      my theory is that this is all one big power move from trump, to show people what he can get away with. i don’t think he cares that much about the individual people he’s nominating, he more so cares about showing people that he can pick literally anyone he wants and no one will stop him.

      It literally seems like he’s just picking a mix of Republicans who are most notorious on social media and people who would make Putin the most happy, so you’re not wrong but I don’t think it’s the actual criterion he’s using.

      And Trump is bypassing all background checks by the FBI.

    Very dangerous and the US military will soon resemble the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, because of their insanity towards religion. God is not the the MAGATs.

      As opposed to? Doing the thing we screamed about MAGAs doing? People expect a lot out of Biden here, which is funny since so many people couldn’t get off their asses and vote to prevent this from happening.

        Exactly. America has done this to itself. We absolutely deserve whatever happens at this point.

        Use the office to make convicted felons (in relation to fraud or truthfulness) unable to hold higher office which is the law for most state governments but quizzically not the highest office.

      It’s gonna be more like Nazi battle Royale. We got some major tribalism brewing here.

      Mango Mussolini and his selections are identical to the worms Mao, Adolph, Joseph and Hideki chose. However, the Nazis were not religious in the traditional sense and they threw plenty Catholic and Protestant priests into their concentration camps. The ones who agreed, wore the cross next to the swastika.

      Oh, yeah, that will happen with Matt “baby-rapin’” Gaetz as AG. Hell it wouldn’t happen with Milquetoast Merrick Garland because that would be “political”.

      The big question will be whether or not anyone cares who has the ability to do anything about it.

      Anybody in the trump cabinet who does not present video proof of them raping a child or committing hate crimes while doing nazi salutes is going to be prosecuted for disloyalty.

      It’s the trump white house resume.

    When does Russia invade to de-nazify the US?

    (They already have, comrade. And your citizens voted it in)

    Here’s another question:

    If Russia launched a nuke at the US, would puppet trump use the launch codes?

      I had to check if this was a bad freeze frame or what and nope she fires that hand out straight as a goddamn arrow and leaves it like that. She wasn’t caught mid-wave, just straight up doing the ol’ nazi salute.

      It’s wild that these people are using the same imagery as the nazis. You’d think that they’d have their own brand as most people aren’t knowingly the bad guys and the ones that are are generally smarter than that but they just can’t fuckin’ help larp as the poster children for worst thing the modern world has dealt with(though more recent times are making it look kinda normal).

      Actually the military aggressively weeds out and removes “out right” racist and those with extreme ideologies. Turns out having racist in your military units doesn’t lead to a effective fighting force. Yes there are racist people in the military and it has always been a white male dominated institution. Do to the mixing of all walks of life (kind of like college.) I honestly believe if push comes to shove the military would back the people over Trump. That’s been the true goal of the whole woke military hearings to Congress.

        Same goes for gang related tats. My sister had to explain that she was not in fact part of the Latin Kings for the crown on her shoulder, just a maid in a Mardi Gras crew.
