This election is truly a state of emergency for the republic. A criminal has taken over the Republican Party and wants to impose his dictatorial rule over America. If this isn’t a national crisis, I don’t know what would be.
From the New York Times:
Former Marine general John Kelly and the Trump White House’s longest-serving chief of staff told the New York Times that he believed that Donald Trump met the definition of a fascist.
“Well, looking at the definition of fascism: It’s a far-right authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy. So certainly, in my experience, those are the kinds of things that he thinks would work better in terms of running America. Certainly the former president is in the far-right area, he’s certainly an authoritarian, admires people who are dictators — he has said that. So, he certainly falls into the general definition of fascist, for sure.”
“And I think this issue of using the military on — to go after — American citizens is one of those things I think is a very, very bad thing — even to say it for political purposes to get elected — I think it’s a very, very bad thing, let alone actually doing it,” Mr. Kelly said.
“He
commented more than once that, ‘You know, Hitler did some good things, too,’”
Mr. Kelly said Mr. Trump told him.
We recall former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley told Bob Woodward, "He is now the most dangerous person to this country," and a "fascist to the core".
What does it say about our country that these generals who worked with Trump are ignored and dismissed by the Republican Party? This is not just abnormal. It's an unfolding national nightmare.
Republican Governor of New Hampshire Chris Sununu was asked on CNN whether Trump praising Hitler causes him to reconsider his support for him.
SUNUNU: "No ... It’s all about the results. Look, we've heard a lot of extreme things about Donald Trump, from Donald Trump. Unfortunately, it’s kind of par for the course. With a guy like that, it's kinda baked into the vote at this point."
BOLDUAN: Are you okay supporting someone who Marine Gen. John Kelly says fits the definition of a fascist?
SUNUNU: I think most of America is gonna go this way.
Well, every FASCIST American will go this way, followed by the obedient herd of shameless, sniveling, sycophantic, submissive conservative Republican cowards like Sununu.
Q: What kind of people vote for a fascist?
A:
Fascists.
This is not who most Americans are.
But there are enough of them to elect Trump if decent Americans don't overwhelmingly vote to stop the criminal Tangerine Tyrant.
Fascists are authoritarian bullies. They are consumed by anger and resentment, seeking vengeance and retribution towards those they hate, or hold them accountable, or otherwise get in their way.
Trump has declared his intention to send the military after Democrats, calling them the “enemy within”. Hell, yes, that fits the definition of a fascist.
On October 22, 2024 NPR reported Trump has made more than 100 threats to prosecute or punish perceived enemies.
Vice President Kamala Harris “should be impeached and prosecuted,” Trump said at a rally last month.
“I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America, Joe Biden, and the entire Biden crime family,” Trump said last year.
“ELIZABETH LYNNE CHENEY IS GUILTY OF TREASON,” reads one post Trump reposted on his social media site, Truth Social, regarding the former Republican congresswoman.
“START ARRESTING THE POLL WORKERS AND WATCH HOW FAST THEY TELL YOU WHO TOLD THEM TO CHEAT,” reads a message Trump reposted on social media in 2023.
Trump and his toady Rudy Giuliani falsely and viciously accused black poll workers Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss of fraud and interfering in the 2020 election.
Rudy will be parting with some of his nice things.
NBC News announced the judgement against him.
A federal judge in New York has ordered former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani to turn over his luxury Manhattan apartment and many of his valuables to the two Georgia election workers he defamed.
In
a decision released Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman ordered Giuliani,
a longtime ally of and former lawyer for former President Donald Trump, to
transfer personal property "including cash accounts, jewelry and
valuables, a legal claim for unpaid attorneys’ fees, and his interest in his
Madison Avenue co-op apartment to a receivership" within seven days.
Trump and Giuliani were cheered by their fellow racists for this shameless and cowardly smearing of the two innocent women. Trump is their Great White Hope.
When fascism comes to America it will be welcomed by duped and frightened white men.
Sadly, they are just following the worst of American traditions.
America has a long history of racism and white supremacy.
Since before the Civil War they have been ripping our country apart by dividing Americans against one another.
And for 90 years since the rise of Hitler there have been American Nazis among us. They seriously conspired to remove FDR by force.
At the sedition trial of American Nazi agents during WWII, former Nazi Dr. Hermann Rauschning offered the following testimony.
“Adolf Hitler said the United States was threatened with a bloody revolution. He said he would be able to make this revolution come to pass. He explained the methods by which he would be able to paralyze the national unity of the United States and the power of resistance on this country…He said the cleavages in the population could be widened to disunite the country.”
“We have to paralyze the will and national unity of these and other countries,” Hitler said. “The great issue was to liberate the world from the poison of democracy, with its degenerating doctrine of liberty and equality”.
One
of the worst dictators of the 21st Century was paying attention. Putin
has Trump as his weapon to accomplish what Hitler could not.

By now, we all know that Kamala made a really wise-ass crack comment to a person in the crowd at a Wisconsin rally who shouted “JESUS IS LORD. CHRIST IS KING”. You can say to each his own on her response, but check out the version Steve Colbert played during is monologue. Notice they captioned the Heckler as saying “LIAR, LIAR” INSTEAD OF “JESUS IS LORD”. Clearly they did this as to potentially avoid any Christians who are still baffled enough to vote for Democrats, or from being offended. This is just another example of the media lying to cover or create a false narrative. I don’t think Democrats care if they are being lied to anymore, just like CBS did in the Kamala interview. .
I’d wonder if she (Kamala) would hold the same standard to all other groups such as the BLM, or the LGBTQ ?
PC,
I take it you concur with the points I made?
Did you know American Nazis claimed to be Christians? Did you know Hitler banned abortion? Did you know Jesus never even mentioned abortion?
Trump is no Christian, and if you think he is, you're in a cult.
Who knew what the hecklers were shouting? Only those close enough.
Naturally the fascists at FOX® welcomed them.
“After she talked about overturning Roe v. Wade and Donald Trump, I yelled out to the crowd ‘abortion is a sacrament to Satan,’” Polaske told Fox News.
Polaske said there was another 10 seconds before Polaske and his friend began shouting “Christ is king” and “Jesus is lord.”
Those idiots acted like they were in a mega-church. They were rudely interrupting, and Kamala made a perfect response.
I bet you didn’t know children are far more likely to be sexually molested by Trump supporting clergy than by drag queens. There is where you'll find your “sacraments to Satan”.
Does that even bother you?
Did you know American Nazis claimed to be Christians? Did you know Hitler banned abortion? Did you know Jesus never even mentioned abortion?
Do YOU know that the entire Biosphere thinks that you are a Freaking Idiot, and a Shameful American? Well WAKE UP YOU LITTLE PUTZ, YOU ARE!
Does that even bother you?
WHAT BOTHERS ME, ARE PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT KISS THE ASS OF PEOPLE LIKE KAMALA HARRIS, AND THAT CLOWN WHO IS RUNNING WITH HER FOR THE VP OF THIS COUNTRY, WE HAVE BEEN FUCKED UP ENOUGH FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS WITH THAT OTHER ZOMBIE AND NOW YOU PROGRESSIVE ASSHOLES WANT ANOTHER 4 YEARS WITH THOSE 2 DUMB IDIOTS.
O&R and PC,
My goodness! You two are indeed in quite an emotional tizzy! Who needs facts when your FEELINGS are hurt, amirite?
O&R,
I'm surprised to learn the "entire Biosphere" has an opinion of me! Thanks for that. LOL!
PC,
I see you're NOT bothered by clergy molesting children.
Is this because Jesus never mentioned child abuse? We know he never mentioned abortion.
Being a "good Christian" certainly has its privileges, doesn't it? As long as you care more for embryos than living breathing children, you're good with that.
It's up to the people now.
Sam,
Yes, the people will decide, unless Trump loses. Then the fascists will try again to overthrow the election.
Why? Because they are AFRAID of a multiracial democracy and will embrace Trump’s and other authoritarian white nationalists’ lies
I debunked some of Darrell's typical MAGA lies at your blog, but he can’t see the truth from under the dark shroud of white nationalist propaganda.
Inflation IS down, no matter how much he and Trump cry about it.
There was no "10% to the Big Guy". Even frickin FOX admitted it, as I have SHOWN.
What about that “big guy” email?
https://time.com/6254861/hunter-biden-laptop-investigations-charges/
Data purportedly from a laptop that allegedly belonged to Hunter Biden included a May 2017 email from one of his business partners laying out how percentages of equity from a proposed venture with a Chinese energy company could be divided. One line of that email asks the question, “10 held by H for the big guy?” Hunter Biden’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski, who was one of Donald Trump’s guests for a presidential debate in 2020, told Fox News that he believed “H” stood for Hunter and “the big guy” was Joe Biden. Beyond that, Fox News also reported that there was no evidence that any part of the business deals with the Chinese entities went to Joe Biden. It is also worth pointing out that in 2017, Joe Biden was no longer Vice President and was nearly two years away from announcing his candidacy for President.
Darrell claims without evidence, “improvement in home ownership especially by minorities that occurred under Trump”.
https://www.economist.com/united-states/2021/05/08/american-home-ownership-rises?utm_medium=cpc.adword.pd&utm_source=google&ppccampaignID=17210591673&ppcadID=&utm_campaign=a.22brand_pmax&utm_content=conversion.direct-response.anonymous&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwg-24BhB_EiwA1ZOx8pWzP1aySVWNSUTsSXD1qTnmXeHx5ZsoYiAjN2l_YUXkOROFplP7FxoCreEQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
“American home-ownership rises”
After years of decline, American home-ownership is rising
May 8th 2021
DURING THE PANDEMIC America’s housing market has behaved oddly. Prices have increased rapidly, even as the economy fell off a cliff, defying predictions. In contrast with the last recession, few people have defaulted on their mortgages. A less-noticed trend is that the home-ownership rate has jumped (see chart). Part of the apparent increase, especially the enormous rise in the second quarter of 2020, is a statistical mirage: the pandemic made it hard to collect data, meaning that home-owners were oversampled in the surveys. Yet there is little doubt that a genuine surge in home-ownership is under way.
Darrell can't even admit Trump is a convicted felon and indicted criminal. He won't look at the evidence because all he BELEIVES is pro-Trump propaganda. And it shows.
I show facts and Darrell ignores the documented verifiable truth. Like Trump LOST, LIES, and criminally tried to overturn the election. This is typical of the authoritarian personality.
One more example:
There are no "leftist brownshirts", but there ARE his seditionist white nationalist Proud Boys and Oath Keeper allies. So he MUST lie and project.
I won’t even address his outright neo-fascist lie about “genocidal terrorists on the Left”, except to say he’s nuts. Delusional. Way out of the bounds of reality and soaked with a neo-Nazi level of hatred.
These deluded, gullible, and extremist BELIEFS are how a republic falls.
When fascism comes to America it will be welcomed by duped and frightened white men.
This Year In 2024, we have a Hand Picked, Hand Selected candidate ( who by the way is Pretty Damn Stupid) may I add who did NOT even win a single primary, so tell me Smart Guy, How is that DEMOCRACY? Please explain it if you can, because us Conservatives are nothing but a Stupid "Cult" and we can't seem to figure that one out.
The Democratic / Socialist “Trump is Hitler” script is an incestuous second cousin to the “Weird” thing that Democrats/ socialists milked for a for a few days but couldn’t let go of.
They’re so desperate that they look for these idiotic, slogans to hurl in a desperate plea to defend their corrupted character and failed governance. And that dingbat Camala Hairliss is the Poster Child for Name Calling.
Hi, PC,
Stupid is what stupid says.
Kamala was on every primary ballot with Biden. Joe named her to take his place. Democrats had the opportunity to challenge her at the convention, as was custom, but none did.
She was enthusiastically embraced by her party as their candidate.
Why does this bother you?
Oh, you think SHE is the stupid one? LOL. You poor dear. Maybe you should try reading sources that are not kissing Trump's ass 24/7?
But that takes curiosity. Stupid people lack that.
O&R,
We see you're at the bottom rung of the low-information voter ladder.
You don't seem to know Trump's VP pick once compared him to Hitler.
You also don't know, or don't care to know, that Trump has been FALSELY calling Kamala a "radical left, Marxist, fascist communist" all along.
So you accuse her of what your malevolent mendacious messiah has been doing.
Smart and literate people know this is called "projection".
And look at YOU, falsely name-calling Democrats "socialists".
I suppose nobody has ever pointed out your ignorance before, so thank you for the opportunity.
So, I still have to wonder, what made you believe the "entire Biosphere thinks" that I am "a Freaking Idiot, and a Shameful American"?
I shouldn't expect an answer, should I? Questions seem to fry the under-nourished and exercise-deprived neurons between your ears.
But thanks for your, um, "thoughts".
President Biden is bad, but Kackling Kamala Harris is infinitely worse.
So what’s the Bottom Line?
In My Humble Opinion, Bottom lineKamal Harris is and has always been a lazy, low-IQ individual propelled along by her sexual relations with powerful Men and her convenient intersectionality as a Woman of “Indian/Jamaican” descent. Kamala is and always has been a habitual liar, lacking of any decency and empathy.
Cackling Kamala definitely lacks the character and intelligence to become the President of the United States, and her Vice Presidential choice, Tim Walz, is abysmal. It is almost as if Barack Obama chose Biden as a nonthreatening running mate, Biden chose Harris as a form of impeachment insurance, and now Harris has selected Tim Walz a Clown who belongs in a Circus.
Pete,
You're full of personal insults but can't produce ONE verifiable fact that supports your low-information accusations. Typical MAGA fascist hate.
The hilarious kicker is you say she "lacks the character" to be president. Is this because she "just turned black"? Or is it because she isn't a convicted felon and indicted criminal? Is it because she had sex with a man separated from his wife for 10 years? Clearly grabbing women's genitals shows far more "character to become the president", amirite?
All you've done is frame yourself as an ignorant hateful bigot, and a "poorly educated" dupe that Trump "loves".
That's the Bottom Line from a non-bigoted, informed, and rational perspective.
Came out in force, didn't they Dave?
TB3,
Bless their delicate hearts.
Evidently their feelings are too hurt for them to even read the posts. All they know is I said things they FEEL are not sufficiently reverent and loyal to their beloved malevolent mendacious messiah.
Perhaps they're comforted by the notion that God will reward them for their faith in dear leader and patriotic defense of the man sent by Jesus to save America from the heathen commies and swarthy enemies within.
After all, character matters to them.
I wish I understood why some Americans, if they are Americans, gaslight themselves into believing the reality they've constructed for themselves and hating their country and countrymen to the extent that they do. It must be exhausting for them.
TB3,
Their hate and lies are certainly exhausting for the rest of us.
I think it energizes them. They are fanatics who get an adrenaline boost from the primitive fear center of their brains. Scans show the conservative/authoritarian brain has an enlarged and overactive amygdala than in normal emotionally stable people.
Along with that neurological triggering and feedback they FEEL a fevered sense of purpose and belonging that is lacking in their miserable unthinking existence.
W. B. Yeats saw it long ago in his poem "The Second Coming".
"The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity."
Taking my inspiration from him, I wrote an updated version of his theme.
Slouching Towards Bethlehem
Dulled and lulled by lying leaders and platitudes
Numbing us all and clouding our thoughts with
Monotonous tired clichés and trivial drivel
When mendacity ascends, something worse is sure to follow
Decency and reason are soon cast aside
Deceit, blame, anger and hate are unleashed
And together they rage across the land
Distorted vision darkens souls with bitter resentment
And a stand for truth draws wrath from the believers of lies
