    Secondary reminder that the man literally demonizing his opponents has declared it to be criminal to criticise him or his cronies by accurately describing them with politically descriptive nouns or adjectives.

    This doesn’t just go away with the next midterms people, there ain’t gonna be no next midterms, not meaningfully anyway, unless people actually do something to stop and depose this fucking madman.

      Which is why I remind people at every opportunity that he really, sincerely, is unhinged.

      This goes way beyond political rhetoric and hyperbole - he’s bludgeoningly obviously profoundly mentally ill.

      Much is unsurprisingly made of the march to fascism under his administration, but the thing is that that’s really being accomplished by the people around him. He isn’t leading the country to fascism or to any other thing. He’s just sitting there in the Oval Office, surrounded by bright shinies, doing whatever his warped perceptions and stunted emotions compel him to do, And it’s just convenient for the fascists that the natural instincts of a fragile, delusional, sociopathic egomaniac, toxic narcissist and craven bully with the emotional development of a toddler lend themselves so well to fascism.
