This should alarm you.🚨

Via MeidasTouch

#Trump is now using 'Day One Dictator' as a campaign slogan.

It won't be long till he drops the "Day One" part.

PatriotTakes:

Right wing host at Trump rally: “How many people here support Day One Dictator?”

MAGA supporters raise their hands and cheer.

I think I'd rather have left that out, and just been specific about this particular lie, when - just possibly - some magans will realise what a disaster they will have brought upon themselves.

Show threadHugh Young-BishDec 19, 2023

@GottaLaff

But it's true. His lies are more and more non-stop, and projective, like "Joe Biden is a threat to democracy"!

I fear he (and the New Agers, and the Post-Modernists) have created a mindset, a zeitgeist even, where truth and reality don't matter, only getting what their clique wants.

Show threadMelissa BDec 16, 2023
@GottaLaff He has done this a lot - repeating unthinkable ideas/phrases over and over so they lose their shock value and become normalised, all while sounding like he's joking. Two things scare me: That for both him and Putin, him winning in 2024 is of existential importance, and that of the 9 or 10 MAGAs I know well - all well-educated white collar professionals - not one has turned their back on him.

Show threadSolarbird Dec 16, 2023

@GottaLaff Oh that's an easy rhetorical chain to slide, isn't it.

"Day One Dictator" as a nickname for Trump to "He'll be a Day One Dictator" to "He'll be a Dictator From Day One"

all while the MAGAts continue to cheer, starting out by cheering Trump in particular, then cheering dictatorship over the Republic in general.

So very easy.
