Elon Musk bankrolled one-quarter of a BILLION dollars to the Trump campaign. A campaign littered with propaganda and talk of fascism.
This was not a fair and free election! Trump interfered with this election, just like he did with the other two. He was just sneakier about it this time. They say the third time is a charm, and it worked, didn’t it?
This isn’t the first revolution where Americans fought for our freedom and democracy!
Moving from Democracy into Fascism
“Limited government”. Where the government limits your freedom and comes into your bedroom. To me, limited government means the government stays the hell out of my life and lets me enjoy my freedoms.
Leading up to this last election, Americans were buffaloed, scammed and fed misinformation. “If you say it enough, the people will believe it.” This is one of Trump’s favorite truths. If he said the Biden Administration was trashing this county enough times, people would believe him. AND THEY DID!
We believed him, thinking he could improve our lives. All along, his main goal was to avoid prison and gain power, tearing down the foundations that make America the #1 country in the world.
This is the way bullies operate. They use smoke and mirrors to distract, ensuring their true actions go unnoticed. This type of behavior is characteristic of bullies, and more importantly, it is exactly what happens when one ascends to power as a dictator.
The cabinet picks are a joke.
A tyrant doesn’t care who is in office with him or he’d pick people with experience and character. We judge a person by the people they hang out with. Trump is like King Midas, except his power is not turning everything into gold, but to shit. Good people will not risk their careers and reputation for him. So, he hands us child molesters, spies and drug addicts.
The man is a traitor, a rapist, a fraudster and a convicted felon – 35 times. Presidential candidates are required to pass a background check! Never mind, we know all about his criminal behaviors. He associates with the dark side of humanity, and he’s bringing them to the White House. Along with all his billionaire friends. This is a joke to him.
My take on limited government:
Fascism. Anarchy. Citizen suppression. Government takeover. Police state. Abolish the Constitution. Abolish Democracy. People living in fear of what will happen to them. Which neighbor or loved one will be the next one found guilty for something they didn’t do? There is no “court of law.” No “rule of law.” Justice is one-sided. Evidence is not required to convict.
How do I know this? I’ve lived in such a country for the past 13 years. My family, my property, house and all, were transported overnight into this other world that I just described.
Where is this “country,” you ask. Right here, in small town America. As of the elections, the local government is now 100% Freedom Caucus. It took ten years to infiltrate our community, but they made it. This the town where cops walk into your house and shoot you dead for no reason. A place where they whisk you off your deck on a wonderful fourth of July and take you to jail because your neighbor said you “flipped him off.” (even though you did nothing of the kind)
My neighbors are staunch MAGA. They used their power with the cops and the courts to keep me under their control. I am on an island amidst a sea of hate. Surrounded on three sides, they watch my every move.
I live under the roof of fascism. Censored, shut down, retaliated against if I spoke out. They kill my animals, destroy my property. They call the cops and complain that I’m destroying THEIR property, breaching THEIR peace. The next thing I know, here come law enforcement, most of the time bearing a ticket. No proof required.
Open the prison doors and let all the inmates out.
A convicted felon cannot get a good job, rent a house, or do what most American’s do – even after they’ve served their time. Thrown out onto the streets with the clothes they went into prison with, and maybe a little money in their pocket, and no where to go.
First things first. Find a homeless shelter.
A sentence doesn’t last for 5, 10, 20 years, it lasts for a lifetime. Forty percent of those incarcerated and released are homeless in less than two years. Their lives are ruined. We don’t offer them a hand up post incarceration. They are on their own. Three days in jail will change your life forever. Falsely accused and wrongly convicted most definitely ruins your life!
And yet.
And yet. We are giving this man the top job in the world, a salary, a big white house to live in, and access to the world’s top secrets. He’s proven many times he is not fit for the job. He is not qualified, and he is not competent.
This is America? Or this is what America has become? Are you willing to let your freedoms go without a fight? Once lost, you may never get your freedom back. This is not the America I came from.
The Romanians recently annulled their election because the candidate was hooked with the Russians. The South Koreans just impeached their prime minister for abuse of power. France has an unsettled government. The Syrian government just collapsed. And now the people in Canada are asking their prime minister to resign.
The world is in a turmoil, and we are contributing to it. People from other countries are standing up against their tyrant rules. We can’t do the same?
Unprecedented actions in unprecedented times.
We can disqualify an elected official before taking office.
Special elections are run all the time. Several congressional seats are waiting for special elections. We can’t do the same with the president? Let Joe Biden stay in office until the dust settles and we have a new qualified leader.
You think it would be the Republicans job to get him out, or the Justice Department, but that is in a normal world. It will be easier to do it now than try to oust him out of office later. You know that day will come.
The only way this will happen if the people insist that he not become President. A revolution of sorts. A nonviolent revolution.
America overcame Hitler, the Japanese – two of the most brutal enemies we’ve faced. We beat the English, the Spanish and the French.
And yet.
Here we are. Seemingly placidly accepting the rise of fascism, taking it in our stride, believing the lies that control fascism.
January 20, 2025, will be a day of massive weeping and depression nationwide. It will be a day when American lives will change forever. Is that what you want to see? “We the people “cried over the election results and will shed great tears of sorrow at the inauguration.
Americans are very worried. For good reason.
Stop feeding the bully. Stop giving him the attention he is so addicted to. This is not making America “great.”
What signals are you sending to our youth? It’s okay to break the law with no repercussions??
What are we showing the world?
I’d rather see riots in the streets than lose my freedom, yet again, to another tyrant.
Freedom talks. Billionaires walk.
Team Awesome thanks you.
