this kind of rhetoric will never work against somebody who was already president. Her campaign has made a mistake, which honestly shouldn't be big enough to crash the election but its the US and the electoral college who the fuck knows how 5000 psychopaths in swing states are going to vote after being bombarded with record breaking levels of insane propaganda..

It should be clear that the easy way to campaign on trump is to hit him hard in the economy: He had to bailout farmers because of his first round of tariffs. US steel still hasn't recovered. Trump tariffs will not only raise prices but the resulting bailouts will drastically increase inflation and eventually he will run out of scapegoats to blame his failures on so however loyal to trump you seem to be, eventually he will blame you and send the military on you for criticizing him

Yes. Yes they will.

Yes of course they will. Trumps cultists know exactly what he is and they vote for him because of that.

It's sad how true that is. I was talking with a conservative about the "enemy within" shit and with a straight face he said that's how half the country feels. Ok dog, see you on the other side of the civil war I guess.

He sleeps with My New Order by Hitler next to his bed. Wants to be a dictator on day 1. Sees good people at a Nazi march. Wants generals like Hitler’s. By George he just may be a Nazi. - Edited

He sleeps with Mein Kampf next to his bed.

Not Mein Kampf, but rather My New Order, which is a collection of Hitler's speeches. Trump is a fan of Hitler's propaganda and rhetoric specifically.

Never did I suspect this Stephen Lynch song to not feel completely outlandish.

Didn't Hitler's generals try to assassinate Hitler?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 hours ago

Even Hitler tried to assassinate Hitler

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

Yes, but you have to remember Trump's a "Very Stable Genius"

the neonazis and white supremicists and basically all the butthurt bumpkins will

I don't like to judge people black on white.

Hitler did kill Hitler, so there's something good to say about him

[–] [email protected] 9 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

Didn't they already do that at least once?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

The direct Hitler praise hadn't come out before 2016. There were certainly many other serious red flags though.
