Anyone questioning General Kelly's assertations about Trump need to read this - several more people from the Trump administration back him up and say that his statements about Trump were 100% accurate - Trump is a fascist and a threat to democracy. www.politico.com/news/2024/10/25/never-trump-former-officials-back-kelly-warning-00185435Ex-Trump aides emerge to back Kelly’s harsh warningsWe have so many people corroborating what each is saying that this now has to be accepted as fact. These people aren't Democrats. These people aren't his political enemies - they are people who worked in his Administration! They know him, they worked for him, they heard what he said and saw what he did. Trump is a fascist. Not a good "Trump is a facist" argument based on the below definition: Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived ... However, Pelosi, Waters, and Clinton might be more aligned with being a Machiavellian Fascist? The team Trump has assembled with Gabbard, Vance, Kennedy, and Musk does not support any sort of subordination of individual interests or belief of a natural social hierarchy. No wars/Global Conflicts with US Support under Trump also blows up your argument since militarism is the key component of a facist. Sir, his own Cabinet members and staff members say he's a fascist. They aren't Democrats. They aren't his political enemies. You're dismissing good, honorable, honest people and acting like they're idiots. That's the attitude of a cult member, not someone capable of independent critical thought. |

In fact that’s what they do EVERY presidential campaign. Every GOP candidate from Reagan to Trump gets the “fascist nazi” branding by the Dem controlled media. This is usually because their own positions on the issues are so weak. Harris is now losing and this name calling campaign is a clear sign of desperation from the Dems. Even the celebrities they bring out parrot the same propaganda. Why any celebrity, whose careers are dependent upon their own popularity, would go out and deliberately piss off half the country is baffling and seemingly a poor business decision. Running on the important issues does seem a bit problematic. Economy- Fail (inflation and goods are through the roof) Immigration/Border- Fail (12-15 million illegal immigrants surging over our southern border) International policy- Fail (There are wars popping up everywhere) Consumer energy prices: Fail It’s time for the Democrats to learn a different tune. |

Newsflash - It isn't Democrats stating that Trump is a fascist. It's REPUBLICANS. Lots of them. Very well respected, honorable, honest Republicans, some military with a strong sense of honor. And they're all saying that Trump is a fascist. But, go ahead, disrespect Generals Kelly and Milley. That's fine. Your character (or lack thereof) shines through when you disparage them and question their honesty. Who has shown more honor and integrity in their lifetimes? Milley and Kelly, or Trump? |

A couple of things.
You said “It isn’t Democrats stating that Trump is a fascist. It’s REPUBLICANS.”
The Democrat Media are constantly calling Trump “Hitler”. It’s like a feedback loop on The View, Morning Joe, Maddow, PBS. Whoopie Goldberg can’t speak three sentences without rapping that bit of propaganda.
Even Kamala Harris can’t keep herself from playing the “Hitler Card.”

aztecmusicianInflation has been under 4% for over a year. It's been under 3% for several months. That's PHENOMENAL. That's right where we want it. The border isn't open. They still arrest, detain, and deport people crossing illegally. Just like under Trump, Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Reagan, etc. International conflicts? Putin planned his invasion of Ukraine while Trump was in office, assuming that Trump would support him. He modified his plans and went ahead anyway. Oops. The war he thought would take a week is now 2 1/2 years in. Hamas made a horrific attack in Israel last year, the worst terrorist attack in the world since September 11. How would you want US to react if we were attacked like that? Of course Israel fought back. The United States is not the boss of anyone. We can make suggestions, warn about consequences for actions we find unacceptable, but, in the end, Israel is the boss of Israel. And Trump would be telling Netanyahu to do whatever the hell he wanted in Palestine and Lebanon. The war would be worse with Trump supporting more extreme actions. Your arguments are all epic fails.

But, this what both sides do. It's expected. They'll rehash old news and bring it to the forefront right before an election. That's been going on forever. They'll bring up Trump's past statements, actions, etc, and they'll bring up Harris immigration issues, economy and inflation, etc..... Nothing new. |

Sheesh. You don't need to elaborate. I was referring to the constant propaganda that gets espoused by the OP, not meant to be a memorandum on how the news works. Especially unnecessary when you want to "both sides" as you always do. |

I'll friggin elaborate if I want to, bud. If you don't like it, don't comment on it. Both siding is absolutely necessary at times. You just don't like it when it validates anything from the side you don't like. Not a shock. Are you really that touchy/sensitive? Sheesh. Oh, wait, I know the answer to that. It's a resounding, yes!!! |

You're not saying anything groundbreaking, everyone knows that politics are politics and politicians do politician things. That was not the point I was making. The point is to combat misinformation and obvious propaganda with actual facts, things that *don't* need to be both sides'd. |

And, oh yes, you REALLY hate it when there's a scenario that's absolutely two sided, like the one I pointed out, because you want the sole focus to be on the side you hate. That's incredibly obvious This is your narcissism coming out, again. If you think your post that I responded to was ground breaking, or even slightly enlightening, then I have some beach front property for sale in Kansas for ya. Sheesh, again. |

Stop using "Sheesh..." It's not that serious. |

smith decides to pause the Trump charges and a judge agreed. These Jan. 6 charges from smith were political charges and election interference. What is sad is no one else here spoke out on this happening this week. Same goes for New York and Georgia to drop the Trump charges as well. After running a terrible court, judge merchan may be walking away 'without the stomach to jail a former president and president elect" from MSN News. Before criticizing this comment, this smith news was reported by Yahoo News, msnbc and others.
