Cool discussion but let's be real, ya'll gonna do whatever the childless cat ladies tell you to do.

[Spurs Homer]

I'll give you the cold hard truth. Few cared until they started losing the War i.e all those Scientists the USA imported. Not how many "foreigners" they deported or even buried. Nazi Germany hosting the Olympics set an International standard. One could even argue as long as Trump doesn't dwarf into a Warmonger, he can pull it off.

This playbook you speak of is being currently used by almost every nation that has been recently butt ed by mass migration. That's the correlation. Not a nation 100 years ago, that didn't face mass migration and was even coming off the heels of population drop.

the migration did not butt anyone or any country

the migration = an opportunity

a) a country can take the migration and use it to their advantage by creating more wealth and using those new migrants to get more tax dollars and become a superpower…

or

b) greedy evil billionaires can dust off the old playbook and follow it to a T and demonize the newcomers, brainwash/radicalize the racists in the population and use the “migration/illegal aliens” issue for their agenda/$$ coffers…because the playbook works…
Radicalize people with fear/hate in their hearts and tell them these “others” are taking whats theirs, taking their jobs, etc

and you can gain power while never really giving a about the morons who easily become radicalized/brainwashed to their own demise,eventually


like chickens voting for colonel sanders…it always works…

[Spurs Homer]

Meh, it seems to be mostly fallout from inflation. Once the Republicans things up again we'll see what happens.

unfortunately…breaking news…
it is true in a sense…

however

this is now an information war (mis/disinformation war) and the rt wing ecosystem is superior by a million percent over the left wing…

the so-called “mainstream media” is owned and run by billionaires and all the hosts/anchors are all republicans, former republicans or rich democrats and they are not the ones going to suffer when the trump nazis start rounding up people

the information/disinformation won the election because people voted for the team that owns the disinformation and they pump lies/propaganda 24/7

so when the trump team starts ruining this great economy that right now is the best on the planet and the same economy that most voters were programmed to believe was the worst..

well- when things go south- this rt wing machine will start pumping out their false garbage
”best economy ever under trump!” “No one has ever seen anything like this before!”

“America is back!”

even if people start getting kicked off medicare, ss , etc

Now Brooks is coming out. He's old and sodded and already made his fortune so he finally surfaces. That's what happens when you try twice to blow Trump's head off and he lives to make President again.

Iit was a registered Republican who tried and failed to blow Trump's head off.

The weird thing about all this is how y'all seem to think it won't hit y'all too.

Give me a in' break, Wine Ho,,,,your side used Hitler,,,Nazi's,,,,white Supremists,,,,everything you could to bring the gullible to take a shot at Trump but you call the Trump supporters dangerous. Let me ask you this,,,,,how many voters tried to end Harris' life?

Dont forget the fake Russiagate (including Obama tapping Trumps phones) that was concocted by the FBI and CIA and pushed for years

Like you say, stooping to his level will only make things worse.

Democrat party is without doubt too "centrist" if not outright republican lite... Imo for most Americans though that's not really the problem. The problem is that the other side can paint them out to be "Marxist" "commie"etc etc while doing far worse, and democrats are too stupid to properly cal them out for it. The best example of which is the voter fraud/ stop the steal accusations, while literally plotting to use fake electors to steal the presidency..

The best attacks on trump came from his former staff, generals, Arnold Schwarzenegger, for his coup attempt but they barely got any amplitude, I still can't believe the fake electors scheme got so little coverage.. half the reasons people would give for trump were plainly false (peace candidate! Better economy! Fix immigration!) all of these are objectively not true.

At the end of the day, trump only won when going against women, it may be as simple and stupid as that.

We're left to hope that like last time, most of it was just BS to get votes/money from his marks... But there will be real damage to the judiciary and political parties that will eventually lead to civil war imo...

I'm glad I got the out 21 years ago

No, the best attack was when they called him weird, because that diminished his status as authoritarian. Calling him Hitler or future or future dictator, just makes him more attractive to authoritarians. It's not that people didn't see january 6th coup attempt - they saw it and liked it. With authoritarians it's not about policies, or right wing/left wing, it's about who shows power, even if that power hurts them.

There was plenty of research on this topic. E.g.:

Who likes authoritarianism, and how do they want to change their government?

While most people see representative democracy as a good way to govern their country, large shares of the public in many countries are open to nondemocratic alternatives.

Indeed, a median of 31% across 24 nations are supportive of authoritarian systems, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey. The survey asked about two authoritarian models of government: a system in which a strong leader can make decisions without interference from parliament or the courts (“authoritarian leader”) and a system in which the military rules the country (“military rule”).

...

Still, those who support authoritarian systems and those who do not differ on which solutions they think will help fix their democracy.

First, supporters of authoritarianism are much less likely than nonsupporters to offer any solution or idea in about half the countries polled.

Second, in some countries, those who support authoritarian systems are more likely than nonsupporters to mention economic issues.

The one saving grace is that authoritarian regimes are terrible for the economy and so they become increasingly unstable over time, but USA is world's no 1 economy, so there is a long way until that will actually matter.

Don't underestimate Republicans' ability to tank an economy in a short time.

You all shouldn't [underestimate] President Trump, or, at the very least taken shooting lessons.

This is now twice that he left ya's where he found ya's.

The attraction to authoritarians is something to consider for sure, but I don't think calling them weird is productive, it furthers the elitist vs popular thing and it doesn't address the tangible ery trump has engaged in. To rile them up sure it's effective, I just don't see the practical gain, seems like it's just stooping to their level

But yeah I agree going straight to Hitler, turns half of them on and is easily dismissed by the other half as an exaggeration

but it wasnt hyperbole to suggest kamala is a threat to democracy?

Apparently not
