    You’re on the internet. Censoring yourself makes you look childish. Just cuss. Also, it’s not fear mongering. The GOP has announced their intentions if they win.

        So go fill your gaping ignorant armchair with another short floppy bamboo pole

        That’s just uncalled for

        If you read the article, the author is not saying Trump winning the general election is an inevitability, but that him winning the nomination is inevitable and so is his rise to dictatorship if he wins the general. He never says Trump winning the general is guaranteed, and allows phrases that part as, “he could win the general”. All of those things are true baring unforseen circumstances.

        Also, honestly that sentence would have been a lot funnier not censored.

          Right, and instead of presenting the facts in an entertaining and sincere way, he writes a deliberately false and misleading title and article that bolsters conservatives and is intended to scare liberals.

          Unproductive, fear-mongering b*******.

      Please point to where the GOP has said they intend on installing a literal dictatorship. Please remember how many executive orders President Biden signed in his first 90 days in office as well.

        Notice no one has actually answered the question, nor have they addressed the EO’s. How do you rule like a dictator in a representative republic? Sign more EO’s than any other pres had prior, totally wiping out everything your predecessor did. Last I checked nothing’s been proven that “TRUMP” caused, ordered, or even suggested your little so called “insurrection”. Saying something doesn’t make it true. But keep trying.

        Do you just forget that Trump almost succeeded in an insurrection and is now allowed to run as president again? How are you able to do that?

                He instigated an insurrection and tried to overturn legal election results. How specific do you need to go?

                  how exactly did he do such a thing? has he been convicted of such a thing? has such a thing been proven? or are you just biased in your opinion?

                    how exactly did he do such a thing?

                    By talking to his TDS supporters, inciting them to try an insurrection, long before January 6th 2021, but especially on that day. By pressuring election authorities to overturn legal results. By directly demanding Mike Pence to not ratify the results, and claiming the he even could do such a thing.

                    Why the justice system of USA hasn’t placed him in federal prison yet is anyone’s guess. Perhaps he’ll be there some day, but I will be less surprised if he escapes justice altogether.

                    If your biased opinion refuses to acknowledge these facts (which don’t care about your feelings!), I don’t think we should talk any more.
