    She was smiling, laughing and overall looking so fucking pleased with herself during her loser speech.

    She always finds new ways to make me sick.

    He’s such a big evil apocalyptic threat that you dumb idiots have to hold your nose and support a genocide to stop him, but also no we won’t just drone strike him and in fact I will be personally calling him to say congrats when he wins.

    It all meant less than nothing to these people, and anyone still defending this is unsalvagable

      I took a VERY small peek at reddit stormfront just now.

      There’s a Jimmy Kimmel crying video upvoted w/ 20K likes on the politics sub.

      First comment is along the lines of “I saw voters interviewed and they’re so fucking dumb! They didn’t even know who was running!”

      Yeah, Americans are ignorant dinguses. Welcome to America.

      If they want random Bob on the street to know who is running and care then maybe, juuuuust maybe, the message can’t only be “Nothing will change. Everything is great already! And if you don’t vote for me, America will be Nazi Germany! But no, I won’t actually do anything about the guy we call Adolf Hitler. That would be wrong!”

      It needs to be “Trump bad” sure, ok. Then also a few bare minimum first 100 days promises. Trump promised the hogs escalated deportations, killing drug dealers, finishing the genocide quickly so they don’t have to look at it. Adolf shit.

      Maybe the answer can’t be “I will deport… less? maybe? immigrants for no apparent reason.” It needs to be “Trump is following the same fascist logic of axis leaders during WWII. He’s called fellow Americans, documented people living and working legally in the United States, vermin and poison. Instead of dehumanizing these people, I will be granting them citizenship which will be a boon to our economy and communities.”

      Instead of “Trump wants to repeal (shitty) Obamacare!” It needs to be “Obamacare was a start, but it didn’t go anywhere far enough. I will be working in the first 100 days to lower the Medicare eligibility age to 55. With that done, I will work with Congress when possible, but go around them when required, to further lower the age of eligibility with an aim towards everyone being eligible.”

      Solid, plausible promises of things she could have forced through quickly with additional long term plans. You meet the promise, and if you get the extra part that’s just free real estate for re-election…

      But clearly liberals, democrats, have absolutely no desire to improve things. They only wish to go rightward… but do it “respectfully.” When the SWAT team kicks in your neighbor’s door looking for an alleged “illegal immigrant” that Nosey Martha down the street falsely reported to JD’s Gestapo because he “looked a little tan”… liberals want the agents and cops to say “Please, drop to your knees with your hands in the air, motherfuckers!” as they flashbang the baby crib and, of course, shoot Fido 5 times in the chest with their MP5.

        Pretty sure her answer was “I will deport more and treat them even more horribly” trying to out republican to the republicans instead of appealing to any Americans with a conscience.

      It’s such a bald faced admission that they don’t actually care what he does, it’s all performative. And I’m not just talking about Harris, all the libs cry “trump is a fascist America is doomed” yet go on living life like nothing is happening. If they actually felt threatened by it you’d think they’d organize or at least try and make the democratic party provide some legitimate opposition. Hell, if Harris actually thought that trump is the next hitler and this is the last election in America why not drone strike his ass?

      The last few years made me understand Nazi Germany a lot more tbh. I (naively in a lib manner) used to not understand how they reached the point of gas chambers and concentration camps and thought it was essentially an aberration and that we could and would take “never again” seriously. Watching the rise of the Fourth Reich (arguments could be made that amerikkka was already the Fourth Reich but I digress) has made it clear to me that the majority of white settlers would be are apathetic to death squads rounding up “undesirables” for mass murder.

            Damn too bad there’s literally no way to influence the justices’ nor is there any way to pack the courts and you just have to respect their decision, too bad there’s no precedent for this. Whelp guess we gotta hand over power to a rabid fascist who will destroy the country, it’s not like the president is legally allowed to murder him or something, oh well.

            John Roberts has made his decision, now let him enforce it

            More seriously you probably wouldn’t need to issue any new executive orders, signing the existing presidential emergency action documents is probably sufficient, plus declaring a couple of people terrorists

        Can’t they borrow the CIA’s heart attack gun? Since Trump is the biggest threat to America?

        Either Trump isn’t Hitler 2.0 or they don’t give a shit that he’s Hitler 2.0

          They have been hitting him with the heart-attack gun continuously since he started running for President, but because his heart is constantly failing on its own, all the gun is doing is restarting it.

        Alternate reality Kamala:

        Democrats, it’s time to fight for our lives. A fascist is about to take power and we need to do everything in our power to stop him.

        Time to get a gun.

          My fellow Americans, I have invoked the 25th Amendment and relieved Pres. Biden of his duties. As President my first priority is activating the national guard and bringing them to protect the white house. Fascists will not step foot in here!

    In a better timeline “peaceful transfer of power” would mean cutting off power to Washington DC and then doing something really funny while all the phones and lights are out
