Pure hitlerism

But he's being taken out of context!1! /s

The threat from outside forces is far less sinister, dangerous, and grave, than the threat from within.

I never thought I'd agree with the Orange Bellend but here we are. I guarantee we're referring to different people though.

Thats always his thing, he tried to interfere with the election? the prosecution is election interference. He committed fraud in NY? The GA is the fraud.. Hes the worst threat of our times against democracy? No the people pointing it out are the actual threat, lmao. And so on its always somewhere in his whinny drivel. Impressive

I'd love for these asshats to be made to define what they mean by a "Communist", etc.

My very conservative mother (who I no longer speak to) once got mad at Amazon, as in Amazon.com the capitalist empire, and said that they were "the most communist thing ever." Communists are whoever makes you mad or whoever the alt right media claims they are. Or something like that.

Oh, and sorry to hear about your mother. I suspect conservatism has destroyed more than a few family relationships.

I know, the weird pivot to hating on things like Amazon or "Big Tech" has been a strange turn. I mean, I know the cons like baby hands are pretending to be populist, but really? A lot of the base seem to be nothing but reprogrammable meatbots. If the likes of baby hands or tuckems or whatever tell them that these modern-day robber barons are "Communist" they'll buy it. I mean some of them probably even think Elon is in on the Communist plot because of the EV and solar thing.

This, after years and years and decade upon decade of them pulling the Worthington's Law on anyone criticizing the elite. That's exactly what they pull for baby hands. But for "Big Tech" it suddenly is bad to amass billions of dollars because they have been told Big Tech - which has help to prop up and propagate literal Nazi content - has been busily censoring conservative speech (lol).

Trump is accidentally right about the threat coming from inside this country. It absolutely is. But if he wants to see the threat, he needs to look in the mirror and look at his supporters - not at the left.

Uh oh, going to piss off his fascist base. I know he’s trying to associate it with just the left.

If you follow the sentence structure, it actually reads like he is pledging to root out the assorted groups mentioned.... to steal / cheat on elections.... and to do anything possible to destroy America. That's pretty much in line with his past efforts, so I have to wonder if this is intentional Doublespeak.
