An ex-MAGA activist warns “no civic savior is coming” as Donald Trump’s cognitive decline becomes undeniable
What if Donald Trump defeats President Biden and takes control of the White House in 2025? He has already announced his plans to become the country’s first dictator, and to launch a reign of terror and revenge against his so-called enemies. As detailed in documents such as Project 2025, Agenda 47, and elsewhere, the infrastructure is being created right now to put Trump’s neofascist plans to end multiracial pluralistic democracy in effect on “day one." The so-called resistance will not have the courtesy of ramping up or mobilizing to stop Dictator Trump’s onslaught. It will be a “shock and awe” campaign visited upon the American people.
Dictator Trump’s reign of terror will be made even worse by the fact that as shown during recent speeches, interviews, and at other events he appears to be encountering severe difficulties in cognition, language, and memory.
In a series of recent conversations with me here at Salon, Dr. John Gartner, a prominent psychologist and contributor to the bestselling book “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President,” has issued this warning: “Not enough people are sounding the alarm, that based on his behavior, and in my opinion, Donald Trump is dangerously demented. In fact, we are seeing the opposite among too many in the news media, the political leaders and among the public. There is also this focus on Biden’s gaffes or other things that are well within the normal limits of aging. By comparison, Trump appears to be showing gross signs of dementia. This is a tale of two brains. Biden’s brain is aging. Trump’s brain is dementing.”
I have to ask, why? Why would you support someone so transparently anti-democracy, possibly one of the most dangerous enemies of the United States in a long time, the leader of our very own home grown Beer Hall Putsch? Why would you give him a second chance to overthrow the democratic government of our country?
Because they align with every thing you just said he’s going to do?
They won’t respond, they have thrown their hand grenade and they’re off to the next comment section.

Why did you link me to a comment by a six hour old account with five comments?
I have no intention of drive-by comments. I’m here.
What got your last account banned?
On Lemmy? This is my first and only account.
On /r/politics I’d expect to get banned for such a comment, hence my first question.
No one has ever gotten banned on r/politics for saying they like Trump, that’s just a myth conversatives like to tell each other.
It’s like how they like freedom and small governments.
On Lemmy you can check the public modlogs and see the other people banning people for wrongthought is the conservative community and .ml.
Just proving you’re full of crap
The mainstream media “fake news” has created a caricature out of Trump. They have taken what he has said out of context, taken soundbites, and not accurately reported what he’s said and done. Therefore, it is no surprise to me that you, and many, feel the way you do. I’d be on your side if I believed the caricature version.
Look, I’ve talked to enough people to realize that we have more in common than not. And what’s dividing us are the filters. I listen to Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, and Joe Rogan. Others (speaking in generalities, not specifically you) may read and listen to MSNBC, Salon, The Atlantic, The Rolling Stones, etc. Fair to say these two categories are not even reporting the same basic information, let alone opinion on the matter.
May I suggest listening and going to these sources that don’t agree with you (or you even find very offensive), and see what they have to say. That’s why I’m here. I want to connect with people, and see what people I don’t necessarily agree with are saying. I don’t care what you believe or where you came from.
I realize I didn’t exactly answer the question you asked, but if you really are interested in what I think (and I’m no one special) reply and I’d be happy to talk to you.
I don’t need any talking heads, “fake news” or otherwise, to tell me what my own eyes and ears saw and heard in the months between election night and January 6th (and in the years since, my conviction has only been strengthened honestly)
Donald Trump is easily the largest threat to American democracy in the 150 years since the civil war, because he’s tricking millions and millions of people into not believing in the democratic process itself, and is responsible for the first time in our country’s entire history that the peaceful transfer of power (ie, a candidate gracefully losing, which is a core component of a stable democracy) was threatened
I don’t give a shit about his policies, his clips, his soundbites, whatever other things you think are being used to unfairly paint him in a bad light, this fact alone makes him wholly unfit to be the leader of the free world
Oh, you believe in alternative facts, that explains it.
