Donald Trump has described at length the dangerous and disturbing actions he says he will take if he wins the presidency.
His rallies offer a steady stream of such promises and threats — things like prosecuting political opponents and using the military against U.S. citizens. These statements are so outrageous and outlandish, so openly in conflict with the norms and values of American democracy that many find them hard to regard as anything but empty bluster.
We have two words for American voters: Believe him.
And to clarify to you specifically and the three-ish people that upvoted me, on a weekly basis he helps a 40 year old dude with multiple sclerosis do history homework, and they were covering the second world war. He read the Wikipedia of fascism, and he literally said that he had no idea it was a right wing ideology.
What can I glean from that? I have no fucking clue. Fuck Nazis, fuck republicans. I can only hope that there is a large group of people voting conservative who dont understand the consequence of this next election. Because if you’re right than like 40% of the country are bigots, and even if the Democrats win, we’re *still fast tracking to collapse
You can always take solace that you weren’t down voted.
When you’re talking about a set as large as 40 to 50% of the US there will always be exceptions. This exceptions will be numerous yet statistically and significant.
When someone says absolutely every one of the US is X, it’s almost always going to be a representation of the truth rather than the actual truth.
