Weird how if Biden uses any of the power he has to stop Trump from becoming Fuhrer then it will cause a civil war, but when Trump actually uses that power to become Fuhrer he will face no obstacles.

It will still cause a civil war. Also, that was a wild edit from “you’ll fucking wish Biden assassinated Trump”

I changed my mind about what I wanted to say, but was I wrong?

EDIT And I changed my mind again. If Trump is so dangerous, the only way to really stop him is for Biden to win decisively. Instead, he's behind in fucking New Jersey in the latest polls. If he wins it'll be razor thin, maybe only by the electoral college or a few counties, and then the fascist Supreme Court will give it to Trump anyway. Lose/lose, at least if Biden does something really funny before he resigns he could make sure Trump can't become fuhrer.

The forces that produced Trump remain and will birth a new "strong man" for the masses to get behind, and the GOP does another attempt for Christian fascism.

They tried that when Trump lost, people gravitated back to Trump

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

And liberals can't actually confront those forces, because some of those forces are the ones who donate to them. Yeah, I get it.
