Now John Kelly slams Trump

My fear is that Joe Biden dies in office, and Hunter Biden becomes the president. That’s how it works, doesn’t it?

 

The Democrats don't have an alternative because Biden won't let them. They are not going to deprive an incumbent president of the nomination. The problem is that Biden is too much like Trump in one respect: thinking only of himself. Not to the sick degree that Trump does, of course, but enough to possibly get himself beaten by, as Milley aptly put it, "a wannabe dictator." Biden wants four more years because, well, just because, just like Trump wants to be president again just because. To hell with all other considerations, like what's best for the country.

 

My God, you're naive. Hunter is clearly already running things, with orders directly from the CCP, of course. Seriously, how is none of this sinking in?

 

it’s sad how maga is embracing ideas of death. It’s this bizarre attempt to appear tough and knowledgeable by talking about wanting other Americans to die.

trump is a stain on our country. Why people continue to support him is beyond me. Looks like I'll be voting 3rd party or abstaining on that part of the ballot for the 3rd straight Presidential Election.

 

We are being offered, on one side, a guy with literally no platform other than self-indulgent “victimhood”, and on the other, the incumbent who has demonstrated that he does it have the capacity to serve at 100% for another 4 years, but the party is too frightened to offer up a reasonable alternative. It’s horrible.

 

I think Trump supporters largely fall into two camps. One, blind Jim Jones-type or Waco-type cultists. (Gee, why did Trump hold a rally in Waco of all places?) And two, from a "rational" standpoint, those who want the same thing Trump does, a dictatorship.

Take the white supremacists, for example. They would prefer a dictatorship led by a white man (well, by an orange man anyway) to a racially just democracy.

The talking heads on TV continue to just beat around the bush about what is happening in this country. Just compare the rise of the Nazis in Germany in the 1930s. The same decade btw in which there was a fascist attempt in America to overthrow Roosevelt. This cancer in American society is nothing new today, its time may simply have come to metastasize. And it's beginning to look like it can't be removed.

 

Disagree about trump leading us like Nazi Germany. That is a terrible analogy as that was a such a terrible atrocity.

Trump is a cancer for sure. Hopefully he's found guilty of a felony and he will be long gone.

 

Being convicted of a felony would do it for most office seekers, I’m not certain that, except for a lengthy prison sentence, that would keep people from voting for trump.

If elected, we would likely experience a constitutional crisis when he announces on Truth Social that he is pardoning himself.

 

I'm not referring to the atrocities of Nazi Germany. I'm referring to the rise of that movement in Germany in the 1930s. The MAGA movement, led by an atrocity like Trump, is similar.

 

Wouldn't have to be convicted, just arraigned or accused!

 

It will keep enough. trump has zero chance if he's convicted of a felony IMO.

 

Disagree. Comparing anything to Nazi Germany that doesn't have a mass genocide is an extremely poor analogy.

 

Even if/when he immediately appeals?

 

Agree. its incomprehensible these are the two candidates. Trump I get. He’s a bit loco and doesn’t listen to anyone. But surprised Biden is running. He’ll be 81 next year.

 

I'm no historian, but I'm not aware of a mass genocide in Germany during Hitler's rise to power in the 1930s. You'll have to educate me on that.

 

This is probably true. Some folks were pining for coach Deion Sanders!

 

Yep.

 

I'm glad that someone threw a bucket of water on that.

 

Well, having a discussion about the rise of Nazi Germany and not including the subsequent Holocaust is like talking about Ted Bundy but not discussing the fact he was a serial killer. Sorry, just think you are way out of line with the comparison.
