Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

He's gonna end up like Mussolini lol
My vote is for Gaddafi
I'm hoping for the Ceausescu treatment, honestly
I really really hope for a Hitler style ending.
Feeling the enemies close in as all your plans so far simply evaporated, surrounded, no way out, except for biting onto the barrel of a gun...
Too "on his own terms" for my liking.
Agreed.
I’d love to see him deported to one of these awful prisons they’ve been sending people to die at.
Is it though?
The options at that point are: the coward's way out, or taking responsibility while seeing everything you "built", be destroyed.
it's not really "on his own terms", is it?
addy also took a good chunk of his cabinet and cronies with him over the years.
But the problem with that is the sheer amount of violence required to get that point. I am... not that optimistic that we have a peaceful transition of power. But I would still rather not a full blown fourth reich along the way.
We're really being squeezed into a bad spot where there are no good options. Do nothing, and the dictatorship continues to kill thousands or millions. Fight back, and many will end up dead on both sides. Those 2A "no step on snek" folks sure are quiet...
By the way, this has been Stephen Miller's plan all along, which is also why they're stopping SNAP, so they can further provoke a starving population into violence and use it as a pretense to deploy full-force military into blue cities.
Then they would further suppress any opposition by claiming terrorists (already at this step, but they would increase it even more), and bam suddenly we'd be in a Putin-esque hellscape.
Yeah. I am deeply terrified of what happens next week (let alone as we get closer to thanksgiving travel and the like) when SNAP et al shut down. People are going to be hungry and people are already VERY armed. And the most impulsively violent crowd tends to be the ones who actually believe "its the democrats behind the shutdown" and... yeah.
It's obvious but I didn't even consider the starving poor MAGA folks will think they aren't being fed because of Democrats, and then go after them. Ya know because they are generally more violent and deeply angry in their cores.
But of course, they'll be reported in the news as "violent 'anteefa' extremists", despite their beat-up lifted truck sporting "Trump 2028" bumper stickers and confederate flags.
Excellent gif choice.
One can dream
Yes, and it'll be a shame that future generations won't get the chance to defile his remains repeatedly.
I kind of like the idea of using trees as headstones.
In trump's case, we can strap one of these to it.
Can we just... not? I don't want to fight any wars over this buffoon. Now Stephen Miller I feel differently about, but once you get rid of the root of the problem (propaganda from Fox, Newsmax, OAN, TPUSA) everything else will fall into line.
The root of the problem goes back further: we never finished the job of Reconstruction. Most of them will die of old age before changing.
From your lips to gods ear
At least we can use that dumb Arc de Trump plaza for something....
