    Trump isn’t going to give up power willingly. He is openly and gleefully breaking everything with no thought of the consequences. Republicans wouldn’t be going along with it unless they think they are untouchable. If they think kidnapping people with no due process and dumping them in concentration camps isn’t going to have a consequence, then they are all in. Trusting the rest of their lives on Trump isn’t a bet I would take, but I’m just an everyday idiot.

    Blah, blah, blah.

    Most people supported the impeaching the fat fascist in his last term too and it went nowhere because Republicans, independents voted the hard R.

    And what’s different now? Not a damn thing. This will go nowhere outside of calls from the current Democratic leadership mewling pathetically and ineffectively for bipartisanship just like last time.

    Please don’t though. It’s just handing Trump an easy victory and perceived exoneration for his crimes.

    Which is exactly what happened the last two times.

    I think removal from office would be better. He can do the third term in his own delusional mind.

        Who, me? I am not from Burgerland. Also, this was done by Italian communists, not superior, enlightened, liberal European society or something. Where are the left parties in Europe, curbing right wing politics? I don’t see them. Europe is slowly falling for the same right wing politics. Falling profits and rising inequality will lead to the capitalist class propping right wing governments to suppress dissent by using tired talking points like immigration and ‘culture’, and, to paraphrase one among those fellows who hanged Mussolini, capital will not be able to preserve itself without killing liberalism to give way to fascism.

    it won’t happen. buy guns.

    it’s more important that the people speak with bullets anyway. we need to establish a precedent for people like him. a warning for future idiots and sociopaths. a reason for the rest of the morons to pay attention.

          You are basically saying “if we unfucked our current situation then we could impeach and remove him from office”, because the impossibility of holding him accountable is part of the problem.

      You ever see those memes where the killer comes into the house, but can’t find the victim. So the killer does something akin to "shave and a haircut two bits…

      You don’t have to kill these people. But you have a duty to revoke their right to vote.

      While I agree that fascists like him should be afraid to go out in public, that particular fascist dying would make him a martyr. He needs to live long enough to be convicted again and actually serve jail time.

        That is silly because the US justice system will never ever do that, you could just as well hope to win the lottery and have better odds. The US justice system is dead, if it ever existed. His demise is a much more realistic hope.

        Also they already act like he is a martyr, it won’t change anything with regards to that.

            It allowed corporations to buy up all the media outlets they wanted, leading to homogenization of content and elimination of voices that corporations find offensive. On The Media podcast did a miniseries about it called The Divided Dial, which was nice to hear because I had been ranting about it for years but it seemed that nobody else was paying attention. I think it’s on YT, but search and ye shall find

              Thanks for the info. I guess Clinton is equally as responsible as Reagan for the calamity we are facing today.

              What are your thoughts on what should be done to return sanity to media?

                Time to kill every fucking one of those goddamn Nazi pieces of shit Clinton actually campaigned as the first Democratic president to embrace Reagan’s neoliberalism. It’s been a downhill slide ever since. At this point sanity can only be restored through violence, both against the current Nazi regime and against the septuagenarian neoliberals who have a White knuckle grip on the Democrat party

        Pandora’s box is already open, I don’t think that would work. Another approach would be to remove hate speech from being considered free speech. Targeting violence towards minority groups shouldn’t be protected by free speech.

    Step 1: Vote for Trump.

    Step 2 (less than six months later): Support impeaching Trump.

    What’s up with this group of people? Were they expecting something different?

        Majority of america voters are below measurable iq cause they voted for a baby rapist felon who tried to do a coup. A large portion are insanely stupid since they didn’t vote or voted for some third option in a 2 party system.

        I think a lot of it is cultural a bit? I’ve seen interviews and these are Republican voters for like years and years and would never consider voting otherwise.

          culture does effect this not all trump voters are the same some absolutely do know exactly what they are voting for others don’t this even includes some lifelong republican voters. a lot of Americans treat politics as a team sport and don’t even know a lot of the policies they are actually supporting when they vote republican and when asked about specific issues they may have a more progressive stance than the republican party does.

          a lot of people don’t really think about politics or actively read the news I think ignorance is a large part of what got trump into power (and how republicans stay in power). trump says he is going to fix everything and the democrats are telling them that the economy is doing great actually but they are still negatively impacted by things like inflation to someone who isn’t paying attention trump might seem better because at least he acknowledging their economic struggle and is saying they will do something to fix it.

          there are also a lot of people who just didn’t like either candidate and thought trump would be slightly better and voted for him these are probably the trump voters who want him impeached right now.

            trump says he is going to fix everything and the democrats are telling them that the economy is doing great actually

            I felt this was a bit of failed messaging on the Democrats. I think they did point out some of the struggles but when talking about the economy and immediately pointing to stock market highs when the cost of living has sharply risen very recently doesn’t connect.

            Trump’s magic is that he has verbal diarrhea and it’s kinda like an empty slate where you take whatever you want from his speeches.
