A final response to the “Tell me why Trump is a fascist” by marisam7 on Reddit.

I’m pretty sure no sane human needs more information to vote for someone else and prevent the next dictatorship.

Again, how can people honestly think Hillary and him are the same.

And this doesn’t even include his statements of two days ago that he’s not going to commit to honoring the USA’s trade agreements and mutual defense treaties with other nations. The man is dangerous AF.

We’ve been saying this for over a year now.

What more is it going to take

The thing is, anti-Trump types are bringing facts to a flame war. 
“We’re tired of experts” isn’t just a Brexit sentiment. His supporters are also tired of experts, because of a growing anti-intellectual movement that believes in following your gut. Until we learn how to respond in kind, all the facts in the world objectively pointing out how terrible he is aren’t gonna matter.

so far during the RNC

itsstuckyinmyhead:

  1. Steve King claimed that white people have done more for civilization than non whites
  2. Melania Trump plagiarized a speech from Michelle Obama (that’s symbolic)
  3. Trump campaign denies that they plagiarized Michelle’s speech and cites a quote from my little pony 
  4. Alaska yells at Ryan Paul for miscounting their votes
  5. Milo gets his twitter account deleted for abuse right before his gaysfortrump event (haha #FuckMilo)
  6. Chris Christie lead a witch trail 
  7. Stephen Colbert took the microphone dressed as Caesar and claimed that he was starting the hungry for power games and then was escorted off stage but not before he said “I know i’m not supposed to be up here but let’s be honest neither is trump”
  8. RNC security tries to cover up a No Racism No Hate sign with an American flag (symbolic again)
  9. RNC got slammed when Ryan Paul took a selfie with interns, it was just a sea of white people and DNC responded with pictures of their interns who were more diverse 
  10. Donald Trump was announced with “we are the champions” playing which naturally pissed off Queen 
  11. the Internet lost it because  “We Are the Champions” is sung by Fred Mercury, a Bi man who died of AIDs in 1991 and Trump’s VP thinks HIV/AIDs funding should go to conversion therapy 
  12. Laura Ingraham did a Nazi salute for .5 seconds which could have been a mistake (hmmmm)
  13. Ted Cruz refused to endorse Trump and was booed off stage (fuck ted cruz though he’s worse than Trump but damn that took some balls)

honestly why is nobody talking about how someone attempted to assassinate trump yesterday

So it turns out that a lot of people didn’t know about this because the US media aren’t talking about the situation much at all, but there is some coverage here in the UK (I’m guessing this is because the man who attempted to assassinate him is British). What basically happened is a guy turned up to Donald Trump’s rally in Vegas the other day (I thought it was yesterday but it was actually Saturday) and attempted to steal a gun from a police officer to shoot Trump with, but ended up getting caught. When he was questioned the man say he was planning to kill Trump and had been planning to do so for about a year. if anyone wants to read more about it there’s an article here and here as well as a few others which can be found pretty easily online. 

Damn. 😦 Best of luck on the next attempt!

The thing that baffles me is he thought the easiest place to get a gun was to snatch one from a police officer. It’s like he had no clue what the US was like about guns. Nevada requires no licensing, no background checks, and is open carry. Like dude just go to Walmart. You can also pick up some refreshing snacks for the trip.

everyone is aware bernie is still running right. like he never dropped out. he is still here

in all seriousness i feel like those Hold Your Nose, Close Your Eyes, Bite Your Tongue and Vote For Hillary 2k16 posts are all good intentioned and i will probably be saying the same after the convention, but i don’t think people realize how damaging they can be RIGHT NOW, while he’s STILL IN THE RACE, when the core of his entire campaign is his supporters being enthusiastic / donating / volunteering / sharing information about him. he already has so much working against him in terms of biased media coverage, election fraud, etc., and seeing posts like that can be really demoralizing and make people give up on him when he needs them more than ever — i know bernie is a longshot but if anything, with trump officially being the official nominee now, we should be encouraging people 2 rally behind bernie even more and help ensure he has the most delegates he can possibly get going into the convention because he is a surefire way 2 stop trump, seeing as he has proven himself as a candidate who can gain the support of independents who are so critical for the general election

Not to mention, Hillz is headed for murky waters. X

2015 – Here are some gifs of Donald Trump being attacked by a bald eagle named Uncle Sam, literally the least patriotic thing that can happen to an American.

I’m reblogging this again because I finally realized why this is so funny to me, as a bird person.

In the first gif, what you’re seeing is a man who has zero idea how to handle a bird. That’s a heavy bird, and he’s got his arm stretched out as far as it will go in an attempt to keep the bird away from his face. What that does is create unstable footing for Uncle Sam. The handler is there trying to hold up Trump’s arm, but the bird has already realized it needs to leave or it will fall. In the first gif the bird is not attacking Trump- it is trying to get away from him so it doesn’t get hurt.

In the second gif, what we see is a bird that remembers what just happened and is blaming Trump for it. Uncle Sam sees Trump reach for its tether, and makes a lunge at Trump’s hand to keep him away. The bird /does not/ want to hang out with Trump because it has learned that Trump has no idea what he is doing.

Uncle Sam is rejecting Trump based on Trump’s proven inability to properly handle Uncle Sam. And that is both hilarious and beautiful.

Good bird.

Always reblog Uncle Sam telling Trump to fuck off

This is a better explanation of these gifs than I could have given!

Trump reveals how he would force Mexico to pay for border wall

In a two-page memo to The Washington Post, Trump outlined for the first time how he would seek to force Mexico to pay for his 1,000-mile border fence, which Trump has made a cornerstone of his presidential campaign and which has been repeatedly scoffed at by cureent and former Mexican leaders…

In the memo, Trump said he would threaten to change a rule under the USA Patriot Act antiterrorism law to cut off a portion of the funds sent to Mexico through money transfers, commonly known as remittances. The threat would be withdrawn if Mexico made “a one-time payment of $5-10 billion” to pay for the border wall, he wrote.

But Libertarians for Trump? 

Because libertarians should support an expansion of the Patriots Act?

Right? 

Completely fucking laughable how any libertarian could actually support Trump.

Trump is just as authoritative as any other politician running for president. 

Trump is definitely just as authoritarian as any other politician, but I fail to see how one government threatening another government would mean much to a libertarian.

Then you don’t quite get it well. Remittances (remesas in Spanish) is money that immigrants send to their impoverished families in Mexico and all other Central American countries. For many families it is their only source of income, for others a great help to their meager wages.

Trump is threatening the Mexican government by threatening innocent Mexicans that have done nothing but receive money earned by their relatives. It’s a threat against individuals. Of course it would concern libertarians. Any libertarian that only cares about their own government treating them well is a poor libertarian then. Ignoring the injustices one’s government commits against other peoples because it’s treating your government decently is a lot like conservatism to me.

@moralanarchism any libertarian that takes themselves seriously would only support Trump ironically. Since everyone claims that he would be disastrous for government then perhaps he is the best man for the presidency. Ironically, his health and tax proposals are the best from all other candidates; not that that excuses an endorsement but it’s just there as a fact.

If any libertarian thinks he will make America great again then they’re probably not a libertarian at all. But if any libertarian thinks he will finally drag the US to the ground then that’s a good excuse to “support” Trump.

So basically he is taking control of the mail, the banks and wiring of money capabilities but not to just Latin America – everywhere or they could send one place and then have it resent where they wanted it.  Gee that is a lot of control for what really is not a terrorist act – and by the way how often has government given up power once achieved? 

This is insane and anyone who still supports this man is a traitor to our country and what it stands for. 

I want to repeat that

This is insane and anyone who still supports this man is a traitor to our country and what it stands for.
