Duking It Out In Des Moines: Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley Go Head-To-Head
But the real action was off-stage as Donald Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy and Chris Christie made themselves heard …

In the end, Nikki and DeSantis will, like other Republicans before them, crawl on their hands and knees and beg Trump to forgive them. Republicans with backbone and integrity have already been kicked out of the party or left because they could not stomach what had become of the GOP. Christy and Liz Cheney saw what happens to Republicans with backbone in the age of Trump. Now there is nothing left but the MAGA cult who are all spineless cowards led by a man who thinks a President should be allowed to kill and imprison his political opponents; and do anything he wants to anyone. He argued that very point in court. They do not care about this country. None of them. It’s all about power and money.
Unbelievably, Trump does not hide any of this, and the Republican voters are no better. They think Trump will do horrible things to minorities, non-Christians, gays, and other marginalized groups; and they are OK with that. Kill them all would be fine with them. It’s all about victimization and hate of those they blame for their not being where they want to be in life, and Trump loves nothing more than people who hate. They are so easily manipulated.
I pray God will spare the nation from this neo-fascist movement.
Don’t worry, once again we’ll help the Democrats with another nationwide Blue Tsunami and a landslide defeat to Trump.
We’ll probably give the Dems the Senate and House too!
Speaking of what Trump argued in court, do you think at any point in that hearing it occurred to the brain-addled old fart, that his attorney was arguing that Biden could order the Air Force to shoot down Trump’s plane and as long as 26 Democratic Senators refused to convict him in an impeachment hearing, he’s good to go. For that matter, with the Republicans holding only a two-vote majority in the house; with a couple of other incidents, there may not be an impeachment at all. Hmmm.
Actually, it’s 34 Democratic Senators, but I get your point. President Biden, I would like to thank you for considering this important opportunity to serve the people of this great nation in our time of need with your opponent’s blessing.
I’m not here to waive flags for Trump, but your lefties really need to learn how to properly use your political slurs accurately. The quintessential core attributes of fascism are the coupling of centralized government with the major industries (i.e., big corporate business, labor parties, and the financial industry) so that they work in a controlled fashion to carry out the dictates and priorities of the State. Corporate propaganda at the behest of the State was also a major component. Fascism absolutely abhors a financially and socially independent middle class that is free to pursue their own priorities and happiness, and an upper class that simply acts on customary market motivators and not the dictates of the State. Those who don’t sing from the State’s music sheet so to speak get marginalized, harassed, and even thrown in jail. [GEE, now where have we been seeing that crap going on???] It is a historic fact that FDR and Mussulini, the father of fascism, had a penpal bromance and Mussolini absolutely gushed over what FDR was doing via the federal government in the 1930s and in fact right up to the brink of WWII. In fact, it got so thick between the two that FDR began to realize that it was not a good look for him on the domestic front and he had to ask El Duce to tell his Italian press to cool their jets on all the fanboy new coverage. Yeah, so while there probably is some argument to be made that the US went through a fascist period from about 1931 to the late 1950 that spanned both parties, the Democrat Party has long been the more “O.G.” fascist party with perhaps the exception of the merely inept Carter administration. So if you’re gonna hurl turds at MAGA, at least get your facts straight.
How can you not see that everything you said applies to Trump and the Republican Party? They are not interested in a middle class free to pursue their priorities. Trump wants a Russian-style Oligarchy where a few super-rich people run all the large industries and Trump is the dictator keeping them in power and getting a cut of everything while he and the rich guys steal everything in the country. Trump is already trotting out the old the press is the enemy of the people. They are lying to you. You can only trust me. Vote for me and I will make the Mexicans, the Muslims, the gays, the Jews , the lazy minorities, who are holding you down go away. We will kill your enemies. Hell Trump is using words directly from Hitler. Trump is clearly a fascist dictator wannabe.
The Democratic party has always been the only party interested in anything but how to benefit the mega-rich and billionaires. Every time the Republicans are in power, the middle class gets poorer and the rich get richer. They don’t even try to hide it. They just dupe the middle-class MAGA types into thinking they are being screwed by everyone except the people who are really screwing them.
For those who still think Trump is not a Dictator in waiting, over the weekend he said if he was elected he would change the constitution so that he would not be required to leave office in four years. When he was President, he commented on how great it was that China made XI President for life. He said we need that in the US. He is trying to make that dream come true, along with the right to kill anyone who opposes him.
