• Fascism! It's All Around Us

    From Ja-Son-Wan-Kenobi Has the High Grou@21:1/5 to All on Fri Oct 6 14:59:57 2023
    Including the Republican Party, and Republican candidates including the Front Runner who is named Donald J. Trump.

    *****

    After an eventful week for utterly dysfunctional House Republicans, I’ll look at the growing derangement of the MAGA cult leader and GOP front-runner — and those who enable him. I’ll also pick the pol of the week and share a guilty pleasure. A
    scheduling note: I will be away on Oct. 13, but the newsletter will return on Oct. 20. (Do check out the other newsletters from my Post colleagues.)

    What caught my eye
    I have pulled no punches in identifying four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump as a neo-fascist or in calling out the failure of his party and the mainstream media to act decisively in defense of democracy. In case you had any doubt, consider:
    Trump suggested a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff deserves execution. He has threatened to indict President Biden. And in an utterly disturbing, profanity-laced speech last week in California, he said we should shoot robbers in the back. (He
    also bizarrely accused Beverly Hills residents of smelling because they are supposedly forced to take short showers.)

    The California Republican crowd’s laughs and applause as Trump mocked former House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband (the victim of a break-in and life-threatening beating) confirmed that Trump brings out his followers’ cruelest, most despicable
    traits. Former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, in her 2016 campaign for president, called these MAGA foot soldiers “deplorables.” Worse, they are accessories in a dangerous right-wing authoritarian movement.

    No Republican official or presidential opponent denounced his rant; no major newspaper or news broadcast suggested that his mental soundness rather than Biden’s age should be a top issue in the race.

    The California speech was followed by a slurred, incoherent speech Sunday in Iowa debating whether it is better to be electrocuted or eaten by a shark. His unhinged rant on Monday directed at New York Judge Arthur Engoron underscored his derangement.

    And with former chief of staff John Kelly finally going on the record, we have confirmation of a dangerous narcissist for whom honor and truth are nothing but buzzwords.

    This should not come as a shock. Trump routinely displays neo-fascist behavior, which his followers ape: promoting violence, shredding social mores, displaying toxic masculinity, spouting irrational conspiracy theories and mind-numbing lies, and
    targeting disfavored groups.

    The MAGA movement rolls on, full steam ahead — not just because of his delirious followers but because of mass moral failure. Hordes of Republican officials still promise to support him if he is the nominee. They join in attacking prosecutors and
    reiterating the lie that he won in 2020. Legions of major media voices strain to avoid “taking sides.” (Declaring winners and losers in debates among uncompetitive Republicans. Saying things like “Well, Biden has issues, too. After all, people
    think we are in a recession.”) The result is virtually no scrutiny is applied to Trump’s moral, mental and emotional state.

    Including the Republican Party, and Republican candidates including the Front Runner who is named Donald J. Trump.

    *****

    After an eventful week for utterly dysfunctional House Republicans, I?ll look at the growing derangement of the MAGA cult leader and GOP front-runner ? and those who enable him. I?ll also pick the pol of the week and share a guilty pleasure.
    A scheduling note: I will be away on Oct. 13, but the newsletter will return on Oct. 20. (Do check out the other newsletters from my Post colleagues.)

    What caught my eye
    I have pulled no punches in identifying four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump as a neo-fascist or in calling out the failure of his party and the mainstream media to act decisively in defense of democracy. In case you had any
    doubt, consider: Trump suggested a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff deserves execution. He has threatened to indict President Biden. And in an utterly disturbing, profanity-laced speech last week in California,
    he
    said
    we
    should shoot robbers in the back. (He also bizarrely accused Beverly Hills residents of smelling because they are supposedly forced to take short showers.)

    The California Republican crowd?s laughs and applause as Trump mocked former House speaker Nancy Pelosi?s husband (the victim of a break-in and life-threatening beating) confirmed that Trump brings out his followers? cruelest, most
    despicable traits. Former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, in her 2016 campaign for president, called these MAGA foot soldiers ?deplorables.? Worse, they are accessories in a dangerous right-wing authoritarian movement.

    No Republican official or presidential opponent denounced his rant; no major newspaper or news broadcast suggested that his mental soundness rather than Biden?s age should be a top issue in the race.

    The California speech was followed by a slurred, incoherent speech Sunday in Iowa debating whether it is better to be electrocuted or eaten by a shark. His unhinged rant on Monday directed at New York Judge Arthur Engoron underscored his
    derangement.

    And with former chief of staff John Kelly finally going on the record, we have confirmation of a dangerous narcissist for whom honor and truth are nothing but buzzwords.

    This should not come as a shock. Trump routinely displays neo-fascist behavior, which his followers ape: promoting violence, shredding social mores, displaying toxic masculinity, spouting irrational conspiracy theories and mind-numbing lies,
    and targeting disfavored groups.

    The MAGA movement rolls on, full steam ahead ? not just because of his delirious followers but because of mass moral failure. Hordes of Republican officials still promise to support him if he is the nominee. They join in attacking
    prosecutors and reiterating the lie that he won in 2020. Legions of major media voices strain to avoid ?taking sides.? (Declaring winners and losers in debates among uncompetitive Republicans. Saying things like ?Well, Biden has
    issues,
    too.
    After all, people think we are in a recession.?) The result is virtually no scrutiny is applied to Trump?s moral, mental and emotional state.

    You poor thing. Always crying about something. Show us on the doll where
    Trump hurt you.
    First show me where Hunter Biden touched you.

    In a letter dated October 5, 45 GOP representatives signed a letter noting they were "ashamed and embarrassed by what happened on the Floor this week," and that they "refuse to allow the eight members who abandoned and undermined our Conference to
    dictate every outcome in policy and personnel for the remainder of this Congress, including the upcoming selection of the Speaker of the House."

    Including the Republican Party, and Republican candidates including the Front Runner who is named Donald J. Trump.

    *****

    After an eventful week for utterly dysfunctional House Republicans, I?ll look at the growing derangement of the MAGA cult leader and GOP front-runner ? and those who enable him. I?ll also pick the pol of the week and share a guilty
    pleasure. A scheduling note: I will be away on Oct. 13, but the newsletter will return on Oct. 20. (Do check out the other newsletters from my Post colleagues.)

    What caught my eye
    I have pulled no punches in identifying four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump as a neo-fascist or in calling out the failure of his party and the mainstream media to act decisively in defense of democracy. In case you
    had any doubt, consider: Trump suggested a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff deserves execution. He has threatened to indict President Biden. And in an utterly disturbing, profanity-laced speech last week in
    California,
    he
    said
    we
    should shoot robbers in the back. (He also bizarrely accused Beverly Hills residents of smelling because they are supposedly forced to take short showers.)

    The California Republican crowd?s laughs and applause as Trump mocked former House speaker Nancy Pelosi?s husband (the victim of a break-in and life-threatening beating) confirmed that Trump brings out his followers? cruelest, most
    despicable traits. Former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, in her 2016 campaign for president, called these MAGA foot soldiers ?deplorables.? Worse, they are accessories in a dangerous right-wing authoritarian movement.

    No Republican official or presidential opponent denounced his rant; no major newspaper or news broadcast suggested that his mental soundness rather than Biden?s age should be a top issue in the race.

    The California speech was followed by a slurred, incoherent speech Sunday in Iowa debating whether it is better to be electrocuted or eaten by a shark. His unhinged rant on Monday directed at New York Judge Arthur Engoron
    underscored his derangement.

    And with former chief of staff John Kelly finally going on the record, we have confirmation of a dangerous narcissist for whom honor and truth are nothing but buzzwords.

    This should not come as a shock. Trump routinely displays neo-fascist behavior, which his followers ape: promoting violence, shredding social mores, displaying toxic masculinity, spouting irrational conspiracy theories and mind-
    numbing lies, and targeting disfavored groups.

    The MAGA movement rolls on, full steam ahead ? not just because of his delirious followers but because of mass moral failure. Hordes of Republican officials still promise to support him if he is the nominee. They join in attacking
    prosecutors and reiterating the lie that he won in 2020. Legions of major media voices strain to avoid ?taking sides.? (Declaring winners and losers in debates among uncompetitive Republicans. Saying things like ?Well,
    Biden
    has
    issues,
    too.
    After all, people think we are in a recession.?) The result is virtually no scrutiny is applied to Trump?s moral, mental and emotional state.

    You poor thing. Always crying about something. Show us on the doll where
    Trump hurt you.
    First show me where Hunter Biden touched you.
    BUTWHATABOUT!


    Biden is building the wall. The left is infighting and have got no one
    better than senile Joe to run.
    The LEFT is infighting??
    Really??

    Bubba you really do NOT get out much do you??
    I do instead of staring at the news all day like you.

    Yeah- you don't wanna do that. It will ruin everything your orange god told you you know.
    You also are following the blind. Enjoy your day.

    Sooooo......... pretty much "I know you are but what am I?" Golly gee wiz I guess you told me!
    But vision is clearing for some GOP. Not enough, but at least a few, unlike yourself, who are smart enough to be embarrassed.
    None of that made sense. There was no IKYABWAI either.

    In a letter dated October 5, 45 GOP representatives signed a letter noting they were "ashamed and embarrassed by what happened on the Floor this week," and that they "refuse to allow the eight members who abandoned and undermined our Conference to
    dictate every outcome in policy and personnel for the remainder of this Congress, including the upcoming selection of the Speaker of the House."
    So?

    ah yes..."SO?"

    When Skeeter has been kicked in the teeth, that's all he can ever say.

    You post some random bullshit that no one cares about and call victory
    when it get ignored? You are scraping bottom.

    It's brutal.
    I don't understand why he won't answer my question. Why does he hate America????

    I don't. But you leftie tards do. Just look around.
