The former president has pushed a slew of terrifying proposals, both publicly and privately, that he plans to unleash on America should he take down Biden

Here’s what’s at stake:

  • He will indict Biden and his other political enemies
  • He will round up, intern, and deport undocumented immigrants
  • He will send the military to the border
  • He will invade Mexico
  • He will round up the homeless and send the National Guard into cities to fight crime
  • He will bring back the death penalty in a big way
  • He will make stuff more expensive by taxing all imported goods
  • He will reevaluate America’s participation in NATO
  • He will roll back all of Biden’s climate progress and reinvest in fossils fuels
  • He will construct “freedom cities” filled with flying cars
  • He will try to overhaul the education system in the MAGA image
  • He will torch the First Amendment by going after non-MAGA media
  • He will legally delegitimize trans Americans
  • He will pardon the Jan. 6 rioters
  • He will gut the federal government and take unprecedented control of what’s left

        Maybe people will realize that being politically active requires a lot more than complaining online during election years.

        This could have been avoided a long time ago. But the far left is notorious for not showing up when it’s necessary, only to complain afterwards and pretend they had no part in it.

            You’re being made to pick whether to keep a democracy or succumbing to fascism. And you’re picking fascism because you think it’s not your problem.

            I don’t want to see you complain after this election.

                Already with the tankie talking points? Figures you’d be the one to criticize, cry, blame everyone else, and dip.

                    As long as you can hand-waive away your own responsibility for the collapse

                    Is that what you’re doing by throwing around the word “lib” to see where it sticks and choosing to flee because things got too hard and you didn’t get your precious, ideal way instead of playing the cards that we have now by dealing with the most imminent problem first?

                    If you’re arguing in good faith

                    I mean, are you?

                    defend the boots of the man stepping on Palestinian children

                    So you’d rather do nothing, let this keep going, and make it worse by letting another man step on Mexican children next. Got it.

                    But you will likely continue despite that…

                    And you’ve chosen to do nothing but jump ship. It’s arguably worse.

            Oh it’s absolutely a you problem. YOU don’t understand what’s at stake. YOU are stubborn. YOU refuse to listen to anyone that has tried to explain to YOU the consequences of YOUR decision to stay home.

            What YOU are doing affects EVERYONE. But YOU don’t care.

                    If you say so keyboard warrior. Make sure you find a fun video game to play on Election Day while the rest of us are busy trying to save YOUR freedoms.

                    Oh, an I absolutely CAN dismiss you. We’re done here. Go sit down.

                Newsflash, fascism is on the rise everywhere and letting the US get overrun will only make it worse everywhere else.

                If you so think that you can shove the problem over to the next country, I so hope you stop complaining about it and fully commit to stoically accepting that life as it is.
