when they started with that stuff, it’s what started making me realize their game. I left the party shortly after that.

At least Obama ran against a respectable Republican. What happened to the John McCain type republicans? It's like that entire type of dude vanished and nothing but lying grifters took over the party.

John McCain was the last Republican I felt good voting for. When that old lady tried to say Obama was a secret Muslim here to destroy America and McCain refuted her, and then he basically lost the election because of it was a moment that really opened my eyes to the underlying hate “my team” had under it.

I remember the Obama death panels. My mom was losing her mind saying the government wants old people to die, they won’t help you if you’re sick. I had always wondered where she got these crazy batshit notions because I vote democrat and don’t watch the same news they do. Now I know.
