Is it still a coup d’état if you have already completely changed the government? This is more an effort to solidify the change.
This much was obvious.
I still think there will be a false flag blamed on Iran to cement the coup.
A rare question headline where the answer is yes.
Of course, but it will be pronounced "coop".
Now this is where the militias should come in. Station a few at every polling station with cameras and defensive weapons. trump may have resources (that he stole from you) but he is not more powerful than the people.
I again reiterate that it’s maddening reading articles about shit that has been clear and telegraphed for years.
I’m not a journalist or even particularly that smart, and I’ve been aware that this was always what he was gonna end up doing
Why there's a question mark in the headline?
The tankies should be happy he's emulating Russian elections.
Betteridge's law of headlines says that answer will be no.
However the answer is yes. Lumpty Trumpty is planning a coup.
If there is fraud what the hell are troops at a polling station gonna do
Intimidate voters so they stay away, unless they are part of the cult
derp
The pedophile rapist is going to win by force. Sorry to all the normal brained americans (not the MAGA sluts), but there are no path forward sadly
In the short term no. Facism is there to stay for the next decade at a minimum. Unlike the retards who thinks this is ending when he dies, I believe that it will be the beginning of something much worst.
Of course he is, but it's always important to remember: These parasites talk a good game, but they are virtuosically incompetent. They are ALWAYS bluffing, and whatever they do, will always fail.
Why is anyone surprised?
Oh, hows that mideast war going? Both of em
