In this speech, Trump explains that the radical left is “invading” our country, and that he and his administration are going to “take them out very quickly.”
He seems to be talking about civil war. If so, this will be much different than the Union vs. the Confederacy, where the enemies lived in different parts of the country and the soldiers wore different colored uniforms.
Here, to take an example, we have high school faculties that are a blend of both liberals and conservatives. If you’re stupid enough to believe that the liberals are invading the United States and need to be removed, you have a real challenge on your hands, not only legally, but logistically as well.
Now, I suppose he could simply have the military deploy machine guns and wipe out each one of the seven million men, women, and children in protests like “No Kings” protesters. Or maybe just round them up and deport them. He has no regard for the Constitution and rule of law anyway, so maybe this isn’t as far-fetched as it seems.
One thing that Trump doesn’t seem to be considering, though, is that “the military” is run by generals and admirals who are sane and intelligent people, who have sworn an oath would prevent them to committing atrocities at the behest of a psychotic in the White House.
Wow. Life in America gets more absurd with each passing day.
It’s weird that no one talks about this anymore (did we talk about it at all?), but how likely is it that the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in which he was supposedly hit in the ear by a round from an AR-15 didn’t leave a scar? Not even a scratch?
Why can’t some teenage cub reporter follow this down and show that the likelihood of this actually happening is like rolling a six on a die 1000 times in a row?
According to Trump’s head of Homeland Security, we, the American people, have two choices: stay silent against ICE agents’ grossly illegal and sometimes lethal violence against innocent people, or face “more bloodshed.”
This is what fascism looks like.
Yet, too many Americans are children or grandchildren of our brave ancestors who risked (or gave) their lives to defeat Hitler. I’m betting against Trump and the despicable people he’s nominated to top positions in his administration.
While human civilization is far from perfect, most of the world’s people are kind and decent. Sure, there are rogue countries led by the most horrific dictators imaginable, yet all but one of the developed nations on Earth support their citizens with universal healthcare.
Of all the countries that played in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the United States is the only one that lets its people go through bankruptcies and die of treatable diseases because they can’t afford health insurance.
Civil?
