Despite what Trump thinks the insurrection act doesn't allow troops to do anything illegal that police can't do today.
I'm sure he will instruct them to break the law though

Just practicing for the deployment of tear gas on voting lines in the 2026 midterm. That should suppress voter turnout just fine

I mean he's not a fortune teller. He's making optimistic assumptions off available information. Most folks on here make pessimistic assumptions based on the available information. The pessimists have been right so far for the most part though.

I appreciate your optimism. Even when it turns out to be wrong , we need to be optimistic.

Kavanaugh stops are going to be used for mass detainment of likely democratic voters on Election Day in 2026.

Any idea how do we get ahead of that?

Since a majority of Americans only vote with their wallets, maybe this will helps Dems win in the mid terms and save us from fascism.

People will eventually lose access to healthcare under fascism regardless, so glad it's happening before the mid terms.

That's why he likes tariffs. It's a tax that he gets to use it as his personal slush fund, without any congressional oversight.
In case anyone was wondering why he is so obsessed with tariffs that are unpopular with the general public.

How long did they hold you? Did they charge you with anything?

Might be a loyalty test to see if generals will obey what may be illegal orders but don't result in civilian harm. The military leader that pass the test can move to the next round of Trump's war on blue states.

Didn't realize "MAGA" meant "Make Argentina Great Again"
October 15, 2025 at 6:49 PM
That's plenty of detainment time to prevent someone from voting in 2026. I would plan to vote early or by mail if possible....

If the US military won't drone strike his political enemies, someone's got to do it

This guy will win the Nobel peace prize before Trump.

So the best bet of saving our democracy relies on either:
1. Epstein file release
2. One too many hamburgers
3. A man in an inflatable frog costume

I like our odds

Violent fighting is an absolute last resort. If that happens, the American way of life will be over for a generation.

Peaceful protest and resistance is the best path forward at this time.

Be a MLK or a Ghandi, not a Rambo.

He needs troops in cities to disrupt elections. He doesn't have a magic dictator wand to just suppress the vote and seize voting machines. He knows he needs to put the assets in place. You act like our fate is already sealed and it's not.

Trump's current goal is to disrupt the 2026 midterms using ICE and troops.
The current ICE crackdown is just a tool for him to instigate a response that he can crackdown on even harder.
We need to be willing to lose a few battles (ICE deportations) if it means winning the war (2026 midterm).

"Seize the voting machines" - Trump in 2020
October 8, 2025 at 6:22 PM
Democratic leaders need to get messaging out that the best way to oppose Trump is through organized peaceful protests. We shouldn't give him the street fight that he is craving. And anyone inciting street fights should be ostracized or treated as an anarchist bad actor not associated with Dems.
October 7, 2025 at 12:50 PM
Some good questions there! I'd like some answers on the how we will ensure trump doesn't use the national guard to steal the 2026 election. Shouldn't fund a government that will allow that to happen. Thats a hill we need to die on

Pass the short term funding that doesn't fund healthcare subsidies. Americans will blame trump when their premiums increase.

Don't pass a long term budget without constraints on trump authoritarian power grab. That's the hill we need to die on, not healthcare.
October 3, 2025 at 2:42 PM
They should keep the government shutdown for a few more days to continue to draw attention to the healthcare funding than agree to the continuing resolution. And then it will be more clear to all the dummies in America who was the cause of their healthcare premiums doubling.

Miller has obviously told Trump that he needs full control over DHS and DOJ in order to ensure Trump stays in power for life. Trump gleefully accepted this deal
