Every Awful Thing Trump Has Promised to Do in a Second Term

The former president has pushed a slew of terrifying proposals, both publicly and privately, that he plans to unleash on America should he take down Biden

Here’s what’s at stake:

  • He will indict Biden and his other political enemies
  • He will round up, intern, and deport undocumented immigrants
  • He will send the military to the border
  • He will invade Mexico
  • He will round up the homeless and send the National Guard into cities to fight crime
  • He will bring back the death penalty in a big way
  • He will make stuff more expensive by taxing all imported goods
  • He will reevaluate America’s participation in NATO
  • He will roll back all of Biden’s climate progress and reinvest in fossils fuels
  • He will construct “freedom cities” filled with flying cars
  • He will try to overhaul the education system in the MAGA image
  • He will torch the First Amendment by going after non-MAGA media
  • He will legally delegitimize trans Americans
  • He will pardon the Jan. 6 rioters
  • He will gut the federal government and take unprecedented control of what’s left

They were kind of pretty lame as insurrectionists, I mean they were let in, they had inside tours and were given specific instructions.

God's gracious their two neurons didn't meet each other on that day.

Being an idiot doesn't make you any less of an insurrectionist. Also all released footage shows otherwise.

And I love how the fact that they weren't immediately mowed down with gunfire somehow implies they were permitted to be there. No they weren't, it wasn't a tour, it was an armed insurrection. Cops showing restraint doesn't make you any less culpable for the crime.

Yeah, it usually just means you're white.

Not exactly what happened in Occupy WS...

The tours I'm referring to were given to some of them weeks prior to the event.

You seem disappointed that they failed.

I'm rather grateful. Oddly thinking they resemble the baddies in 80s Saturday morning cartoons.

That said, this year I'm loosing sleep over the thought that someone competent might give it a try.
