Top names on that list are Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the Democratic political consultants who destroyed her campaign.

The Nazis didn't start by rounding up the Jews, they started with the "sexual deviants". The parallel is a lot closer than you think.

Wait until you see how much money this saves you at the grocery store. This is going to be one hell of a "find out" moment for a whole lot of bigots.

You also missed the point. Why even pay the high cost of a military flight when they could just send them on commercial flights? It's because they love the visuals of human beings in chains being loaded into military transports. They kicked the porn out of red states, so they gotta get their fetish material somewhere.

As if Congress wouldn't already be having hearings if Biden was still president. If it happens on Trump's watch, then it's Trump's fault until proven otherwise. Some people don't get the benefit of the doubt.

I think it's safe to say that nobody will confuse Elon with a Nazi.

JD Vance is waiting on the wings.

Anyways, it's not Trump making these decisions. He's just signing whatever the Heritage Foundation puts in front of him. Trump isn't even capable of actually writing an executive order.

Like handing a presidential election over to George W Bush?

We can put that on the Democrat's tombstone, for all the good it will do.

Most voters are woefully ignorant. That's nothing new. It has always been that way. The job of the politician is to reach voters. One party does this effectively and one doesn't. The Republican message ends up being the only message ignorant voters are aware of, and they live in a different reality from political junkies.

This doesn't excuse the voters but, if "voters suck" is all we get from it, then what do we do with that information? How does that help us win next time?Blaming voters is a loser strategy.

So edgy.

Sounds truthy, but no. Becoming a Nazi creates one Nazi. Becoming a neoliberal can create thousands of Nazis.

Trump doesn't punch up,

Have you forgotten the Obama birth certificate fiasco?

That's an unfair question. It's just too easy to nitpick reasons why this candidate or that could never win. Just look at the list of very convincing reasons why Trump could never win. Most Democrats even believed most of them before Hillary flopped.

Nikki Haley would probably be their best choice, though I could see Marco Rubio or Lindsey Graham. Hell, Matt Gates could probably win. He's no more horrific than Trump.

Against Biden or Harris? I think you're overestimating how hard they were to beat. Another Republican might not win the popular vote but, unlike Democrats, Republicans don't need a mandate to get things done.

The thing about Hillary's loss against Trump was that it should have shocked the Democratic party into reform. The way they manipulated to get Biden and "anyone but Bernie" proved that they learned nothing.

If Trump were in prison it would be someone else. Trump didn't start this fascist movement, he surfed it. Trump is a uniquely detestable person, but he's not the worst President the Republican party could come up with.

That's one.

The biggest failure was the Democrats who nominated Biden in 2020. That primary was the last offramp that could have avoided a fascist takeover, either in 2024 or 2028, with Trump or a Trump clone.

The return of Trump might just have bought us another shot in 2028, but it's not looking like the Democrats have learned much. Trump has a lot of similarities to Hoover and, as bad a President as he was, he was great for Democrats and progressivism. If the Democrats can get their heads out of their asses, the Trump Presidency might open a path to save the country - assuming we survive it.

Apparently not.

That's some serious cope from both sides, but you go ahead and hold on to that thread.

We could get a lot more benefit if we spent that money on building infrastructure instead of blowing shit up, but I still agree. Doing the right thing and US interests aligning doesn't seem to happen very often. I think we have to act when they do.
