It was awkward and racist, but if you watch the video the crowd cheers as he instantly relates it to money. I’m tellin’ ya, we’re fucked if every Dem and Trump hater dont come out of the woodworks to put this guy in his place. His support is way more entrenched than Lemmy will have you believe. We have to descend upon the polls like the Golden Horde.
I was shocked to hear my next door neighbor last night tell me “be prepared if Kah-mala wins. They think January 6th was bad? That was a drunk frat party compared to what’s coming. She never even got the nomination. I got my guns ready and I know people with more than that. If these democrats steal the election in November, you better be ready. There’s going to be blood in the streets.”
compared to what’s coming […] got my guns ready […] blood in the streets
Never ceases to amaze me how people boast about “what’s coming” like they wouldn’t be the first to turn into cannon fodder were something to actually happen
I’m not saying they’re not going to try, but it will be much harder for them to do anything like they did last time on Jan. 6th. They had police, the DOJ, local officials and all kinds of state help last time while trump was still in office. This time, a lot of them have been put in jail and are certainly on lists. You have to be willing to put your world on the line and can’t claim innocence, so you’d have to be an idiot to try anything. I understand how it feels to be surrounded by the worst of them, but I really don’t think that’s the deal.
January 6th and certifications are a known issue. I’m more worried about domestic terrorism from the anger. Hopefully they’re loud about what they’re planning, the current administrations seems to take that stuff seriously.
Hmm, you might not fit in here then, we like to shoot first and ask questions later.
The good news is that most people don’t care what the president says, so as long as Trump doesn’t start WW3 or a civil war, we should be alright. If not, well, at least we had a good run.
What, you don’t believe he’s mastered The Art of the Deal?
Honestly, the US should stick to either funding or not funding other countries’ defensive wars, we really shouldn’t be sitting at the table unless both sides request it.

Well, she did though. There was a whole convention for it. But of course facts don’t poll well with that demographic.
The convention didn’t have the right color fringe on their flag, so it doesn’t count. Or something, I dunno.
“They didn’t even vote for her, they voted for the other guy in the primaries.”
Me complaining about how fucked up two-party primaries are in the first place
“It’s in the constitution! They claim this is a democra-…”
Me tuning out until his stupid words turned into violent words
You reported him to the FBI, right?
In Texas? For what? Being too Texan?
It’d be more efficient to drive to the nearby FBI campus and insult someone’s mother if I wanted to get harassed by a federal agency.
I wish I were joking and I wish I weren’t so scared.

I can’t do anything but watch across the pond and wonder how the US can survive whatever the fuck happens there.
It would be entertaining if it was a TV show.
Be happy you have the ocean in between. Canadian here. It’s bleeding north as well. Expect an even more fucked up shit show.
Fortunately, it’s a TV show for you.
Sadly, I mastered the ability to feel empathy.

True, but I don’t want him to sell my neighboring states to Daddy Putin

That’s a short sighted view of the world. We are very much affected when morons across the pond vote a madman into power.
Me when I head to the polls next month.
