'Fascistic': Mary Trump warns a Republican admin will let 'everything burn to the ground' — 'literally'
Despite the fact that he is now facing four criminal indictments, former President Donald Trump remains the clear frontrunner in the 2024 GOP presidential primary. Mid-August polls show Trump ahead of the primary's second-place candidate, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, by 39 percent (Quinnipiac Universi...
We know
You seem to be tired of reporting on Trump. What do you want posted? Financial stuff? Climate? Human interest?
Their comment seems more so that this isn't some wild revalation nobody saw coming, this literally almost happened on Jan 6.
I'm all for reiterating the danger that Trump and Republicans pose to our nation, but this article isn't bringing anything new to the convo, just one more voice saying Republicans will throw out democracy when things don't go their way.
Believe me, I'm not.
The other commenter who replied to you is correct about my curt reply; we've been living the reality of Republicans attempting to burn everything to the ground. I agree with Mary Trump, but this isn't a revelation. My comment wasn't meant to be critical of your post, more just a reaction to Mary Trump's revelation.
Well, yes, that would be the case. That's what fascists do, and that is exactly where the GOP and the Trumpists are heading. It's red caps instead of brown shirts, but the story and the behavior is the same.
Profecto
I'm not sure why we're interested in or relying on Mary Trump for this kind of analysis.
Modern, capitalist, purely profit-driven news is all about cheap and lazy reportage. That’s why you get “name check” bullshit like this instead of actual journalism.
It’s also why there are very few news photographers now… “just snap some pics with your phone.”
Not that I’m bitter or anything
Years ago now, i was working contract security in downtown Minneapolis.
There was a nightclub adjacent to the property that had been notorious for causing gang related fights (as well as pulling shit like booking ‘up and coming’ rappers on the same night as their ‘rivals’ to stir up drama.)
Fights spilled over into our property every weekend. Shootings once a month. Nobody cared except the people who had to clean up the bodies. No press coverage, not even a blurb.
Until one night a a Vikings player got shot. He was a 3rd string rookie… but it was a slow news cycle so it got press.
Within 24 hours they had the nightclub closed down “temporarily” during the investigation. Within the week they pulled the liquor license, effectively closing the joint. A few days later they did the same for every property ran by the owners.
Was talking when it was happening and everyone just kinda thought it was a one off. Like… nope…
What are you bitter about, precisely?
I'm bitter! I fart in their general direction!
Still a Trump. That whole genetic lineage is garbage.
And then they blame it on Jewish space lasers. Pretty air tight I'd you ask me.
We're doomed.
