The Onion

I say we start a revolution. We get a bunch of pie crusts. And fill them with whipped cream. And then we collectively go around the country just pieing people in the face, and sticking a clown nose on them. Then we lift them above our heads, and run away.

Their whole culture is based on fear, and conformity. You do the normal thing. People who don't do the normal thing aren't with them.

Now imagine walking along the street wearing your trump hat, thinking you're all cool. Suddenly, BAM!!! PIE!!! CLOWN NOSE!!! And now you're 8 feet in the air after having taken a surprise cream pie.

It would go against everything that makes their culture what it is.

OHHH!!! OHHH!!!! SOMEBODY CREAM PIE TRUMP!!! You KNOW you want to see trump rubbing out a cream pie from his eye.

There will certainly be an election. Potentially, the main opposition candidates will be in jail (or in a deportation camp in Alaska), but an election will happen.

What's wrong with a one party system? It's only one less then two! You wouldn't want to confuse the voters would you? /$

Well, no, it's the Beaverton.

There will be, in the same way that they have elections in Russia and Turkey.

Same thing happened in 2016. He got a few things done the first 2 years (the big tax cut was the main thing), then the Democrats got the House back in 2018 and he accomplished very little. Both impeachments happened after 2018.

Take heart, as long as there are people who are willing to stand against tyranny and fascism, there will always be hope. Every one of us, even the strongest of us, sometimes need to take some time off to recover - take all the time you need. Be with your loved ones, hold on to them tightly, and share your love as widely as you can. Spread love among your friends and co-workers as best you can. I know it sounds extremely corny, but love, and fighting for who we love, is how we will win.

We can’t vote our way out of this, but we can build a better future outside of the system and do everything we can to resist the state. That means that we might be left with no choice but to take risks and make sacrifices in the hope that the world we leave behind might start moving in the right direction.

Stay strong and hang in there. I love you, no matter who you are, or where you come from, or what you’ve done.

In his first term, he had a center-right Court that was willing to rule against him. Congress was also not solely controlled by Republicans, and there was a notable never-Trump coalition within their ranks.

Now, the Court is balanced more heavily to the right, and they've already been willing to accept ridiculous proposals that help Trump. And he'll be going into this next term with a Republican-controlled Senate and House. And most of the never-Trumpers have either left or been voted out.

So I do understand that it's possible that our fears are overblown, but there are good reasons to believe that he'll do more lasting damage in his second term.

Things are very different this time around. They have a lot more power and are a lot more prepared. Trump isn't capable, the gang around him definitely is.

And you think you're the only one so wise as to have noticed all that? Trump's people have been working their ass off for this day. They've seen the weaknesses in Trump and the system and they're already deploying their plans. If you think this administration will be Trump 2.0, you got another thing coming.

I imagine Germans were laughing at Hitler after the Beer Hall Putsch.

The world was caught by surprise in 2016. A lot of evildoers didn't even realize what was possible.

They have since realized, planned, and prepared.

You think vd dunce is going to be any better for the USA than discount orange hitler?

Going to put all my chips on President JD Vance to restore democracy

I'd like to see Bernie try to spin up a third party; not for himself to run for office, but just to divorce from the DNC and give leftist politicians a fighting chance using his name/approval.
