    i think if he wanted a coup he could have had one. what he actually wanted was some showmanship and what he got instead was an unruly crowd.

      Funny how some vocal self-proclaimed leftists online (who are, of course, too PURE to ever participate in antifascist coalitions) and literal fascists both try to downplay Trump’s fascism.

          “No fascist, no fascist; you’re the fascist!”

          You even act like Trump. Unsurprising, considering I hear many of the same buzzwords too. Would you like to throw in a few 'lib’s and 'deep state’s to round it all out?

            you can ignore the fasces on the wall of the house chamber, but i can’t. trying to pigeonhole me with your favorite boogeyman is lazy and transparent.

              I mean, you can ignore that the fasces pre-dates fascism and was originally a symbol of the authority of republics, as opposed to the authority of monarchs and aristocracies, but go off, I guess.

                  You’re not even trying, are you? Either that or you buy into cheap troll farm dreck with absolute credulity. The House has used fasces since 1789, and it’s been a popular symbol in the nation’s iconography since the start.
