Republican women voters delude themselves that their fascist movement will ensure their safety & well-being.

@Npars01 @Strandjunker Why wouldn't they? Most of those Congress critters are guilty of the exact same thing

@Strandjunker It is really shocking to me how many people seem to be going about things business as usual. Talking about "this might be a bad 4 years but the silver lining is that *next* time people will know better."

We'll be lucky if there is a next time.

Or "He wont be allowed to do X." Right who's going to stop him? He's been given immunity and the green light to assassinate people.

@coffeetest @Strandjunker who's going to stop him? hopefully his diet, or the dementia. Though the thought of Vance being in charge also gives me the fuckin' chills.
Show threadCoffeetestNov 26, 2024

@draeath @Strandjunker Oh yeah, that's a good point. I was predicting he would not make it to the election.

I don't know if we know what Vance would be without Trump at this point. I mean nothing good but what kinds of not good?

@Strandjunker I have a hard time believing that there are not a good amount of veterans that will allow all this to happen in the very country they fought for. Specially since he denigrates them. The next couple months will tell.

Any reaction to the infringement on one's rights to one's own body is an UNDER REACTION!

@Strandjunker This is a sobering truth. It's crucial to recognize the subtle erosion of rights and freedoms. Don't dismiss concerns as overreactions. Speak out, stay informed, and protect our liberties, no matter how small the steps may seem.
