Human MAGAs should all inject bleach. It's good for you. I heard it on Fox News.
First: ~~Human~~ MAGAs.
Second: I’m more of a proponent for aqueous fluoroantimonic acid instead of bleach, but do recognize the effectiveness and cost savings provided by bleach.
Wow, look at don knowing fancy words, like Aqua's fluoride animatronic acid
Thank you, fartographer ~stop it, autocorrect, I meant the f goddammit~, for your kind if maybe confusing compliment
I have a friend named don. I just met them. It's you. You're my friend now.
Deal with it.

Whoa there America. That sounds like some good ol” fashioned American fascism right there
The fuckass conservatives have long since been brainwashed into fantasizing about being fascist, and the democratic leadership has done pretty much fuckall about it.

Marco Rubio first. POS birthright citizenship. Or let’s deport Ted Cruz. I’m sure Canada will love to have his head on a stick.
Both of them should honestly be real worried about that. If Trump gets to fully exercise that power, and they step out of line a little bit, either one of them would be exiled in no time.
Senator who?

I don't understand! How does trump have so much over reach and why aren't the courts stopping him! Why is our government intentionally creating a fascist dictator!
The president of the United States has always been a public servant who represents the people of our country. He's not a king among men the Office of the President should not have the ability to strip the citizenship of any individual that's what immigration courts are for!
Because more Americans are either fully on board and support this, or don't give enough of a shit to care compared to those who oppose this behavior., and piss and moan every day about how "tHiS iS nOt wHo wE ArE"
Trump is literally America's spirit animal, he represents everything that America stands for: greed, ignorance, hate, racism, bigotry, misogyny, corruption, and deceit. Trump is not an outlier, he is America's mirror.

In this specific case? We've spent the last two decades watching overly broad anti terrorism laws get passed under the implicit agreement they wouldn't be abused. Then comes Trump. Americans have been asleep at the wheel since the 1970's. That's part of why right wing rhetoric keeps getting more extreme. They need to keep their voting base engaged. Most people don't want anything to do with politics. If that doesn't change then no amount of reform will prevent us from voting ourselves out of a democracy.
Trump has started small, piece by piece, bit by bit. He's gotten away with everything else. So why wouldn't he get away with this?
And the people isn't doing anything about it. So why would he stop? Maybe americans should take a note from Ukraine's book. You protest outside the capitol and you don't go home until you get what you want.

Because the entire group, all the leaders, are pedo's. they have all been to that island, Now the island is America.
the opposition cares more about their job/permanent meal ticket and lobbying money than actually opposing, these are problems for peasants like you and me, not chuck schumer and tammy baldwin.
because the people who rabidly defend the second amendment don't give a shit, and approve of his racist oligarch bullshit
Its a good thing Democratic leadership has condemned this. They obviously don't like the man and see him as a threat, but Trump's actions are far worse. They did stand up for him right? Right?
They stand up for him in the most feeble, token way, once they're sure it won't affect the outcome. Then they'll regretfully run Cuomo.

Way to show weakness, cadet bone spurs.
At some point, some country will need to send a task force to El Salvador to liberate people from the concentration camp there.

Oh boy, get ready for mass protest in NYC.
Guess I need to be getting ready for dumbass libs to say. "It's still not fascism".
"Terrorism" as in "Taxing the rich"?
Nothing is off the table for the fascist Trump administration, absolutely nothing.
See we can't have you voting for people the president doesn't like.
Relax everyone, this is all a part of the democratic process.
Damn they really out there brainstorming
I feel like I remember Mrs. Trump and Mr. Musk both talking about "terrorism". I remember Mrs. Trump even had a jacket for the occasion that said "I really don't care, do you?" to flaunt her hatred for our country.
Believe the "Don't really care" jacket was for a tour of a disaster zone, or maybe one of the kids-in-cages camps.

If deporting him turns out not to work, perhaps admitting to psychiatry because of Trump Derangement Syndrom would?
