politics

One of the saddest parts for his followers is they think they are getting that strong man that's going to clean up all that is wrong in their books and make it like some rose colored memory of how good things use to be before the world become too complicated for them to handle.

Trump isn't coming in to do that kind of hard work, he's doing it for the title, prestige, and the fact he "deserves" to be president, he should be president because he's special.

Not to say it's all about his ego which it is, but it's also pretty handy in his mind to help deal with his mounting legal issues while slow to play out but they are piling up like Everest.

It's unfortunate most won't recognize the need for a leader to do the hard work of a true servant leader. It's been a long time since we've seen one of those. Many will argue we've seen that in Carter and even perhaps despite his advancing years a little in Biden but most people have been turned against such presidents with soft skills willing to do the hardwork.

They seem to want those with a finger on the button ready to blow up anyone that dares challenge the US. That's another area Trump supporters will be let down in when it comes to Russia...

Let's get on with it! I'm still waiting for the AR-15 waving morons on mobility scooters getting mowed down.

Just what we need... another civil war... bleh.

The problem is that we're approaching politics like sports. We root for our team, and boo the other side relentlessly. Government, though, is not a zero-sum game. We don't automatically win when the other side loses, and sometimes we all lose.

The confusion with the Cannon case in this thread is apt, actually. Because we all do the same stuff. We just think we have facts in our side. I've openly wondered whether Cannon has a new RV in her driveway, after reading some of her rulings. All the shit that the MAGAs are saying about the other judges, we are saying about Cannon. We can't both be right.

This is the real civil war here. It won't be Sherman carving a path to the sea. But it will be two sides with such different ideas about what is true that "patriots" will take it upon themselves to conduct asymmetrical warfare. i think it will look more like Belfast in the 1970's than Atlanta in the 1860's.

There will be no "civil war" until republicans win again.

Cops are gonna cop either way (so do nothing other than find the nearest brown kid they can beat on until The Public gets mad enough that they have to act). Even a bunch of untrained gravy seals with ar-15s are going to leave the cops shitting themselves and crying while they play gacha games on their phones. It is the military (mostly National Guard) who are going to matter.

And Jan 6 already showed how that plays out. They are going to do whatever they are ordered to. So if the POTUS is actively trying to murder the VPOTUS and the president pro tem and so forth? Doesn't matter because the person they report to is telling them to not act or, after seeing Jan 6 "fail", to impose martial law to protect the country. Just.. not over there. We got some uppity negros what need putting down first.

If anyone who actually cares about the country is in power (so... Democrats and a very small subset of third parties)? We roll up on the gravy seals with a few drones that drop tear gas and we are done. If it is the republicans? It won't be a "civil war" so much as a series of lynchings.

Shouldn't come as a surprise really. They have even set a date for April the 12th

Bring it on, fatties!

Well, it wouldn't be too difficult to defeat a gullible and unstable army

They are so fucking delusional.

Cannon is one of the FLORIDA judges. Not GEORGIA.

Sounds a lot like a threat to me.

One random guy on Twitter "there will be a civil war!"

Raw Story: "THE REPUBLICANS ARE THREATENING CIVIL WAR!"

I guess "random Twitter account spouts bullshit" isn't as compelling a headline.

“tHerE wiLL bE a ciViL wAr…”

Sure Jan

Cool bros, you'll lose.
