I say we give him a chance. It'll be like all those people that take one hit of meth and set the pipe down and say 'ya, this isn't really hitting the spot for me'.

/s if I didn't slather it on hard enough

I do wonder, though, what they'd do when

crops are left rotting in fields and houses and buildings aren't rebuilt after disasters because all undocumented immigrants have been reported;

after LGBT+ folks hide themselves and "fit in" for safety like it's the 1950s;

when there are masses of unemployed young people born after abortion and contraception are outlawed living in a nation unequipped to handle them;

after the education and environmental protection systems cease to exist and the country falls behind in every metric of a developed nation from an absence of knowledge pools and poison in everything.

What will they do after creating an environment that fosters stability, innovation, and a thriving society like we saw in the mid-2010's Middle East. It sure sounds like a great and prosperous future, doesn't it. Right?...

It's pretty hilarious that Republicans want to get rid of undocumented immigrants when our food and shelter are literally dependent on them. Apparently food and shelter are not that important.

In order:

Use prisoners to do the labor

Crackdowns, secret police, and full on lavender scare shit

Drive them to crime then imprison them to use for labor

Why would they care? They’re planning to be in charge

Fascists do nothing but destroy their homes and neighbors. They will make everyone miserable and their plans will suck, but so long as they can stay angry, indignant, and targeting someone they don’t care that they just got their country turned to rubble.

Historically, dictators go hand in hand with peaceful transfers of power after their term is done!
