(Full title: ‘Violently authoritarian’: Alarm over
Trump’s threat to use military against Americans)
***
And here it is, kids, in black and white...so, Old Timer
and other DJTers, gird your loins and get ready for the
most righteous pushback you've ever imagined on your
Fascist Agenda nightmare bullshit... You can take your
whining about "sleepy Joe" and "hoping to repair the
damage he's caused" and shove it sideways, this country
will not pay for your fears with its soul...
***
Donald Trump over the weekend repeatedly said he wants to
use the U.S. military against Americans who oppose him,
called his critics “the enemy from within,” and declared
they are more dangerous than America’s greatest foreign
adversaries, including Russia, China and North Korea.
“I always say we have the outside enemy, so you can say
China, you can say Russia, you can say, Kim Jung-Un,”
Trump told supporters at an Aurora, Colorado rally on
Friday.
But, he added as the audience cheered, “It’s the enemy
from within, all the scum that we have to deal with. that
hate our country. That’s a bigger enemy than China and
Russia.”
On Sunday, Trump told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo
of his desire to use armed forces against Americans on
Election Day.
“I think the bigger problem is the people from within, we
have some very bad people, we have some sick people,
radical left lunatics. And I think they’re the — and it
should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by
National Guard, or if really necessary by the military.”

Slams Ex-President as ‘Most Dangerous Person’
Pointing to those remarks, constitutional law scholar
Laurence Tribe says, “Just think what this means for the
2028 election if Trump & Vance are in control as of
January 20, 2025.”
In both events Trump had been talking about undocumented
immigrants before switching his target to American
citizens.
AFP called his remarks against U.S. citizens a “sinister
election-related threat.” Rolling Stone called it a “a
fascist plan to deploy military forces against U.S.
citizens who oppose him on election day.” HuffPost
described his remarks as “echoing similar language used
by Nazis,” and HuffPost legal/justice reporter Brandi
Buchman warned the “level of danger that people face if
he is ever allowed near office again cannot be
understated.” The New Republic declared Trump went “Full
Dictator.”
“Trump as President and Commander in Chief would seek to
wage war on the American people,” warned historian and
professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat, an expert on fascism and
authoritarianism. She adds, “our armed forces could have
a new authoritarian role: domestic repression. ‘Handling’
the Leader’s enemies=violence.”
Attorney and former federal and state prosecutor Eric
Lisann responded, writing: “Trump has already requested
military equipment and protection for him now, as a mere
candidate. He will gut the military of its finest
leaders, many of whom have identified the historic threat
he poses to the country, and turn it into his personal
guard.”
The popular historian and professor Heather Cox
Richardson called Trump’s attack on his political
opponents, “the full leap to authoritarianism.”
“Trump’s full-throated embrace of Nazi ‘race science’ and
fascism is deadly dangerous,” she added, noting his
“campaign seems to be deliberately pushing the
comparisons to historic American fascism by announcing
that Trump will hold a rally at New York City’s Madison
Square Garden on October 27, an echo of a February 1939
rally held there by American Nazis in honor of President
George Washington’s birthday.”

And historian Steven A. Woodbridge wrote: “Pointing to
the ‘enemy within’ is a classic strategy used by those
with authoritarian tendencies many times in the past & it
would appear nothing has changed. This man is a clear
threat to democracy.”
Journalist Ahmed Baba warned, “Trump’s rhetoric is
growing more violently authoritarian. His migrant fear-
mongering is increasingly racist and now he’s once again
saying he’ll deploy the military against people he
disagrees with. Trump’s insane authoritarianism is the
most important story of this election.”

it does feel a bit like 1939, on the verge of the next world war. the
question is will it start in the middle east or ukraine. i suppose with russia
aligning themselves with iran either is possible

I'm talking about the rise of fascism..namely, Trump.
Trump who would encourage it, only this time taking
American on the wrong side.
That's who you are apparently backing.

What comes to mind is here we are in 2024 and a rabid dog is foaming at
the mouth spewing hate and needs to be put down. While millions of
Americans have been infected by his vile crap and are sick enough
themselves that they will need to be restricted in their ability to influence
society until they no longer pose a threat to the rest of us.
What comes to mind, Nev, is we are in a crisis that if not dealt with
seriously can destroy our way of life, can destroy all life on Earth. That to
fall prey to the sickness that has already infected the entire GOP, could
set us back to the dark ages. Fuck man, this shit can send us back to
living in caves.
And you think we’re living in some far away long forgotten? That’s why
we’re where we are, because folks are willing to live in the past rather
than be responsible for themselves in the here and now.
Can you imagine, Nev, if folks were actually responsible for themselves?
Only dealt in the truth..

“What comes to mind is here we are in 2024 and a rabid dog is foaming at

we all see it, but that’s a little extreme. give a good mental health
professional a chance and you may find you aren’t so overwhelmed with
hate and you may be able to exert some self control. all that hate and
constantly foaming at the mouth isn’t healthy and life is short, don’t waste
it

Old Timer...maybe if you didn't belong to a party that
literally *feeds upon hatred as its lifeblood* (hatred of
nonWhites, hatred toward those of alternate sexuality,
hatred of the poor, hatred of the disabled, hatred of
women, hatred of that gnarly, pesky Constitution and Bill
of Rights that still promises aspiration toward equal
rights for All...), your pretending as if you *have some
kind of ground to stand on* in preaching about hatred to
ao *might have a sliver of ground* to stand on...
But as it stands you're sounding pretty lame there, old
man, parroting that *hate* word at us as if it isn't the
very lifeblood of your very own GOP anymore...

Just like you, SpinMan, to try and style relentless
objection to Fascism as inciting civil war...
...lolololololol...
But hey...that's what we know to expect from you, whenever
you slide out through the cracks...

The garden variety German lost the father, the sons,
even grandfather to war. Women suffered horribly from
rapes, privation, and loss of community.
Listening to trumplican radio, this language is never
mentioned unless directed against the enemies of God
and country, and the listeners are expected to blindly
follow as the Germans over the cliffs of war.
This is the logical progression of what Eisenhower
warned: an ignorant population groomed only for manning
weapons and following orders.

I can just hear the dark perverse rhetoric now...though
I'm loathe to put the words I hear through my
fingers...things on the order of: "How willing are YOU to
PROVE YOUR LOYALTY? What service will YOU render to those
guaranteeing your SAFETY? Your FAMILY'S SAFETY??? Your
BIRTHRIGHT in HEAVEN? GIVE UP those you know oppose our
BELOVED KING DJT!!! And there are people who'd stand in
line, just to do so...... My own family would give me up
in a heartbeat...
...oof...now I need a shower...
What's worse, ya think? Speaking Its Name so clearly, or
Not? hm...
