Too many of the American People are not thinking, & don't know they are incapable. It is "funny" until you realize that it is these, "Trumps Uneducated' that are his base and his stalwart 35%.
We need to collect these examples.
This clip is an entry.

It is not as funny 7 it is a different angle on the same syndrome. This is horrifying.

One of the great advances in the ability of a society to function is that the state takes on the responsibility of violence & does not allow for private armies etc.

These are Trumps peeps.
As noted elsewhere, this is the time of the #BrownShirts.
What is their purpose? What is their authority? And what would happen if they actually felt the need to shoot someone? What happens next?
Trump distances himself publically, while using them?

This is horrible. We are not that country, and the problems that we have, and they are many, are not addressed in any way by violating our core principles.

We are on the verge of subverting our incredible axiomatic principles on the whims of a small, limited man.

How absurd.
This is very hard. To watch the guts of this country, so well founded on principles that created whatever greatness & leadership America has enjoyed, however imperfect; to watch this be ripped apart by the carrion of this fascist movement is unbearable.
One of the central tenants of our Constitutional foundation is to recognize the system is not perfect. Thus it has the precepts of adjustment built into the system.
The core principles of
Rule of Law
No one above the law
The arrangement/distribution of power
are not debatable.

Trump is inextricable because he is motivated by power lusts most people do not share. Sméagol longing for his precious is the point.
For this he will do all, harm all, say anything wo the slightest concern for anything but himself.
Well articulated here.

Most people do not have "the president’s ... psychological need to dominate".

He does not demonstrate any comprehension of anothers experience. It is not an accusation but a hypothesis that seems borne out by the data, that he does not understand others suffering at his hand. Image
Tr is easily accused of being stupid & ignorant. Well deserved accolades. But that does not account for the remarkable resileance to somehow tap into the dark consciousness of America's xenophobia while colaborating with powerful forces that have long wanted to dismantle the

The feint is so transparent, and so often used, it seems it should not still be effective as a strategy.

The old question "When will they ever learn?".
The answer seems to be "never".

Esp when you look at the insane demolition of the country by this crew.

None of this was🧵
None of this was "voted" for, even by the MAGA's who thought they were getting something altogether different.
All of it was easily known. But there was a thick pall of short sighted grievance infecting the citizenry. Largely inculcated by Trump&Co in the first place.

Easily
Easily known, but obstinately rejected.
Cassandra tells her tale, & is mocked. Her warnings are not only mocked but used as the reason to ignore them.

"It cant possibly happen here"...

Which will soon be replaced by
"How did that happen?
Who could have possibly known?

This is a DISTURBING event/moment in our history.
It is stupifying that citizens voted for this morally vacant man. Now we, along with those unfortunates, are finding out what has been unleashed on the country.
This article is a sharp telling of the issue.

Here the weaponizing of the DOJ.
Filled with sycophantic incompetents, whose claim on the offices they have got appointed to is not expertise, but loyalty to the boss. Image
Image
Trump says "... make sure this never happens again in the country"...
And then immediately contradicts himself, revealing his vicious intents to destroy the Justice system in his blank rage of revenge. Image

This is what raw power that believes itself to be unconstrained looks like.
The historical examples are harsh.
He has no power of his own. He is co-opting the power America has developed & contorting it into his small, destructive, self-serving, cruel intentions.
Like most of Trump's dictatorial, and mind boggling stupid, ideas, this one will never happen.

But it will create more chaos and unnecessary suffering, while doing nothing to address the problems/issues.

And it reveals more than it could possibly solve, about who Tr is at core
Tr truly believes he is the 'smartest' in the room.
He is a pathetic little man, but one who is himself unconstrained by principles or shame or oaths to office or country.
This enables him to do things that normally constituted humans are capable and/or unwilling to do.

As if we need more proof & discourse re the absolute incompetence of Trump... But we do. We are desperate for it. The violent, vindictive, angry man is a threat.
So here: a serious, in-depth report re details generally only superficially known/understood.

theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…
Amazing.
But is it really?

The really amazing thing is how many citizens have been infected with this blood lust level of seething violence, ready to break out on command.
It has been seen once. The fires seem to be stoked & hotter.

Just the appeal to violence should be evidence enough of the unadulterated disqualification of this tribe of would-be Huns, from ever being given power.

Trump, & all that wave his flag, are unworthy of the position they seek to occupy. Along with his and their hopes to destroy
