Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute and his associates drafting plans to potentially invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day in office to allow him to deploy the military against civil demonstrations.
It would be so funny if America re-elected Trump after everything.
It really wouldn’t be.
it’s funny in a morbid way. after everything Trump fucked up catastrophically—all the wars he nearly started, all the people he killed through inaction, all the things he tried to do to overthrow the government—it would be very poetic if he just won conventionally. all you could really do at that point is laugh about it.
I respectfully disagree.
I don’t find the end of civilization and the subjugation of minorities and women even morbidly funny.
Let’s not be hyperbolic. It’s not the end of all civilization. It’s just the decline of ours. We all learned about stuff like this in history class in high school and college. The Roman Empire declined and fell. Tons of others did the same. It’s just our turn. We’re not special or exempt from annihilation. Time catches up to everyone.
