I believe Trump and republicans don’t give a rats ass because they will either suspend elections or palantair will help to rig the midterms. We need to wake up and come out of denial.

Trump won both times by equating immigrants to savages. That’s proof that racism is killing America. Vote for a racist, get racism. No one elected him for economic reasons. They voted for Trump for: hatred, fascism, racism, sexism, gender discrimination, etc. That's it.

The Trump-Miller position on immigration repression and non-white deportation has two functions: institutionalization of overt racism and stripping immigrants of the possibility remaining legal.

I thought America had gotten past most racism. Sadly, I was wrong. We are governed by sociopaths! They feed off the racism in this country and empowers hate groups.

NO policy in the USA should be based upon hate and racism.

How about wearing this "Keep the immigrants, deport the racists" t-shirt in front of racists and bigots POS? 🤔 👇

Please read Change.org The People's Petition For Global Against Authoritarianism. Read the one dated May 5, 2025 and the one below it, dated 5 days ago. Read both and if you agree, sign and send it on. We need to get everyone to read this and make their own decisions. It could be a chance to get this regime out of office and hold them accountable.

I guess you have not been following Trump and his lawlessness, him being immune from criminal prosecution by SCOTUS, and the GOP congress doing nothing to stop him. It’s called conjuring a fake crisis and declaring martial law. So, please don’t school me. Have a beautiful day and I hope you wake up.

martial law was declared during the civil war, Elections were still held. you do research. Elections are State run per the constitution and Fed elections have never been cancelled. The president can't do it. Congress would have to pass it as a Law, that would require 2/3rds, not a simple majority like The just passed Budget Reconciliation

You think Trump can’t do it? You delude yourself. Look how Orban consolidated power in Hungary and Hitler in Germany. You all are fools if you think he won’t do it because of the law and the constitution. I’m watching our democracy fall in real time. We are well-beyond a constitutional crisis. He’s aided anD abetted by a willing GOP Congressional Majority and a conservative majority on SCOTUS. HEZ DIES WHAT HE DAMN WELL PLEASES. WHAT DO YOU MOT EFFING UNDERSTAND?!?!?! FFS!

Absolutely right, Addy. Just lookout all the freedoms and rights the Dump and his cronies have taken away from us so far. Soon he'll be deporting EVERYONE who disagrees him even in the least little bit! After all, look at how he's treating his once-boyfriend, muskRAT. Anyone who thinks that The Dictator Criminal Deranged Buffoon Psycho can't do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING horrendous hasn't been paying attention.....so far, anyway.

Are you a Trump supporter? Because how else can you not understand this?!?! Have you actually been following Trump’s lawlessness?!?!?! He brought the marines and national guard into Los Angeles over a fake problem that LAPD had under control. They’re still there and there’s no protests going on. He was testing. He can declare martial law if he wants. I can’t help you anymore. You obviously can’t or won’t see how authoritarian leaders work to consolidate power.

No, Addy is right. Just look at what's been happening since the Goon was voted out of office in 2020. Remember 1/6/2021? Still acted like he was president for four years. Now he's back in the Oval Office. The Dump has accelerated his goals (and has accomplished EVERYONE) to turn this country into a dictatorship. He's just about there now..........maybe only a month to go.

Elections are under States political control. Gerrymandering and purging of the polls is one way the States can manipulate the outcomes. There's a matter of legislation power there that in certain states they either suspend the vote, or dictate who's on the ballots.

Yes....and look at all the gerrymandering the republiCRAPS have done since they took control of the majority of the state governments........ It still surprises me that Biden actually won in 2020.

Since the executive branch now has the legislative branch in tow and the judicial branch is slowly been consumed. The Supreme Court has six useless neutered justices presently . Eventually the Executive Branch will control all. You will be living under the dictates of one. Very unpleasant. Even if he can't postpone or cancel an election he can fix it so he only wins. Russian and Hungary have elections and the despots always win. Just saying. I wish this was not true but you are existing in a fascist state right now. Please look over Project 2025.

Absolutely right. In fact, those of us who know the cruelty and hate that The Bimbo in the Oval Office and his republiCRAP supporters have, we need to use that word more often until it sinks into the minds of people who don't really see what's going on. Maybe it will wake them up. I think there are too many people who either don't see what's going on and what's worse, don't care. They just don't realize what standing on the sidelines will do in speeding up the downfall of our republic/democracy.

It can be done in shifts, but it has to be sustained 24 hrs a day. Silent protest by cutting back our individual production just to the point that you won't be fired is another. Consumption of basic daily needs cuts corporate profits across three points of corporate profits. Excluding any children under 18 years, that puts at least a couple hundred million on the streets. How will brother Joe and sister Jane in the militarily react when confronted with orders to attack and arrest their loved ones is another variable. It's a matter of how much each of us wants freedom to prevail.

The Children's Crusades level of Christian cruelty on a daily basis, but with none of the love or caring of Jesus as expressed in The Sermon on the Mount.

It began about 1960 with The Southern Strategy (predecessor to Project 2025), and hasn't slowed for even a moment since.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_strategy

Includes the term "righteous anger", which is a "Christian" concept that allows hate when done with love / Jesus in their hearts. (How very GOP...)
