Not just Trump, the Supreme Court, the republican party and the 1% all want a totalitarian state…

Its no surprise a totalitarian is turning this country into totalitarianism.

>’something much closer to a totalitarian state’
So close in fact, that it would be a totalitarian state.
Thank you Chris Murphy for beating the drum.

“FROM the nature of despotic power it follows, that the single person, invested with this power, commits the execution of it also to a single person. A man, whom his senses continually inform that he himself is every thing, and his subjects nothing, is naturally lazy, voluptuous, and ignorant. In consequence of this, he neglects the management of public affairs. But, were he to commit the administration to many, there would be continual disputes among them; each would form intrigues to be his first slave, and he would be obliged to take the reins into his own hands. It is, therefore, more natural for him to resign it to a vizir, and to invest him with the same power as himself. The creation of a vizir is a fundamental law of this government.”

People still having Civil War and revolution fantasies need to remember how fast his own party distanced themselves from Trump after the last election. Trump and Pence aren’t even on speaking terms anymore.
These Maga congressmen and judges are spinless ass kissers who will abandon ship the second it is no longer advantageous for them to support Trumps delusions of grandeur. They are not are some inner circle of confidants and ruthless enforcers. Calm the f*** down.

Progressives have been trying to sound the alarm for YEARS, way to catch up.

So far all he’s managed to do is transition us into one of his businesses! Badly managed, Criminal, and destined for bankruptcy.

He told us, but some didn’t listen or some didn’t care.

Yes, we know. Please stop writing these stupid pieces and tell people what to do to stop it.

No need to pull that punch. We are living under a lawless, unconstitutional emergency obsessed administration that has usurped all power. The only thing left is resistance.

The Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society want to transition the US away from the Constitution, and back into the Articles of Confederacy, they thought Trump would be their useful idiot. And like everyone who bets on Trump, they’re losing their shirts.

We keep hearing this. What we dont hear are details on Project 2029… are there any dems with a national strategy? Republicans put together project 2025 when they had no power.

Pretty sure he already has. Nobody’s stopping anything he wants to do.

It will be interesting to see what happens once 20% of the population are no longer able to feed their families. Will Trump have his ICE Army fully operational before the torches and pitchforks appear?

And he’s succeeded. We are much closer to a totalitarian state.

Oh sure, when they transition it’s okay, but *when I* transition suddenly I’m “evil” and “deranged”

Trying to? He’s succeeding, and nobody seems interested in stopping him. The most resistance I’ve seen to the ballroom is a light scolding from the View ladies.

Why are all the news headlines like “Trump doing something dangerous for America, be warned!”
Like, we fucking know. We’ve been knowin. Do something about it

OMG. Did he just arrive at that conclusion?

If the rich want to pay for government, let them. That’s what we want anyways.
Keep it closed until they back off on healthcare.

The first presidential election I was eligible to vote was 2020. I have been watching the GOP act like this since and when I would say it people accused me of being hysterical, especially boomers.

Ohh so that can transition with noone telling them no, but I have to have several letters just to even get a prescription, and that’s not even talking about insurance

So Trump self-Identifies as a Dictator. He is a trans-conservative.

So lets talk Originalism…
“First: They are to govern by promulgated established laws, not to be varied in particular cases, but to have one rule for rich and poor, for the favourite at Court, and the countryman at plough.
Secondly: These laws also ought to be designed for no other end ultimately but the good of the people.
Thirdly: They must not raise taxes on the property of the people without the consent of the people given by themselves or their deputies. And this properly concerns only such governments where the legislative is always in being, or at least where the people have not reserved any part of the legislative to deputies, to be from time to time chosen by themselves.
Fourthly: Legislative neither must nor can transfer the power of making laws to anybody else, or place it anywhere but where the people have.”
