    He’ll find any way to defund education. Why? Because a dictator always “loves the poorly educated.” Why? Because they’re easier to control.

    Get with the program, folks. Everything is about control.

        They already have the power. Control/subjugation is harder. It takes manipulation and requires subjects to comply and not rise up.

        The conservatives have already acquiesced to their “dear leader.” It’s the pesky liberals and progressives who have enough intelligence to know that what is happening is wrong. Get rid of that element and you have ultimate control.

      Also doesn’t that open up to vouchers for Christian schools, which of course is a big bonus. I’m not from the States so fuzzy on how that side works exactly.

      Edit,I do mean a bonus for the fanatical right that wants a Christian state, not a bonus for freedom.

        He already lost once while he was the president and we survived. He has much less power now. We’re only fucked if he’s handed it again.

            “We” as in the US in general. If anything, covid deaths helped him lose.

                  What’s really crazy is, no matter how bad he gets, his MAGoos will defend him.

                  Remember the G-8 Conference where the other leaders went for a stroll and Trump needed a mobility cart to keep up?

                  Someone online told me that was a power move that showed dominance, and not the whining of a toddler who needs a nap.

      This is where I divide Republicans into two groups:

      • Evil people who believe that Republican lies will serve them in some way.
      • Stupid people who will believe the most outrageous lies.

      They will never accept that he lies to them. They just blindly accept anything he says.

      100% - his administration is why Moderna’s Covid vaccine exists. His govt. funded the plants.

        Oh, you mean Operation Warp Speed, which Trump announced on May 15, 2020 after 100k deaths in the US?

        Did you know it was funded by the CARES act, which was introduced into the House by Democrat Joe Courtney on January 24, 2019? Yup, Democrats were introducing Coronavirus legislation over a year before Trump “Warp Speeded”.

        But Trump completely bungle testing, couldnt make sure medical personnel had access to protective gear, he continually lied about how serious the pandemic was and spewed misinformation about quack cures like hydroxychloroquine. At a time when America needed unity, Republicans divided it with anti-mask rhetoric, which they continue even today.

        But yes, at least Trump signed the CARES Act bill. “Ta da”

          Listen, I’m far from a Trump fan. And I don’t think he personally did anything productive ever personally. But facts are facts - his administration DID do a lot to help (or at least that was my personal experience). As one single example of many, I personally got help from warp speed White House / military folks to get me critical parts from the other side of the world in a little over a day. Asia to my doorstep, Friday end of day to Sunday morning. I thought I’d have to go to the port and pick it up - nope right to my damn hands. That one simple act literally got that vaccine into people about 2-3 weeks earlier.

          It’s baffling - they did good things. Not all the good things, but good things nonetheless. And he was in a position to take credit for the whole thing, deserved or not and put a big feather in his cap. And then, all of a sudden, “vaccines are bad”. It’s like you can’t make this shit up. If he was smart he’d take that one thing and rile up his base with how amazing he is, and then get away with murder behind their backs. But instead he punches the gift horse in the mouth.

          That’s how I know he’s not very smart.
