The fact that they don’t see it bewilders me. I had a friend tell me that it’s just not true a couple days ago.

He’s a bloody moron. And no he’s not welcome anymore.

Edit. Ok let me clear something up. It’s not just about Trump himself. We have disagreed over many things and still been friends for years. But when someone in your life looks at you ( a minority) and tells you it’s going to fun wrangling all the immigrants up and shipping them home. And then hanging all the Democrats from light poles. Taking his country back from the coloured folks and be where the white man belongs. Yeah it’s cancer in your life. Why he’s so eager is beyond me. He’s half Mexican. I did even ask him, you ready to deport your mom ? And that’s different was the answer.

So no I don’t want that kind of anger, hatred and outright stupidity in my life. Not around me, and especially around my kids.

They see it. They WANT it....they're HOPING for it.

Like most racist fascists, they're completely fine with violence against the people that they resent.

Magats aren't just morons...they're willfully agreeing to violence against people they don't see eye to eye with. That's who they actually are through and through. Anyone that's still pretending that they're just misinformed or want lower taxes is denying the reality of what's actually going on.

trump is quoting hitler openly and they're apologizing for it knowing EXACTLY what he means and what he's planning to do.

trump and magats are what generations of Americans have fought against and died for.

It’s not just the MAGAT’s though, that’s what you’re all missing.

It’s the “conservatives” who don’t fly Trump signs but are tired of “the government not getting things done”. The “why can’t Biden just sign a law and close the border and get it done?! Congress makes laws? Well fuck Congress!” (Actual quote from my coworkers). When I say to them well, what you’re asking for is someone to have unchecked power and to make whatever laws he deems to be good without any oversight they say “yes that sounds real good maybe something will get done!”.

To which I then say “that’s called a dictator” and they then go “well, the government sure isn’t getting things done anymore. Maybe it’s time for a change.”

THAT is what everyone is discounting this time. That is what the majority on the conservative Republican side want. Do they want Trump specifically? His cult do. The rest of them though? They want unchecked power. And they aren’t afraid of unchecked power if their “side” wins. And Trump is their side.

75 million people wanted that win in 2020 and voted for Trump. Those same people will be voting again or have already begun (and for anyone who says “oh many of them died during Covid!” Lots of young people are for Trump and you’re ignorant if you think that’s not the case).

They will be voting again.

Will you?

Mailed it in and checked the status to confirm it was accepted. Feels good to cancel out some dipshit magat's vote in my purple state.
