    Normally this would end a Presidency within days of making remarks like that.

    Nothing about this is normal.

    Don’t let them normalize this shit.

    Join the next general strike or you’ll be the next victim he can brag about or blame you for being a terrorist.

      One atrocity can dissolve a government. But one atrocity every day can keep even the most hated and incompetent leader in power for a long time. While we‘re busy processing what has happened yesterday he already committed another unforgivable crime. And it goes on and on and on. He simply overwhelms the people with atrocities to the point everyone fights their own battle and debates which of the many crimes is worse and needs to be addressed.

      The only way to stop it from normalizing is by stopping it from happening. People can’t negate the normalizing process by sheer will.

  • I remember watching TV shows and the president is often portrayed as a good person that would rather risk classified tech falling into the hands of enemies just to save the one remaining service member on the sinking ship/submarine…

    Then you look at IRL and rewatch that scene and its just so silly lmao, completely unrealistic.

    (I think it was Designated Survivor that I remember that scene from)

    IF ONLY we get those benevolent fictional presidents IRL

    How a PTSD-tormented vet hasn’t plugged this cunt yet is beyond me. He’s said at least a dozen things in the last 10 years that would justify it. I mean he let the fact that there were Russian bounties on US service members go completely unanswered. Nevermind the repugnant things he says about them, he lets them be the target of headhunting sociopaths because he’s too much of a fucking pussy to say a single word against Putin.

    Signing up for military service under Trump is insane in the membrane.

      lost track on how many MAGAs attempted to murder him already. I think 3 attempts so far.

      but they are MAGA, so not the most competent or smart people

      The bounty thing was never confirmed. That’s why Biden didn’t do anything about it either.
