Please quote the part where you claim I say Hitler was right.

When Trump says that immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country, do you agree with him?

    The sad reality is that you would defend any move by Trump to establish a dictatorship.     

  • Anyone that get's in the way of the left must be destroyed, nothing new about Trump.    Remember, they called Bush hitler too. If Trump dropped dead and DeSantis was the front-runner, they'd

  • …by the left. Dictator by what definition? Just because a group states a descriptive doesn’t make it true. Though such descriptives are a reflection of those who hurled them.

Yes. Now please quote the part where you claim I say Hitler was right.

You agree with Trump when he directly channels Hitler but then claim you didn't say Hitler was right. Admit it, you weren't in the debating club at school were you?

Headlines blaring warnings about how a second Trump presidency could slip toward dictatorship on Monday prompted a stiff pushback from allies of the ex-president, who is topping GOP primary polls just weeks before the Iowa caucuses.

The Washington Post, The Atlantic and The New York Times each published stories referencing a “Trump dictatorship” in recent days, arguing a new Trump presidency posed a threat to democracy. The Times wrote a second Trump term likely would be more radical than his first.

 

“All of these articles calling Trump a dictator are about one thing: legitimizing illegal and violent conduct as we get closer to the election,” Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), a Trump ally, wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Everyone needs to take a chill pill.”

“It’s August 2016 all over again. Skyrocketing cost of health care has millions worried. President Trump’s Dem. opponent off the campaign trail & hiding from the press,” senior Trump adviser Jason Miller wrote on X.

“Dems & their media allies have given up on debating issues & have shifted to name-calling & rhetorical fearmongering,” he added.

The Atlantic announced Monday the magazine’s January/February issue would be dedicated to what a second Trump term would mean for immigration, civil rights, the Justice Department, climate and more. The magazine’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, wrote an editor’s note titled, “A Warning,” to introduce the series.

The New York Times on Monday published its latest piece in a series focused on what a second Trump term might mean for the country. In it, the reporters noted Trump’s rhetoric on the campaign trail “has attracted growing alarm and comparisons to historical fascist dictators and contemporary populist strongmen.”

And a Washington Post opinion column penned by editor-at-large Robert Kagan headlined, “A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending,” made an extensive case that Trump’s reelection could feasibly set the U.S. on a path to becoming a dictatorship.

I know it's all True because I saw it on TV.  Have people not learnt yet that the MSN is nothing more than War Mongers and have an agenda all of their own. "Just not good for our democracy" they say in unison.

He said he was going to be a dictator. He has made many pronouncements which establish that intention unequivocally.

Danderman can’t quote me saying Hitler was right because I didn’t say it.

Now I asked you whether you had read Mein Kampf or not, because that is necessary to understand the context. Hitler’s political vision was steeped in race, his obsession was to safeguard the Aryan race and when he says “all great cultures of the past perished only because the originally creative race died out from blood poisoning”, it is pretty self-explanatory.

 

Trump’s political vision, however, is fundamentally protectionist and therefore, logically (as was the case with the original left such as embodied by Jean Jaurès) is against mass immigration. When he says immigrants are poisoning “the blood of our country”, he is referring to the economic and social fabric of the country.

In line with his protectionist vision, he also said that he was going to “stop the invasion of our southern border and begin the largest domestic deportation operation in American history."

There isn’t – and never was – a racial component to Trump’s political view. Only an ignorant or a mediocre sophist would say this.

 

Oh and while we’re on the subject, what’s your take on this?


"It's not confined to a party," Biden said regarding attitudes about race. "And I think the two-party system, although my Democratic colleagues don't like me saying this, I think the two-party system is good for the South, good for the Negro, good for the black in the South, and other than the fact that they still call me boy, I don't think they've changed their mind on this."

A distinction without a difference.

 

"The blood of our country" = "the blood of our race". 

 

 

dictatorship ... :giggle:

 

... simply shows how extremely ignorant & bias MSM is.  Thankfully presidents are appointed, and only for a 4 yr stretch at a time, limited to 2 terms.   Imagine if voting actually meant anything.  

 

People would probably re-elect the same idiots every time, and the place would really be a mess, year after year ... oh wait ... they do ... som nam na  :coffee1:

Trump has already talked about invoking the Insurrection Act, which means he could cancel elections.

Even if he could (he can't) how would that allow him to ban future election and stay in office longer than 1 more term.

 

It would mean the military would agree with his decision, which they wouldn't.  All these 'what ifs' are so ridiculous, I find it hard to believe semi intelligent people even consider them as a possibility.

 

Trump suggested it's use to stop the BLM riots that swept the country, and never as a way for a president to stay in power.  Agree with that, since the Dem city/state let they riot.  Ask the locals if they wanted protecting that the left local govts weren't providing.   Don't think you'd be surprised of the answer.

 

Never let the facts get in the way of a good spin.

If we are lucky this will set a precedent for more states to come on board.

The ruling will no doubt be more ammunition for Jack Smith.

What Trump said is available all over the Internet. Perhaps you are trying to argue that he didn't say it.

 

The problem is that he paraphrased Hitler, and you don't care.

 

What's next?

I usually ignore such stuff, reported in tabloid rags, and simply googled, the 'Act', which came up with this on 'wiki' ...

 

"On June 1, 2020, President Donald Trump warned that he would invoke the Act in response to the George Floyd protests following the murder of George Floyd. In his official statement, Trump urged "every governor to deploy the National Guard in sufficient numbers" to re-establish civil law and order "until the violence has been quelled". Federal officials talked Trump out of invoking the Insurrection Act. The National Guard were called during the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol, but not active-duty military."

 

You did get the one part correct ... I don't care

Trump reportedly considered activating the Insurrection Act twice during his presidency — first to quell Black Lives Matter protests and later to hold on to power after his election defeat. 

 

 

But now, Trump is talking about suspending the Constitution. 

 

Of course, you don't care.

Suspend the Constitution ... good one.

 

And yet, when I mention WEF, Davos, Bilderburg , and their puppeteers, I'm called a conspiracy nutter ... go figure.

Didn't that happen ~250 years ago? I find it almost funny when a nation so young as the USA, built almost totally on immigration, suddenly thinks it has a huge immigration issue.

 

How can you, with a straight face, give weight to a comment by Trump about the dilution of American blood by immigration when 2 out of 3 of his wives have been foreigners? 4 out of 5 of his children were born to those women. He has diluted the blood line (how and when do you measure what you believe is 100% American blood?) more than the vast majority of the nation.

 

He's a hypocrite, amongst many other things.

Wow, you have a terrible track record where Trump is concerned:

 

Former President Donald Trump faced rebuke Sunday from officials in both parties after calling for the “termination” of parts of the Constitution over his lie that the 2020 election was stolen.

So, for you, suspending the Constitution is a bad thing only if 100% is suspended. But you are okay if, for example, Trump just suspends the Bill of Rights. Or the 13th Amendment.

 

Got it.

Complete rubbish. Trumps agenda has nothing at all to do with protectionism. He is on record as being anti-protectionist. He has outsourced manufacturing to China. His motivation is racism, pure and simple.
