We can't rely on voting. This person and many like him are inhuman and hateful and that right there should disqualify you from holding office, period.

Voting is just being able to influence panicky, problematic, fearful people to get hateful people to win. Nothing is going to be fixed in the long run if we keep allowing these people to hold office. We need a set standard for people that have respect, intelligence, dignity, and compassion for human beings of all kinds to be able to hold office. Voting is just going to make things worse and even if it happens to temporarily fix things, it will eventually swing back the other way.

This country is just inviting fascism by letting the common person have a say in how things are ran.

Not letting the "common man" have a say in how the country is ran FUCKING IS one tenant of fascism.

You seem to have a major infestation of brainworms going on.

Yes, because that is so working so goddamn well in fighting fascism.... all of this wonderful not fascism we have from the hateful, spiteful, right that has totally been destroyed by all of this overwhelming voice of the people stuff we hold so dear...

You have to be fucking kidding me. The REASON WE ARE ON THE CUSP OF BECOMING ONE OF THE MOST FASCIST COUNTRIES EVER IS BECAUSE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS VOTED FOR IT. Are you really this blind and stupid?

Ok, so only uncommon people get to vote. Trans people, neurodiverse people, lefties, redheads, little people, anyone with a vestigial tail. Sounds interesting.

Nobody votes. We run on a platform of common sense, intellectually based, humanitarian, pro-freedom ideals and any single person in our government who even considers opposing those is out on their fascist ass.

...

Or we should severely limit the power of the President.

In the long run, voting system has to be reformed to allow more independent candidates, indeed.

But first we should make sure people like Trump, even if they rose to power, couldn't do damage to the rights of the people.

Except we're still being screwed over by "states rights" (what a laughable concept) and our supreme court and other sources. Trump isn't president and we're still becoming more fascist by the day thanks to his corrupting influence. We limit EVERYONE by creating a system of common sense and humanitarian rights that cannot be crossed in any way.
