You are correct. If you're a citizen and a cop decides you're one of "them," good luck convincing them your ID is genuine. If you're carrying it on you.
Yeah. I don't care how many posts I see saying trump voters are regretting their vote. I feel like that is a level of media bias to make those who voted against him feel a bit better. I'd be shocked if even 5% regretted their vote. Maybe in 18 months, just before midterms, things will be different. I think it is more likely that the real problems won't start until after the midterms though.
Same shit happened with Brexit. A blizzard of news stories about how Brits were too stupid to know what they were voting for and everyone regretted their decisions. Then Brexit loving conservatives won the next election in a landslide.
By 2026, there will have been US military deployed in the states for a long time, and everyone will have been sufficiently terrorized by arrests and detentions. Then it'll be "another stolen election, we have to postpone the midterms, because even the US military can't stop the steal."
America is a fascist country already. The fascist plurality turned out in droves to support a guy who was saying what they believed.
Liberals watched this groundswell of fascist support begin to crest and turned to Dick fucking Cheney to bail them out. And then when they lost, 76M to 73M, in a contest of New Fascism versus Fascism Classic, their response was to... blame Muslims, Latinos, and Trans People.
Conservatives, meanwhile, decided to use their big electoral win to checks notes normalize pedophilia.
The most unbelievable part of this is the magat having a crisis after learning (somehow, always for the first time) about Trump's Hitler-worship. Since it hasn't directly affected the magat yet, no way he's going to have the self awareness to freak out.
