JUST TO BE CLEAR: THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN AMERICA.

 

These actions are those of an authoritarian regime, led by a vindictive, witless malignant narcissist. 

Trump has said he admires Kim Jong Un's strangle-hold on his country and people, and his actions against his American political rivals prove this. 


"In the wake of Trump’s summit with Kim in Singapore earlier this week, the president has called Kim “talented” and a “funny guy” with a “great personality” – comments that have sparked a backlash because of the atrocities Kim is accused of carrying out on his own people, including starvation and widespread imprisonment."




Trump has ordered an investigation into Biden’s presidency, targeting his cognitive fitness and use of an autopen. 

"The probe into a former political rival is highly unusual in U.S. history and raises concerns over legal system politicization and authoritarian drift. 

 
Republican Representative James Comer: "Another great thing about Kamala Harris not running for governor—she’s going to have more time to come before the House Oversight Committee and testify about Biden’s cognitive decline. The odds of Kamala Harris getting a subpoena are very high" 






Trump says Obama committed treason. This is Alice in Wonderland-style justice

There's always been a theory out there about the benevolent dictator. Maybe it's time, despite all the chatter, lies, verifiable immorality and more to stop, consider and ask what if...

-The economy grew at 3% in the second quarter. In spite of all the nay sayers critical of Trump's economic leadership and policies, the US economy grew. At 3%. That's pretty good.

-Unemployment has remained low.

-The stock market, which us libs pointed to as proof of good economic stewardship during the Biden Admin, continues to climb, despite the "Trump Tariffs".

-And those tariffs have not crushed the US nor the world economy.

Now none of this means Trump is not a lying, weaselly, immoral, convicted felon and sexual predator. He's all of that, and more, to be sure. But as I often say, two things can be true at the same time.

If anyone thinks the immorality, he's a cad angle is going to derail him, or the 2028 GOP Presidential nominee who will be running on his coast tails, they have not been paying attention.

In 1996, America reelected a cad named Clinton by a pretty large margin. And in 2028, if the current trends continue, we will elect a cad supporting benevolent dictatorial Trump minion. Because, as James Carville famously said during the Clinton era...

For America, "It's the economy stupid".

Welcome to the gilded age where "It's good to be the King!"

It's not justice. It's Social Justice (against Democrats). :)

I have no doubt things will get worse. I expect martial law if 2026 even looks like a blue wave. The Texas gerrymandering must be met with every blue state doing the same, or it's all over.

Pretty clear, that has never happened in America. Rather common in other countries before and during WWII with desultory results. But we have more sense than that, right? *sigh*

The hate seething inside the malignant narcissist is the constant energy being created in his inner world that is a response to his knowing, deep inside himself, that he is a fraud, an incompetent, a failure, and an indecent, unethical, and criminal human being w/out so much as a drop of integrity.

IOW's he knows what he is and he hates himself for it. But he's incapable of acknowledging his problem because he's buried it so deep with layer after layer of malignant narcissism to protect his ego.
