Which is why I believe that they'll happily remove him when he is no longer useful to them.
I love your paranoia.
True. It is also why we should be ignoring Trump's garbled rants and concentrating on the history and plans of those advisors and backers instead. My short exploration so far indicates a veritable battalion of glittery-eyed Goeths just itching for the opportunity to launch pogroms against invented enemies.
It'll be the same rambling stream of consciousness ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ as all of his other speeches.
My prediction is that Trump will make his standard the marxist-communist-fascist-loony-liberal-Democrats-and-criminal-immigrants-have-nearly-destroyed-America-and-only-I-can-fix-it speech at his rally on Sunday and then do a 180 and claim that he will unite all Americans on Monday.
Doesn't matter what he says. It will be garbled fascist nonsense and mean nothing. Less than nothing. He could be reciting the phone book backwards. Nevertheless, Fox and the talk-backs and the MAGAchuds will lap it up and try to make sense of it. Pareidolia for the right-wing morons.
I was in doubt about the „rebirth“ criterium. Or maybe it is so vague that any major change can be termed a rebirth. But I must admit that I know too little about Franco and Falangism.
He is useful as long as he is the only Messiah that can hold MAGA together. If he is incapacitated, can Vance command the same respect? In a dictatorship like Venezuela, an unknown vice-president has managed to take over the reigns and extend the power. Is Vance a Madura?
Same here, but reading though the wiki it looks like his regime took on most of the characteristics of fascism at first (including a sort of rebirth narrative) and then mutated over time, even restoring the monarchy by the end. Here is an excerpt on point:
I don't expect we'll actually see much of this, beyond vague threats to pull FCC licenses or lead MAGA boycotts.
Even deep red states occasionally elect a Democrat into local office or a Congressional seat, so never is a very strong claim. I wouldn't be surprised at extensions of common disenfranchisement tactics, e.g. ID laws which include gun licenses but not university issued cards.
I fully expect we will see more of this, as we did with Hunter Biden.
This is a gimme; Reagan did it, Bush did it, Trump did it last time.
I'm on the fence here. American voters favor mass deportation but would likely balk at footage of camps.
Nope; Chauvin wannabes will still face trial.
Probably not going to happen, in part because we won't see that much mass protest this time around.
At the federal level, no doubt.
Already underway.
No doubt we will see examples of this; happened last time around as well.

Belongs in REALLY funny jokes thread.
Well, Brothers Karamazov is too long, and Anna Karenina gives you cooties.
Quoting myself from a few days ago, I refer you all to what MAGA is trying to say about justifying the latest Trump ramblings.
