Trump’s former chief of staff says he fits ‘fascist’ definition and prefers ‘dictator approach’

Do you suppose calling liberals "Vermin" and "The enemy from within" is dehumanizing? All we're doing is responding in kind. This shit started with Trump the moment he walked down that escalator.
And Dem rhetoric precedes that. "Basket of deplorables" and "people clinging to their guns and bibles". What's funny is Obama went into Pennsylvania and had the balls to ask why we are so divided. Along with that, how many times do we hear that cult bullshit right here? Conservatives believe you are wrong; you believe conservatives are evil.

Another portion is easy to figure out, the establishment in DC has been wrong about Trump in multiple ways since 2015 and have been doubling down steadily ever since without examining how they are portraying half the country because they won't vote for the terrible Dem candidate. They would rather dehumanize half of America than admit they may be wrong about anything.
 
John Kelly is hardly a 'Never Trumper'. He never endorsed anyone. He worked for Trump as long as he could stand to. He was the Homeland Security secretary after being a 4-star general. The man has more cred than every Trump sycophant alive combined. He's a conservative and he has my respect.
Isn't it just amazing how many Never Trumpers worked for the man?
I just don't understand the cognitive dissonance to believe that they worked for him as one of the "best people" that Trump hired to work in his admin
and now they are Never Trumpers.
Like, that's a ****ing stupid stance to take.
 
well, yeah...he didn't create it, but it happened on his watch. The fact that it got out of control is indeed his fault.
You leftists are insufferable.

What should have been done differently? A NATIONAL shutdown? Seriously.

Get a grip.

Wouldn't 2 weeks of a national shut down been preferable to what happened? He refused to even acknowledge that there was any danger at all from Covid, much less acknowledge it was a pandemic until nearly 1 million people were dead. You damn right its his fault...btw, some of my family members died from Covid and a friend's daughter died...before you start to try t make lite of Covid and the dangers.
 
He wants his generals to be Nazi generals. He's a fascist, he's a Nazi.

There is no way around it. The GOP is a party of Nazism / fascism.
I love seeing this stuff. If the left is so barren of reasons to vote for Harris that they are down to claiming Trump will be Hitler, when he was already POTUS and was nothing like that, then things must be going very poorly for Harris.

At least they were allowed to look him in the eyes.

Are you claiming that a 2 week national shutdown (whatever THAT means) would have had a significantly different outcome? You are basing that claim on literally NOTHING.
He refused to even acknowledge that there was any danger at all from Covid,
Lie. If you are referencing the early days (jan-march 2020), there was a great deal of that going around. Very soon thereafter DJT most certainly DID acknowledge some danger.
much less acknowledge it was a pandemic until nearly 1 million people were dead.
Lie.
You damn right its his fault..
Whatever. Simply having a 2 week national shutdown (whatever that means) would have changed little to nothing.
.btw, some of my family members died from Covid and a friend's daughter died...before you start to try t make lite of Covid and the dangers.
Sorry about that, but many people know people who got really sick or died. Doesn't give your lies any credibility.

I wonder if after Trump wins, and NONE of these hyperbolic predictions come true, they will admit their error?
 
At least they were allowed to look him in the eyes.
sure but only if they were dear leadering him, as they went around the table taking turns at trying to out do each other in praising him.
Otherwise, not so much.
 
So the October surprises are that Kamala may not have worked at a McDonalds in 1982 and Trump is a fascist according to a NeverTrumper. Breaking news! I only heard that one 472,258 times before.

Unfortunately for Kelly I already voted. Thanks Dems for al the early voting and mass mailing ballots you put in place!
You were always gonna vote for trump. Hilter issues or not
 
Trump: Any jewish American who doesn't vote for me should have their head examined.

Also Trump: I wish I had some Generals like Hitler had.

Israelis broadly pick former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris as better for Israel's security and in turn favor Trump for the U.S. presidency, albeit with sharp political divisions, a national survey by Langer Research Associates and PORI (Public Opinion Research Israel) finds.

Fifty-eight percent of Israelis in the survey, conducted in September, said Trump would be better for Israel's security, vs. 20% for Harris. If they had a vote in the U.S. election, Israelis said they'd pick Trump over Harris by a similar 54%-24%, with the rest taking a pass.

Israelis' Views of U.S. Presidential Candidates.
Langer Reasearch/PORI poll
To a large degree, these attitudes follow the fault lines in Israeli politics. Among people who would support parties in the ruling coalition led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if an election in Israel were today, 88% picked Trump as better for Israel's security and 84% preferred him for the U.S. presidency -- results that may reflect tensions between Netanyahu's government and the Biden administration.
 
You have just explained the "democrat" party of today. Take a simple stroll around the forum....it's 90% or higher fascist/authoritarian OP's started with your definition in mind to a T. Except they are not republicans or supporters of Trump....they're all from liberal progressive democrats.

They have used propaganda so bad on these people it's almost sad.....raised up the "Orange Man Bad" and "MAGA" insurrectionists, made dart boards out of them and they are programmed to hate, destroy, dehumanize freely until it has become part of their paradigm.

It's a huge authoritarian mob ready to explode on a whim, easily manipulated, who are willing participants at all costs. They actually believe they stand and are saving democracy. The implications are staggering.

I must have missed Israelis being allowed to vote in a. US election.

during his campaign he was calling it a Democratic hoax....that was well after it started dude.
 

He wants his generals to be Nazi generals. He's a fascist, he's a Nazi.

At the risk of being like Kamala I totally stole the lines below. They are true observations though unlike the lies of Kelly.


Didn’t Hitler and the German Nazis:

- Support confiscating citizens guns?

- Support censoring citizens speech?

- Supporting going after their political enemies and citizens who didn’t agree with them with lawfare, jailing, long unwarranted jailing without trials and even wanting them dead in many cases?

- Support taking God out of schools and the public square?

- Support a large national centralized government who controlled all of the businesses, health care and private property?

- Support constant wars with others without Germany being attacked first?

- Was against a self governing Jewish state?

- Support aborting babies they deemed not worthy of living?

- Support regulating all of Germany’s energy and controlled by the state?

Weren’t the Nazis called the “National Socialists” party?

Something to think about

Since you guys haven't admitted all the terrible things Trump did in his first term as it is, I don't see how that's a serious question.

Overturned Roe vs Wade with his SCOTUS nominations was the biggest prediction, it came true.
Tax cuts for the rich/corporations...same as Reagan, same as GWB, always predicted, always occurs as the first major legislation.
Is this news to you?

1/6 capitol attack and the fake elector plot
indicted in two more big cases involving things related to his presidency/elections
Extorting Ukraine for election help
Cries of voter fraud/stop the steal were manufactured to support #1 above...
He did mishandle Covid obviously, he was clueless and ended up siding with right wing lunatics, ivermetcitn, anti-masking, etc., he's terrible in and outside a crisis
convicted criminal
etc.

Be serious. You're voting against Democrats...
