We won't know a thing what's going on. WE cannot wait until TFG gets his people in place. I don't know what to do. Our Generals gott see what i'm seeing. Holy fuck!!

(57,314 posts)Putin was a young KGB agent when Russia broke apart and he blamed the US.
He vowed revenge and he got it.
And he vowed to be the sole global superpower and he is on track for that too.
bluestarone
(18,220 posts)I just gotta hope the Generals that are there RIGHT NOW, are meeting with Joe. THIS can't wait. I just feel like SCREAMING. I see this so clear!
Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)But it is 100% certain that the generals are meeting and talking.
Though they have to be careful or will be reported to dear leader.
Just like in China and Russia.

Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)Mike Flynn's brother was on duty that day and took calls for help and turned them all down.
The Army lied and said he was not involved but then had to walk back that lie when confronted
with confirmation.
Then the Army promotes him to a higher rank of general and gives him a plum job as
head of the army in the Pacific in Honolulu. So that tells you how the Army feels?
Yes. I think there are pro Trump generals in the US military.

......and president shithead will help them.

UNDONE by THE ENEMY WITHIN - Trump and his anti-democracy collaborators - with the assistance of Putin himself.
Khrushchev SAID they would bury us.
Who knew 'Americans' would deliver the fatal blow?
Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)First seduce and flip an entire US political party, greedy and corrupt US politicians.
Then get them to turn the country over to Russia.
This is the same plan Xi has for Taiwan.
When he invades Taiwan, it won't be an invasion but a civil war.
bluestarone
(18,220 posts)What makes me happy is very few Dems got caught up in pooty's plan.
Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)We know two Dem senators flipped right on cue for Putin/McConnell.
They are no longer Dems.

(92,665 posts)Our laws and norms against us and we LET them do it.
I think some groundbreaking ugliness is coming in the near future.
Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)Turned all of our good points into bad points.
Oh yes, this is just the beginning.
It is going to get much uglier.

Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)Their job is to make Trump as rich and powerful as possible.
In return they can do some grifting and leave office much wealthier than when they arrived.
Dem4life1234
(1,521 posts)They are colluding with these rogue nations to destroy us for grifting purposes.
Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)Putin helps steal the election.
GOP hands the country over to Putin.
Destroys the military, hands over all national intelligence, and decimates the federal government.
GOP strips the US down to the studs money wise.
ForgedCrank
(2,190 posts)completely different.
The cracks are already starting to show after only a few days.
John Thune was just elected to replace McConnell as senate leader. This will be the first thorn in Trumps side, and there will be many more to follow. It appears GOP Republicans aren't any more fond of Trump now than they were last time.
BannonsLiver
(17,967 posts)Like with Gaetz, there are quite a few republicans who cant stand him.
bluestarone
(18,220 posts)I say your 100% wrong. The pressure will be to great for Thune Mark my word/. They will NOT let Thune stop their plan. (even if someone (on their side) has to kill thune) It's way past time to stop.
radius777
(3,814 posts)All he had to do was come in and appoint people who had some type of institutional cred, but would do most (but not all) of what Maga wanted anyway.
Instead he's appointing the likes of Gaetz, Gabbard etc - who are out and out freaks that are likely to meet opposition from the GOP itself.
He is where is by constantly stressing the system, and he is going to be 10 times more emboldened this time than the last time.
I have fully expected he will come in this or even hotter to just plow through and establish dominance on day one.
Irish_Dem
(57,314 posts)We shall see how far they will go to save their own skins or to save the country.
bluestarone
(18,220 posts)THAT would be a start. Then figure this out.. Executive order Musk REMOVED from all duties.
ForgedCrank
(2,190 posts)we need another big money entity running government. This has been one of the things that is actually bothering me. I'm sick of money running things.

(18,220 posts)From any decisions pertaining to all satillites. (if possible is all i'm saying.) I don't want him able to do any shutting down of any one that's protcting OUR COUNTRY.

(72,473 posts)The coup is complete. We are Germany in 1933 and Hindenburg has just made
Adolf Hitler Chancellor because he will play nice. Trump is already working on
firing any Generals or top brass who isnt loyal to him and promised to be a dictator
from day one.
And they are going to let all the January 6th shits go to.

(34,051 posts)Instead of laws. For fuck sake, you cant work at Arbys without a criminal background check. Who knew being President was a felon-friendly job?
Our biggest current mistake is the Democrats following the norms while the republicans are getting ready to steamroll the laws.
I know there isnt anything Biden can do but goddammit quit acting like you arent handing a bus load of kids to a drunk driver on a suicide mission. He should be talking to those of us in the country who know what the fuck is happening and at least giving us some advice on what we need to do to protect ourselves and our families.

(4,325 posts)and I say that with the utmost sadness. You and I have no power. We were always told the ballot box was our power. Well, that's to be taken away. And, I stand convinced, it was taken away from us with this election, itself. Unless those in power push something we're sunk. And frankly, I think most of them are too afraid of what trump would do to them if they opened their mouths or tried to initiate any action.
Anyone remember the one congresscritter some years back who refused to recognize the inauguration of the candidate? I want to think it was Bush they were protesting, specifically because it was SCOTUS who put him in and not the people. It was a female. ONE lone female. Anyone else remember what I'm thinking of? Anyone thinking we'd have anyone willing to stand up for our country and do it this year? I wish I did.
