that’s fair! But you wouldn’t vote for Bernie over trump? If so, why not?
I wouldn't vote for either. But if you put a gun to my head and force me to vote for one, I guess I'd pick Bernie.

That's after you’ve begged the guy with the gun for hours for another way. “There’s got to be an alternative to those 2!”

The Trump Regime: making America a banana republic. Raise your hand if you didn't know this is where we would go if we put power in the hands of Donald Trump. Yeah, millions of hands I'm sure. Time to wake up, though. Right? Are we waking up yet? Not likely I reckon.

People may think of authoritarian nations in Cold War terms, as states with bombastic leaders who grant themselves extravagant titles and weigh their chests down with meaningless medals. These are nations without legislatures, without courts, with populations cowed by armies of secret police.
This is not how many authoritarian nations work today. Most have elections, legislatures, courts; they possess all the trappings of democracy. In fact, most deny that they are authoritarian at all. “Few contemporary dictatorships admit that they are just that,” writes the scholar Milan Svolik in The Politics of Authoritarian Rule. “If we were to trust dictators’ declarations about their regimes, most of them would be democracies.”
But the democratic institutions that authoritarian nations retain are largely vestigial or have little power to check the executive, either because they are under regime control, or because they are cowed or co-opted into submission.....
On thursday, february 6, millions of Americans went about their lives as they would have any other day. They came home from overnight shifts, took the bus to work, made lunch for their children, cursed the traffic on their commute, or went out for a drink with friends. Yet the nation they live in may have been fundamentally changed the day before.
Since the terrorist attacks of 9/11, the American imagination of catastrophe has been limited to sudden, shocking events, the kind that shatter a sunny day in a storm of blood. That has left Americans unprepared for a different kind of catastrophe, the kind that spreads slowly and does not abruptly announce itself. For that reason, for most Americans, that Thursday morning felt like any other. But it was not—the Senate acquittal marked the beginning of a fundamental transition of the United States from a democracy, however flawed, toward authoritarianization. It was, in short, the end of the Trump administration, and the first day of the would-be Trump Regime.

After all the ways that have been tried to get rid of PRESIDENT TRUMP, you go back to Russian Collusion?
I mean, I'm already very confident in his re-election, but this makes me even more confident.
Knock yourselves out

It's really funny.
Bernie is looking like a probable nominee for the dem ticket, and he is a huge fan of Soviet Russia, even spent time there, and you are worried that Russia wants Trump to win?
You guys have lost your minds.
But hey, if you really believe this crap, then why don't you do something about it? Or is Trump just too good and too smart for you?

Does "you" refer to Trump's own hand-picked Acting Director of National Intelligence?
Trump readily smiles and glad-hands anyone with any real power, for sure. But a lot of what he has done has benefited the ordinary Americans he sees come out to his rallies all over America. It's high talent in terms of vaudeville, puppetry, parlor magic or other simple amusements, but I read him as an actual American with sense enough to do what needs doing.
ha ha. I might be a bit rusty on Russian, but Trump is too old to become another Putin. And besides, there is Don Jr., a pretty well-spoken man of the masses, who might not even run for Pres in 2024. Might be a better time to relax the Constitutional language on natural birth, and let a real anti-Communist, who has lived under Communism and who hates it enough to prod Trump on along the way her thinking runs. But hey, when have we ever NOT had a sort of entrenched elite royalty hogging the White House????
Trump will have to get past Mayor Pete, whom I believe is Obama's man in the running, and who I believe has all the Obama ground support behind him, who will ride the tide of Dem hopes to a close race with Trump.
You swim so deep in the world of your own mind, you believe "Truth" is what you know, and that "Truth" needs no evidence in support because whatever evidence there is MUST conform to the "Truth" you hold dear. And, like all totalitarians, your mind is consumed by your great cause to the extent that no one, nothing else, can have value.
My dau has a Marxist Chem prof, who told me with some great pride, that modern Chem education begins with the "Big Picture", the "Unifying Concepts", which when the student masters these elements, will direct all further organizational efforts resolving experimental or evidentiary material..... infallibly to the "right" conclusion.
This is a kind of authoritarianism that makes the Middle Ages blush in terms of darkening human reason, and you are in the same harness, running to the same whip.
It's the things that "Don't fit" with the established belief that have historically given rise to better understanding.

"As Americans, we should be frightened — deeply afraid for the future of the nation. When good men and women can’t speak the truth, when facts are inconvenient, when integrity and character no longer matter, when presidential ego and self-preservation are more important than national security — then there is nothing left to stop the triumph of evil".

William H. McRaven, a retired Navy admiral, was commander of the U.S. Special Operations Command from 2011 to 2014. He oversaw the 2011 Navy SEAL raid in Pakistan that killed Osama bin Laden.

Damn, even the lefts hero who they hated one second, then loved, now hate again just put them in their treasonous places. Lol the left literally(literally) impeached a president over hearsay. @Red I agree we should be terrified when people impeached a president for absolutely nothing. But thank God for partisan MSN to tell us that they have hated the president since day one... Definitely no obvious bias there.
“Bolton contended that the House ‘committed impeachment malpractice,’ drawing some grumbling from the audience, saying ‘the process drove Republicans who might have voted for impeachment away because it was so partisan,'” reports the Associated Press
“People can argue about what I should have said and what I should have done,” Bolton said. “I would bet you a dollar right here and now, my testimony would have made no difference to the ultimate outcome.”

"If this president doesn’t demonstrate the leadership that America needs, both domestically and abroad, then it is time for a new person in the Oval Office—"
Yeah this McCraven guy definitely should have a job after undermining his Chain of Command. Undermining your boss is completely acceptable in military and the boss should just fully trust this person to do as asked. Right @Red ? If you hired someone to do a very important job and he told you to step down , you'd give him a raise, right? I mean my last boss was a sexist pig but I'd be fired too if I went around telling people right in front of his face he should step down....
The lack of simple common sense is astonishing.
