It is if no one stops him. The Constitution doesn't do anything unless people actively uphold it. So far Trump's gotten away with so many things because no one's actually stopping him.

I keep waiting for the American public to take a stand, but apparently they're willing to sit there on the couch while their democracy is stripped away.

They're not Putin in the effort.

So now we're just going to reconfigure our entire society to indulge the fantasies of conspiracy theory weirdos?

Until Americans get off their couch and do something, yes.

At least he's stopped happily voting for it.

They'll claim it as a victory that Trump's winning because they're all mad they can't take advantage of the US anymore.

"They arrested someone"

Kidnapped. The word is kidnapped.

It's already more secure than their Signal chat. I'm sure it'll be fine.

He needs to be understood by his supporters.

Why would anyone hire a lawyer that rolls over the first time a fascist shows up with demands?

I want a lawyer who will fight for me fully.

Fortunately you'll move much further up the list alphabetically since you're rapidly becoming the Fascist States of America.

Pretty sure it's a reference to goatse

We don't have any nukes.

Yep, fascism has to have an in-group and an out-group. As they work through the groups of immigrants, trans people, Democrats, etc they need to find new ones to persecute. They'll work through their own undesirables and then they're coming for us.

It's just like Nazi Germany in the 30s. It didn't take long for Hitler to turn his eyes on Poland.

He will come for us. His talks of the 51st state are not a joke or a bluff. People are not taking it seriously enough.

I wondered when he'd back down, and what excuse he'd give to his followers.

That's exactly what he's been doing with all his businesses. And it works. Tesla is still hugely overvalued as a company.

It's only gonna be another decade or so, right after 3 more special editions of Skyrim.

Jesus: Everybody love each other. That’s it that’s the whole thing.

American Christians: Okay, okay. That's cool... uh, but not f*gs right?

Jesus: Did I fucking stutter?

“We understand the problem, but we see no solution."

STOP HELPING HIM IS A GOOD START.

because of “DEI going too far” and because “woke culture was dividing the country,”

No, woke culture unites the country. That's the fucking point. "Woke" means you accept that everyone is different and you agree to tolerate and respect those differences. Your insistence on hating people you view as different is what divides us.
