Fuck, they are going ahead and normalizing this. The coup continues to consolidate its grip.
This is death by strangulation
If you’ve wondered why everything looks like a coup since he got in, perhaps it is because it is one.

Edit: the upvote/downvote ratio on a comment like this shows how rapidly Lemmy is turning into Reddit. Nobody cares about the data, if you remotely sound like defending the GOP down the chute you go.
It’s your loss America. I’ll sleep fine as long as we don’t have electronic voting systems here.
You don’t have to read all those documents. You can just go read project 2025 mandate. Its only 900+ pages 
That YouTube clip, hell he all but admits that he rigged the election.
It’s so much more sinister than this. To understand he is not senile and going to bed and waking up every day knowing this and having this on his consciousness.
I don't think he has a conscious
I feel sick watching it. As others have said, because of J6 and past accusations of fraud from the other side, it will be hard to discuss this with a lot of people without sounding insane.
It's interesting that you post a message like that when yours is the majority position on Lemmy and comes up regularly. Any time I post conflicting data on the election, I'm down voted at about a 40/60 ratio up/down. Meanwhile politically I'm somewhere between Lenin and Bernie.
No I accidentally included that edit from my previous comment in another post which experienced that.
The voting behaviour is very strange. To my autistic head black on white data indicating the “leader of the free world” may have have taken control over the largest nuclear arsenal of the world seems pretty unequivocally the most important message of our times, but people on social media just go
_But the way you’re saying it is not nice, so until you learn to be kind, I think the best path forward for humanity is to downvote so less people see that random information you’re posting. (Which I didn’t bother to read frankly, because did I mention your tone was off) _
I’m beginning to understand why the human race is really a race to the bottom.
Are you whining? Down vote.
Yeah, geez, it’s wild what happens when everyone just decides to allow it
Yeah, that guy kitted out in body armour carrying a massive cockrifle is just a secretary, bro. Helping with the paperwork, brah.
So they want to kill all the cheap labor based businesses in core red States? Congratulations. Smart decision. This will definitely boost the next election results.
Aww that’s cute that you think there’s going to be a next election. And if there is, I guarantee they’ve already gerrymandered and election machine tampered it into the result they want.
They. Do. Not. Care. About. A. Next. Election.
They don't plan on having a "next" election. And those businesses will have their workers clearly supplied to them on contract from the federal labor camps they're already working to build.
That is a big possibility, yes. They did the same here 80 years ago, and you know where that ended.
Where those 2nd amendment rights Americans so viciously protect?
Oh right it was just for show. A country full of cowards. All those history books and films, starting to think it was exaggerated. Ain't no way Americans are brave.
Don’t be surprised. But those 2A people…all racists. They are the fucking nazis that support the actions of the temu tyranny we are living under. They are okay with the talking Cheeto puff taking control of the NG and deploying troops, including active duty, cause it hurts brown people. They will just lay in their beds, having sexual fantasies of musk and trump while whispering no homo, and ignore all of this. Even when they have no rights left and Trump has fully take over the government. They are okay with all of this.
I'm really wondering what the real reason is behind the anti-immigrant actions. Sure, racism is part of it, but there has to be a money aspect for somebody because of all the extra business.
This is generating a ton of jobs in louisiana, which is basically the last slave state as-is with how their prisons are run anyway.
Labor discipline. By terrifying migrant workers it allows employers to treat them even worse and pay them even less.
I have assumed they want downward pressure on labor costs but by removing labor you just raise the cost of it. Supply vs demand... cut off the supply and the demand peaks.
Raise the labor cost on manufacturing, food, landscaping, etc and you just raise prices for everybody, more runaway inflation happens and the US competes even less with the rest of the world.
Just doesn't add up to me. Maybe for billionaires the math works out in their favor though.
But not all labor is getting removed, and they won't really try to do so. Deportations are basically at the same level as they were under Biden iirc, the difference is that we now have spectacle in our media.
It's fundamentally just terrorism.
The private prison executives had a leaked meeting where they celebrate Trump's victory.
Fun fact, the USA still practices slavery by making prisoners exempt from the 13th Amendment which in all other cases abolished slavery. A lot of industry is constructed by convicts for cheap cheap.
and we will spit in the food of every one of them if we get the chance to.
Thank goodness—soon all us purportedly white people will be totally safe from the scourge of all the darker-skinned people cleaning our homes, our yards & hotel rooms…/s
