Republicans have no intention of abiding by the law, listening to voters, or actually governing. With them, it's all about the racism, cruelty, and lawlessness. Never let them have power again...

Keep in mind, they're doing this while protecting multiple child rapists within their own party.

I genuinely hope we have mass executions one day for the scumbags taking us for a ride.

ICE just needs to scan his face with the Racistron 2000 app and it overrides his birth certificate, haven't you heard?

[–] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 47 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

No. It’s not. Constitutionally anyway. But… considering the Terrorist Party is above all law it seems….

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

the constitution only matters when the supreme court actually upholds the constitution.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 19 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Don’t they need a functioning government for that?

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

great news, enough dems caved and the senate passed a funding bill, without any of the demands the dems were making in the beginning.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 15 points 12 hours ago

As shown by SCROTUS recently, no. They will just call it an emergency measure and shove it through.

Anything is possible in a dictatorship

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Now that's what AI was made for

[–] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 18 points 10 hours ago

There is no such thing as good AI slop.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 12 points 10 hours ago

Nope. Not even this. Still useless crap. MS Paint would've been better.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 6 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

It got his hands too big, but not bad.

[–] tooclose104@lemmy.ca 12 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

This took so long to modify via Gemini but I FTFY, all credit to someone else but it's a glorious edit.

Donald "Baby Hands" Trump

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Now make his tie comically long

[–] ngdev@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)
[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

yeah he buttoned his tie into his fauxniform. it's already appropriately bad

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 34 points 15 hours ago

I love how scared they are of him.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 145 points 18 hours ago

It is possible, obviously. It might not be legal, but we all know that doesn’t stop the Trump admin.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 105 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Well, we still haven't seen Trump's birth certificate, soo

[–] KonalaKoala@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

For all we know, Trump's birth certificate states he was born in Moscow, Russia and his birth records state he was raised by the Putin family.

Melania escaped from a Chinese lab conducting unethical research on human-plastic hybridization, that's why they won't produce the birth certificate

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 4 hours ago

i thought it was a human-megalania hybrid, the ancient giant moniter lizard from australia.

A great American city is on the precipice of being run by a communist who has publicly embraced a terroristic ideology,” Representative Andy Ogles from the Republican party said

What the fuck are these cretins on?

Is anyone left from Hitler a "communist" now?

[–] grue@lemmy.world 28 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Is anyone left from Hitler a "communist" now?

Literally and without exaggeration, yes, that's what they truly believe.

What do you mean "now?" Americans have had this habit of calling anyone whose politics they disapprove of a "communist" or "socialist" for a very long time.

[–] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 23 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

The best part is they can't even define communism or socialism.

Of course it's possible. We cannot allow it within our society, and it's certainly illegal to do so. The only thing that stops the people who uphold the law from ignoring the law is if people actually stand up to it, since clearly our separation of powers has failed us.

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 34 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Just come out and say it you fucking cowards: you are simply racist and have hatred towards Palestinians.

I will dislike you more, but at least you are honest in this regard.

[–] Bristlecone@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago

I would actually dislike them less if they would just fucking own up to their own bigot shit. They love being Schrodinger's racists, though

[–] boaratio@lemmy.world 16 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

No. But also, they'll get away with it.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 23 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

No they won't, New York has it's own political capital in the form of a massive city that centralizes international trade and politics, and a tight-knight community around that culture. This is why his election is such a huge deal.

Whoever in the administration is still talking about this is just babbling nonsense for their base so they can look like they're big strong tough guys who are fighting the eeeevil brown people communists.

If they actually made a plan to deport the fucking mayor of NEW YORK it would get shot down by every court in the land. They know this, everyone with a brain knows this, so that should tell you who this narrative is being written for.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 7 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

New York is resilient if nothing else. It is a dirty, grimy, hazardous city and you have to learn to look out for each other if you want to survive. If they come after the Zo at this point they will disturb the entire wasp's nest. The people supporting the fascists are the same ones who are too scared to set foot in NYC on a nicer day

I say this as a proud New Yorker, but also because fuck fascists

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 60 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Given the turnout and hype around the election, a riot would ensue if the losers took away citizenship to deprive the winner of their winnings.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

it got both the gop and old GUARD dems(gop-lite) scared. remember HOCHUL said she wont support him, until she was facing re-election, or gillibrand who went on a racist tirade.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 49 points 18 hours ago (5 children)

Giving them the excuse they crave to put NYC into a full on police state

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 4 hours ago

isnt it sort of a police city, since NYPD is the largest police force in the us.

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 36 points 17 hours ago (3 children)

I’m not sure there are enough people on their side to hold a city like New York.

[–] demizerone@lemmy.world 18 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I would fight for New York and I live in California. The fascists are failing.

Possible? Absolutely.

Likely? I dont think so. Stripping a person of citizenship because they are of the opposing party feels like a line in the sand. How do you defend that? At that point its over for America. Like pack it up and every person who is not a straight white christian should be looking to get the fuck out

[–] survirtual@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

They are already abducting and "deporting" US citizens. Your line in the sand has been crossed. Just because they haven't done it yet to one of your parasocial relationship chosen-ones doesn't mean it isn't already happening.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 33 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Keep in mind we are dealing with the same administration that is throwing a tantrum over being told to feed starving children in their own country.

The GOP and Republicans are a terrorist organization

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 17 points 16 hours ago

My limited understanding say this is actual true.

This definition is straight from the FBI website.
