    Not when the person actively states their desire to destroy the United States of America as we know it.

    It is the duty of all patriotic people to oppose such a person with all their strength.

    This. :clap:

    Actual conservatives see Biff as the feckless autocrat that he is and oppose him. Even if it means voting Democrat because a third party isn’t going to beat him.

    Once the threat of him is gone we can go back to arguing over differences of policy, but until then he remains a very bad man and deserves every bad thing he’s got coming to him and then some.

    Exactly what I thought. Trump’s gonna do all of these horrible things, yet we already had four years of Trump and he didn’t do any of those things. Meanwhile, Obama said he wanted to fundamentally transform America and you clapped like a seal and voted for him, didn’t you?

    " I said I want to be a dictator for one day." You believe he'll only be a dictator for one day? "If I happen to be president and I see somebody who's doing well and beating me very badly, I say, 'Go down and indict them,'" Nothing destructive about that :brood:

    Jesus Christ.

    "Fundamentally transforming" something is neither inherently good nor inherently bad.

    Its goodness or badness stems from what you want to fundamentally transform the thing into.

    Ask a woman trying to get an abortion or even IVF in Alabama if he fundamentally changed anything you fucking self centered oblivious child.

    Also saying ‘he tried to be worse but people stopped him last time, we should let him try again now that he knows not to pick those people’ is exactly the high level of analysis I expect from you.

    I always took the dog as saying he’ll be fine despite the house being on fire.

    I didn’t realize that Trump was the governor of Alabama. Is there anything you don’t blame him for, a sunburn perhaps?

    You realize he can’t just declare himself dictator and everyone just goes along with it. We have checks and balances, you know.

    Well, when you have communists in your administration, it makes me think you want to transform the country into something resembling communism.

    Who appointed the justices that were the decisive votes in overturning Roe you fucking simpleton?

    If Hillary had been elected could women get abortion, proper neonatal care and IVF everywhere in America?

    Yes? Then Trump is responsible you dolt.

    If he replaces everyone with cronies like he plans to, he can.
    One of the checks is the SC, and he's proven he's already got them in his pocket.

    So the whole entire military goes along with it too? Do you not see how ridiculous this is?

    Dis you?

    Interesting that you think "senile" Biden can bring socialism to America (even though he's never said that he'd do that) and there's nothing anyone could do to stop him, but when Trump says that he'll be a dictator, you think that he'd be stopped if he actually tried. I'd point out that someone saying that they'd be a dictator for any length of time should be an automatic disqualifier for holding elected office but that'd be giving you credit for thinking that dictators are a bad thing. Which is the impression that you like to give, but not one that you believe. Sorta like you claiming to be a Libertarian all these years and then admitting that, no, you really were a "conservative." (I'm waiting for the day when you admit that you're actually not a non-denominational Christian, but are a proud member of some fundamentalist sect that thinks The Handmaid's Tale describes an ideal society.)

    The terrifying truth that keeps you awake at night, the one that makes you rage about all the things you complain about here, isn't that this will somehow destroy the very fabric of America, but that it won't. See, you no doubt tried to follow the rules laid out in that book written by Bronze Age goatfuckers and thought that if you did what it said, you'd be happy. But it didn't really work. And you thought that the problem wasn't the book (and the dingleberry ideas that believers in that book carry with them), it was "modern culture in America." So, you got yourself a mail-order Russian bride, since they still held "traditional values" and loved American freedoms (freedoms, which I might add, you seem eager to deny to a lot of people you don't like), but that didn't work out.

    Of course, that could have been a one-time thing, so you got yourself another, and that didn't work out either. The problem was never you, of course. It couldn't be. You were a good boy. You did what you were told. Oh sure, maybe not all the time, but you didn't do anything really bad. A little weed here and there, a DUI, yelled at your wives, but you didn't actually kill anybody. (Except for that whole abortion thing, which was different, except that it wasn't, but it is, and anyway it doesn't matter since Gawd forgave you for it. So why should anybody bring it up again?)

    But you've got all the stuff that means you're happy. You know, a job, a home, car, etc., so despite the fact that you're miserable all the time, you can't really be unhappy. And rather than engaging in anything like introspection (or, Gawd-forbid, therapy with a mental health professional), you hope that we'll elect a President who'll burn the entire planet down because, like you, he's got unresolved daddy issues. That way, everyone will be subjected to the same kind of soul-crushing misery you secretly endure. Shit, dude, just having the courage to admit that you like Trump will go a long way to alleviating your problems, since for once in your wretched life, you'll demonstrate the courage to stand up for things that you believe in. But even that's a bridge too far for you, so you'll pretend that you "don't like" Trump because when he falls from grace in the eyes of people such as yourself (the same ones who now pretend that they didn't like W, but sure as shit didn't object to anything he did while in office), you have the "easy" out.

    I love how there's never in the history of humanity been a country that was communized (is that a word?) by too much Medicare, or too many flamboyant gays, and yet that's the exact doomsday fairy tale they cling onto like a 3 year old's belief in Elmo being real.

    I guess there's something magically special about America, that that's the road we'd go down.

    Mmm, yeah, those Obama brownshirts really bruised the shit out of my arm when they dragged me off.
    And that FEMA deathcamp really wore me out until I finally died.
    Stupid FEMA death camp.
    If only I'd credulously listened to dribbling wackos for the truth, I would have survived the dark times.
