Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

That fits the GOP to a T, so id say yes
This is why ~~people~~ I make fun of Lemmy. I never ~~gone~~ go outside ~~their~~ MY political bubble.
FTFY
Trump literally said he'd jail his political oppnents. You'd have to glue your eyes and ears shut to not see that one.
How so? Because Donald Trump has been indicted for his role on Jan 6? Or is it the boxes full of classified documents?
Is this what you are referring to?
That's bcz everyone is trying to figure out how to block you and/or report your account for being a troll.
Here's someone up the thread who spells it out concisely: https://lemmy.world/comment/6357252
It was described 6 comments above yours.
Pretty easy to find examples of each of those points in the MAGA movement.
And all of them, in Trump.
Make america great again…. Dump the chump.
"They're poisoning the blood"
"Id only be dictator for one day"
"When you see the other side chopping off heads, waterboarding doesn't sound very severe"
Would you like more? That took me about 30 seconds.
Does grab em by the pussy ring any bells?
Then you should probably stop replying to people.
Have you heard of Google?

^New account created to defend fascists. Please ignore.
There's a post right above this one asking about the benefits of totalitarianism. Seems they're out en force now
You'll do anything but read the ~~four~~ vast number of links provided.
The first link is literally about Trump quoting Hitler and the history of that quote.

Common speech from Trump. If you don't realize it by now you're complicit. Period.
Go away sealion.
Trump has now literally said he is going to be a dictator, said that he wants to get rid of vermin, meaning anyone not a Republican, and is also very concerned about the purity of the blood of the nation.
Are you just amazingly ignorant, or the first overt right wing troll from r/thedonald that I have encountered on lemmy?
EDIT: oh god read your other comments, obvious troll is obvious holy shit
Yeah, I’d say whatever party does all of that is probably fascist - or at the very least, on its way to being fascist.
Oh yeah - in fact, Democrats also do a lot of stuff the GOP does. However, I’ll support whatever party does see how batshit insane the idea of becoming a corpofascist state is, because unfortunately voting in the US has become “vote against what you don’t like” instead of “vote for what you want”.
In truth, I wouldn’t be surprised if the US does become a corpofascist state in our lifetimes - we tend to forget that Democrats are center-right while GOP is full-on right-wing, hence why Hillary was chosen instead of Bernie for the Democratic candidate.
yep, to the letter.
America First, yes. Trump's favorite.
Right, like using a fake elector scheme to enthrone Trump as unelected dictator, presumably for life. It's their plan A.
Like taxing the middle class and putting kids in cages?
Lol.
