The maga movement actually is fascist and that dark reality should be pointed out loud and clear again and again. https://steveschmidt.substack.com/p/maga-is-fascism There is still time to stop them but not much. Also it's not about left vs right. Some if the most important anti maga fascist voices are conservative Republicans.

Yep

No

Sometimes. Which is why I spell it f-rang.

That will never happen. He didn’t ger the most votes in 2016 or 2020. But anyone with an elementary knowledge of history would already know that dictators are sometimes initially voted in democratically. Kind of silly basic question to even ask.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kathoey "The term kathoey may be considered pejorative, especially in the form kathoey-saloey. It has a meaning similar to the English language 'fairy' or 'queen'.[12] Kathoey can also be seen as a derogatory word for those who are gay.[13]"

Slur

I thinks its fine to identify transgender people in the news. That's much better than the right wing movement in the US to make LGBT people especially transgender people invisible and act like they don't even exist.

I feel horrified to see there is such complacency about the threat of Trump taking power again. This plays into his hands.

I don't agree. As republican nominee he would be the leader of the maga fascist party. Similarly positioned state politicians WOULD follow him.

Is the "truth" what you want to hear? It sounds like you think there is something remotely NORMAL about Trump. That Trump vs. Biden or Trump vs. another democrat is just another partisan contest between a republican and a democrat. Nothing could be further from the truth! Again, informed people get that. It's not only informed democrats but most informed traditional conservative (non maga cult) republicans as well. Hyperbole you say? We Don’t Have to Speculate About Trump’s Next Term - The Atlantic

Is it necessary for large INCOMING transfers?

That's easy to answer. More control over more state legislators where they can play games with electors.

I call B.S.

Even if he loses he will claim victory and his cult fans are much better prepared than last time to stage a successful coup this time. Of course Trump as he always does will incite violence if he loses. It's very foolish to act like the threat isn't real.

Trump is still leading. Only DeSantis is anywhere near competitive at this point. Trump can still run and be elected after felony convictions and from prison. Don't rule out the threat of Trump in power again until he's literally finished (just as Putin). To his cult he is seen as a messianic figure, they worship him, and many are willing to die for him.

It really depends on who the DOJ has turned. Charges related to inciting an insurrection are not off the table yet.

Not at all! https://www.axios.com/2022/07/22/trump-2025-radical-plan-second-term A radical plan for Trump’s second term

Many farmers have heavily invested in indoor growing.

That's gonna hurt.

Not for anyone who has been paying attention to what that horrible man has done and said. I get it. You don't get it. Dictator types historically get MUCH WORSE if they lose power and regain. Trump back in power means the end of American democracy. That is not an extreme outlier interpretation in the slightest.

Fascist dictatorship. American democracy gutted. The constitution gutted. Minorities at risk of their lives even more than now. Fundamentalist Christian theocracy. Abortion made illegal or severely restricted nationally. Criminalization of LGBT people. No more real elections. Loyalty to dear leader Trump tests of all federal employees and firing all those who fail. Criminalization of opposition journalists as under Putin. Takeover of election processes in the majority of states to make it impossible for there ever to be fair elections again. Yes they would still have "elections" just as Putin's Russia still has elections. Screwing Ukraine in favor of genocidal war criminal Putin (who Trump clearly loves).

Good (albeit predictable) news. Reports are now that a deal is getting closer whereby both sides can claim sound kind of win. You'd have to be insane (like Trump who openly advocated for it) to think defaulting is even remotely acceptable. Of course it's not over until the fat lady etc. One thing I wonder about. The 14th amendment gambit was rejected as it was too late. Is it possible to test the 14th amendment (which makes debt default impossible) in the supreme court during a non crisis timeline to wipe out the prospect of financial terrorism in the future?

I'm not clear what you're saying. Biden ALREADY announced this April and at least at this point no democratic party primary presidential debates are planned because no serious challenger has come forward (and most likely none will). Trump would also be a lame duck if he wins but it's well understand if he gets power again (by election, coup, or civil war) he'll be there for life. The only scenario where Biden isn't nominated is because of a health crisis.

My guess is it may go much further than that. "Medical" preparations, tinctures, etc. are much HIGHER PROFIT cannabis products than the very popular flower. I also assume they want to lock in taxation. I have no problem with the taxation part but although what we have now is a relative free for all where this is headed could be a grade A bummer.
