Former president tells Glenn Beck he would have ‘no choice’ but to lock up opponents ‘because they’re doing it to us’
Again, this is literal, undeniable, and without hyperbole, fascism.
Buttery males!
Okay, to anyone who actually supports what Trump is saying and thinks it’s okay, let’s break things down.
First of all, I understand you think it’s okay to do, because you think it’s already being done by Democrats. But regardless of who started it, by saying it’s okay for Trump to do this you are also saying it’s okay for anyone else to do this. Because, if it’s a good thing to do, then it must be a good thing to do by someone you don’t like. If it’s okay to jail a political opponent, then it must be okay to be jailed for being a political opponent, right?
Let’s shift gears here. It’s okay for Trump to unilaterally jail political opponents without due process because you believe Democrats are already doing it to Trump (despite literally going through due process right now). If Democrats really wielded this type of power with as much evil intent as you think, then they would give up the appearance of pretense right? Exactly how Trump is boasting he would do? Wouldn’t it just be easier to throw Trump in a dark hole and forget about him? Not have to worry about all those pesky laws getting in the way?
Here’s a simple challenge to see if something should or should not be done: If the other side did it, would it be a bad thing? If yes, then it should not be done.
But regardless of who started it, by saying it’s okay for Trump to do this you are also saying it’s okay for anyone else to do this.
Capital punishment in a nutshell. “Killing is bad, so we’re gonna KILL YOU!”
Get out of here with your reasonable logic! Unfortunately the people that really need to heed this advice don’t deal in logic. :(
“They started hitting me first. So I hit back”
You:
First of all, I understand you think it’s okay to do, because you think it’s already being done by aggressors. But regardless of who started it, by saying it’s okay for self-defenders to do this you are also saying it’s okay for anyone else to do this. Because, if it’s a good thing to do, then it must be a good thing to do by someone you don’t like.
Your argument has no merit if this were an actual self-defense situation. Which Trump’s followers believe it is. So you’d need to argue that it isn’t a self-defense situation. Your argument wins no one over who needs to be won over.

TFG: if I get out of this pit, I’m gonna make your life a living hell!!!
Me: (places large concrete slab over pit, continues living best life)
He wants to fuck America just like he wants to fuck his daughter.
Wow. Can TFG actually not see how his current choices likely lead to suicide in a bunker somewhere?
History tells us this road is bad for everyone - but it’s not like it’s somehow happy fields of daisies for the ones instigating things.
It’s kind of mind boggling that someone can become so isolated from anyone in their life who cares about them even enough to say “Hey, maybe don’t. That path doesn’t end well for you, either.”
Or, hear me out, we vote for Biden, you lose, and spend the rest of your shitty life behind bars for your crimes against the American people and the world.
If
If the Democratic party is so out of touch their members don’t show up to vote in overwhelming numbers, a four time indicted criminal wins a second term.
The Democratic Party has won the popular vote 7 out of the last 8 presidential elections. The electoral college has made it so that Republicans got 3 victories out of those 8.
The system is outdated and rigged. The electoral college is just another gerrymander from a long list of gerrymanders in the US.
He vowed that last time.

Do you think… Do you think there’s even a light bulb in there any more? Clearly the lights are not on but I think someone has just run off with the copper in the walls at this point.
it’s not the wiring in his head that I’m worried by.
is there anything resembling neural activity happening in the people who vote for him?
I’m not saying he sounds like Hitler but if das boot fits.
Nah, he’s closer to Mussolini. Cheeto Benito as I like to say.
I doubt he has any interest in reliable rail infrastructure, though.
What’s that aye you questioning me. Well we found your cousin once hosted a rebel when your were 12. To the gulag with you.
Who do you think you are kidding Mister Hitler?
The fall of American democracy has tiny hands’ finger prints all over it.
For a guy who said he wanted law and order and that you cat have a nation without laws, he sure is upset that we’re getting law and order and enforcing the laws.
He says an awful lot of stuff. None of it is worth listening to.
