Victor Davis Hanson Comparison of US Now and the Soviet Union Then

Except for how the top 20 stories on any site are about Biden’s decline, his own party is publicly poo-canning him, and the state of the country is essentially the exact opposite of the Soviet Union’s end, this is exactly the same.

 

and you won't get hauled off to the gulag for daring to criticize Biden. Other than that, virtually identical. Genius observation by the author of the article.

 

...now that his utility has been exhausted, and he has become a liability to *THE* Party.

 

Was hired to do a job (return to normalcy), so yeah.

 

Well, the OP will surely trigger a few folks on this board.

The similarities are extremely concerning to any objective, right-minded American.

 

So Trump is the aging Andropov and going to drop dead of kidney failure 2 years into his term?

 

Funny to think that New Soviet Union is engaged in a proxy war with New Russia.

 

Donald Trump never had utility and he has become *THE* Party.... but keep carrying that water!

 

Why can't these right wing nuts admit Victor Hanson is well past his prime and ignore his senile musings.

 

Arrest warrants and search warrants are part of due process even for conservatives

 

Actually that's what we can expect during a second Trump term. Trump and the Heritage Foundation through its Project 2025 have made no secret that one of their goals is to turn the FBI into Donald Trump's personal police force and if there is any doubt as to what Trump would do with that power keep in mind that he is obsessed with retribution. From an analysis of Project 2025:

Give Trump power to investigate his opponents: Project 2025 would move the Justice Department, and all of its law enforcement arms like the FBI, directly under presidential control. It calls for a “top-to-bottom overhaul” of the FBI and for the administration to go over its investigations with a fine-toothed comb to nix any the president doesn’t like. This would dramatically weaken the independence of federal law enforcement agencies. “There’s going to be an all-out assault on the Department of Justice and the FBI,” said Galston, of Brookings. “It will mean tight White House control of the DOJ and FBI.”​

Ya, but if we elect the rapey traitor who accepted help in an election from Russia, we'll instantly un-Soviet Unionize ourselves, and America will be great again again.

 

Is there a strategy to this?

Blather obviously stupid bullshit so much that the merely incorrect stuff may seem reasonable by subconscious comparison?


Have to just do with this poster what the entire world should have done with Trump from Day 1 : nothing you say is correct, most of it is outright lies, and none of it deserves any consideration whatsoever.

 

Soviet Union: a one party system, totalitarian rule. If the US were a carbon copy of that there would be no GOP and posters like you would be in labor camps. Tell us again how OPPRESSED you are!!!! Gimme a break.

 

Probably because he still knows the head of Ukraine is President Zelensky.

 

So the FBI has searched the homes pf conservatives without warrants and has threatened their entire families? Provide some examples.
