Marco Rubio first. POS birthright citizenship. Or let’s deport Ted Cruz. I’m sure Canada will love to have his head on a stick.
Both of them should honestly be real worried about that. If Trump gets to fully exercise that power, and they step out of line a little bit, either one of them would be exiled in no time.
Senator who?
They're white, different rules apply to them. Conservatism was always about "different rules for different people", fascism is just the bad cop to conservatism's good cop.
Way to show weakness, cadet bone spurs.
See we can't have you voting for people the president doesn't like.
I don't understand! How does trump have so much over reach and why aren't the courts stopping him! Why is our government intentionally creating a fascist dictator!
The president of the United States has always been a public servant who represents the people of our country. He's not a king among men the Office of the President should not have the ability to strip the citizenship of any individual that's what immigration courts are for!
Because more Americans are either fully on board and support this, or don't give enough of a shit to care compared to those who oppose this behavior., and piss and moan every day about how "tHiS iS nOt wHo wE ArE"
Trump is literally America's spirit animal, he represents everything that America stands for: greed, ignorance, hate, racism, bigotry, misogyny, corruption, and deceit. Trump is not an outlier, he is America's mirror.

Probably because that demented walking corpse was picked intentionally as an avatar. He represents a group of people in power. Without Trump they'd probably find some other one. But he's too convenient.
In this specific case? We've spent the last two decades watching overly broad anti terrorism laws get passed under the implicit agreement they wouldn't be abused. Then comes Trump. Americans have been asleep at the wheel since the 1970's. That's part of why right wing rhetoric keeps getting more extreme. They need to keep their voting base engaged. Most people don't want anything to do with politics. If that doesn't change then no amount of reform will prevent us from voting ourselves out of a democracy.
because the people who rabidly defend the second amendment don't give a shit, and approve of his racist oligarch bullshit
Trump has started small, piece by piece, bit by bit. He's gotten away with everything else. So why wouldn't he get away with this?
And the people isn't doing anything about it. So why would he stop? Maybe americans should take a note from Ukraine's book. You protest outside the capitol and you don't go home until you get what you want.
For sheer size of the US, it can be exceedingly difficult to get all the way to DC. If you can't fly and have to drive for whatever reason, financial or otherwise, it's a 39 hour drive going from LA in California to DC. One way. With absolutely no time accounted for bathroom breaks, food, or even sleep. It's like a three day drive each way. That's basically a worst case scenario, but also, a ton of people live on the west coast, so it's not exactly an uncommon one. Unfortunately, the sheer geographical scale of the US makes it very difficult for people to amass specifically in DC.
You're 100% right, though, that anyone who can do it should do it.
Because the entire group, all the leaders, are pedo's. they have all been to that island, Now the island is America.
the opposition cares more about their job/permanent meal ticket and lobbying money than actually opposing, these are problems for peasants like you and me, not chuck schumer and tammy baldwin.
Oh boy, get ready for mass protest in NYC.
Guess I need to be getting ready for dumbass libs to say. "It's still not fascism".
At some point, some country will need to send a task force to El Salvador to liberate people from the concentration camp there.
Yeah, see, you are already dreaming of that other American thing.
They are terrified.
Use paper ballots only.
Andy Ogles shows his support for “terrorism” by suggesting someone he doesn't like should have his life upended, stripped of citizenship, and permanently removed from him home.
Can we send Ogles to Alligator Auschwitz?
I mean NYC doesn’t fuck around, it’ll be interesting if they try to fuck with Mamdani. I’m too busy to protest usually but if they try to lay a finger on him I’d be at city hall human shielding his ass in 15 mins flat
If deporting him turns out not to work, perhaps admitting to psychiatry because of Trump Derangement Syndrom would?
This is a sad possibility and if it happens we need to take action and be in the streets and outside the White House.
