When someone says they're going to try to kill you, believe them.

    "Yes! Culture war! That's the priority right now! Look at all those made up enemies we need to fight! Nobody pay attention to the widespread corruption, collapsing standards of living, disastrous foreign policy, open treason with the enemy, stupid wars being declared for no good reason, dismantlement of checks and balances, blatantly illegal actions, complete disregard for the constitution, widespread anti-democratic practices, borderline revolting military, oh yeah and the Epstein files"

    It's what his base responds to. He's going to promise the worst of things that appeal to the worst parts of his supporting base to save the midterms.

    You can connect those dots back a little further, if you try.

    "Okay smart guy, so Nixon?"

    Yes, but...

    "Ah, you're about to mention the southern strategy."

    Which happened because?

    "Alright, but it's pretty tenuous to attribute the modern rise of fascism to failed reconstruction!"

    I wasn't. I was going to attribute it to the existence of slavery in America. The seeds of this destruction were already planted at the beginning.

    (Sorry for this writing style, it started as a joke and I couldn't make it properly funny while also making my point.)

    I'm sure that all those people who sat out the last election will come out and vote in large numbers this time, right?

    RIGHT!?

    The Republicans think so. So, they have people on social media — I've even seen them on Lemmy — trying to convince everyone that the Democrats are no better, so they may as well stay home.

    Also, more Americans sit out midterms anyway, when the presidency isn't up for a vote, but the Republicans are extra worried this year and have been out in force.

    Waste their money.

    Trans people should end Trump and the GOP. Everyone else should help.

    Wow ok

    So like

    I feel like someone needs to bait him into saying the words “final solution”, just so it’s less ambiguous for the 5-10% of voters who are still somehow ambivalent about how all of this is unfolding.

    But at the same time, even if it he did say it, I genuinely don’t have a ton of faith that the fucking dipshits would even acknowledge it

    This is Trump saying that your vote actually does matter. Act accordingly, don't fall for the useful idiots on here telling you otherwise.

    Thank you to all the shitbrains that stood by and did nothing while the regressives boasted about a trans genocide.

    This will be remembered as Trump's prophecy, and historians will discuss why it wasn't taken seriously before a big bad thing happened.

    I'm anti-guns, but i think it is time for trans people to arm up.

    There’s conservative trans people who thought voting for Trump would “secure their access to guns”

    He is pandering to his Christo-fascist base.

    And yeah, he seems to prioritize that because it encompasses WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE... and those people are stupid af and programmed to follow their designated authority, unfortunately.

    That's a big turnaround from the promise that he'd be the best LGBT president ever.

    Interest payments are at a trillion a year on the country's debt. Better worry about how many genders there are.

    That's exactly why this is a favorite political issue now.

    Abortion has also been very reliable for decades.

    These are "small ticket" issues that aren't financially lucrative, and they'd rather have this argument than discussion of our military invasions, the FED, wages, universal healthcare, and other "big ticket" issues.

    Meanwhile, if Trump gets what he deserves, transgender people will finish. :3

    First they came for the trans and I did nothing. Then they came for Bessent…

    Does Bessent, the “genius” investor that took his startup money from Soros, a “dumocrat” not realize that the MAGA cult he claims to love and support think he is an abomination?

    Hopefully he finds out soon, but he’s a piece of shit so I don’t mind if he dies, painfully.
