There is a particular indignity that comes from living in America, derived from the experience of waking up in the morning to see reports that Donald Trump has said something profoundly evil, and then needing to type “truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump” into your web browser to see if he actually said that. Once there, you can see a post in which Trump did indeed threaten to wipe out the entire civilization of Iran, stacked on top of an ad for a sketchy herbal supplement of some sort:
A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

Could you imagine the public revolt if he’d alleged that an election had been cheated?

Average mid-2020s Tuesday.

Historically pressing him via protest results in him doing the bad thing. If you ignore him like your revise family member in the nursing home he is far less likely to do the bad thing.
You’re more than welcome to try coordinating that. That’s our first hurdle. Second is arming ourselves better than the military and DHS. If we fail, we get martial law and no midterm election.
Talk is easy. This defeatist rhetoric only discourages Americans. We should be empowering protestors. Protests are bringing people together and building an army.
