Putin May Have Been Wrong About Destroying America's Democracy.

[gab13by13]

Putin stated that if America fell into a dictatorship, democracies across the world would follow suit. It doesn't look that way to me.

The right wing candidate for prime minister in Canada was miles ahead of the leftist candidate, until the Krasnov factor took over and the left-leaning candidate won.

The right wing candidate for prime minister of Australia was also ahead of the leftist candidate until the Krasnov factor took over and the left-leaning candidate won. Votes are still being counted in Australia to determine the amount of control the leftist will hold in the government.

People around the world are looking at America and saying nope, that's not for me. People today are protesting in the streets against Orban in Hungary, they want democracy.

People around the world do not want to belong to the Russian, Chinese, North Korean club, just some Americans do. At least Krasnov is having an effect around the world that is turning people off from electing fascists. Wishing more Americans could wake up too.

Do Town Halls - Time Matters.

1. Everything drumpf touches, dies

Even the rightward fascist movement, hopefully

[Dem4life1970]

10. Yes this is what I cannot understand

Rick Wilson was right when he wrote "Everything Trump Touches Dies." Why anyone would want to emulate follow or be like that man is so far beyond my understanding. To be like him in any way shape or form is just utterly disgusting. He is one of the worst human beings to ever set foot on this planet.

[pnwest]

30. One of the worst humans...pure evil and profoundly stupid. Really bad combination.

The remaining cult members carry at least one if not both of these traits and they admire his cruelty to the "browns" and the poor.

[Irish_Dem]

2. But at least he destroyed the USA. Which has been his primary long term goal.

[gab13by13]

3. Yup,

I'm trying to find something positive. When Magats reinstall the Horse & Sparrow economic plan I guess working class and poor Americans should be happy with the plan to feed the horse more oats so that the sparrows have plenty to eat.

I'm still upset over Schumer's strategy to let Krasnov burn it all down and then win the next election. What will America look like come election time? Schumer was worried that Democrats would be blamed for a government shutdown so he allowed Krasnov to have more power. Congressional Magats are fine with what's happening, they don't have to take votes, they gave their power to Krasnov. Krasnov controls the purse strings Congress has been neutered.

The courts are ruling against Krasnov but how are they going to enforce their rulings?

Needed to take a stand back at the CR vote, all of the Democrativs House members were ready but the Timid 10 kneecapped them.

Once again we are hearing, GOTV, vote them out, give reasons why we lost the last election that we really didn't lose. I saw the statistics, saw the graphs, for the surge in same day voting for Krasnov, only in the battle ground states. We are supposed to hope the next election will be fair.

The time to fight is now. Do town halls, not random free for all town halls, do them with a subject matter like they did for fired government workers. Don't waste time on an insane 3rd impeachment.

[Irish_Dem]

4. Yes it has been a cluster-F all the way around.

It's up to we the people now.

But I agree, some of Putin's plan to make the world a fascist dictatorship is backfiring.

[calimary]

5. Great post. I like it a LOT!

Misery does love company.

Schumer’s approach may have worked, years ago, back when pretty much everybody was at least somewhat civil and prioritizing what’s best for the U.S. and not some wannabe-dominator’s personal bank account.

[OldBaldy1701E]

6. Sen. Schumer will be fine in four years. Most of the wealthy will be.

The rest?

[displacedvermoter]

29. Ditto the Obamas, the Clintons, the rest of them...

[LiberalArkie]

37. Schumer's plan to let the GOP show who they are would have

Worked if the D’s had not voted with the GOP on anything. Shutdown happens, but no departments dismantled, no firings, no DOGE, no incompetent dept heads.

7. Hear hear! Spot on Gab -- as usual.

[OMGWTF]

23. NFW did T💩p win all seven swing states. He cheated and bragged about it, before and after the election.

[Linda ladeewolf]

12. We will rebuild the US.

[Irish_Dem]

13. At great expense and some damage is long term or permanent.

But I hope we can build back better.
And prevent a future fascist take over.

[Linda ladeewolf]

16. Lessons can be very expensive.

We need to remake some laws too and add mechanisms for enforcement that work when corrupt presidents or regimes are elected!

[Irish_Dem]

17. Yes this will be a very steep and difficult learning curve.

Yes we learned the hard way that the US gov't is entirely held together with spit and a prayer.
And it is all just a giant honor code. With no honor, it all falls apart.

[OMGWTF]

24. Shitler has proven that laws don't matter. He just does whatever he wants because even though the SCOTUS

told him to bring Garcia home from the El Salvadorian concentration camp, he still has not. T💩p is a walking 5'10" 287# (according to his NY arrest records) middle finger.

[Marcuse]

20. "Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice. Moderation in pursuit of justice is no virtue."

(Yeah, I know.)

33. In Your Heart..You Know Even a Stopped Clock is Right Twice-A-Day

39. In your brain you know he's nuts.

[Wounded Bear]

8. The trend over the last 20 years or so has been rightward around the world...

Hopefully, the Canada and Australia elections are the start of a trend reversing that.

I think Britain has been having similar vibes, post Brexit.

[OMGWTF]

25. I saw where most Brits wish they were still part of the EU. I always thought Brexit was Putin's doing.

Anything to weaken the Western Alliance so he can reassemble and grow the USSR. Why do these weird, greedy, sociopathic men like T💩p, Putin, and ilk want to "rule the world?" Is it to get back at people for taunting them as children? Who the hell broke them so badly they have no conscience about what they are doing? They have everything but will never be satisfied. They all need big time therapy.

[Marcuse]

40. They want to rule the world because they are weird, greedy, sociopathic men.

[NNadir]

9. Good, and hopeful point.

[love_katz]

11. I wish we could ship all the MAGAts to the dictatorships that they so admire.

One -way tickets to Russia, North Korea, Hungary, etc. Or Mars, with Muskrat, if they would prefer. But, the caveot would be that they can't come back.
I mean, why would they want to stay in any democratic country, since the poor babies think they are so picked on and have been treated so unfairly?
I can dream, right? Buh bye to the whole rotten lot of them.

[OMGWTF]

26. I wish the "Rapture" was a real thing and these annoying Talibangelical jerkholes would leave us TF alone.

Spending enternity with these fumducks is not the flex they think it is. Hell, ta tha naw!!

[PatSeg]

14. Oops, looks like Putin's grand plan to rule the world

has backfired on him.

[Pesky1]

15. We need a wartime consigliere!!!

[Martin68]

18. I keep saying this, and I will continue to say it until it changes. The US is not a dictatorship. Trump is trying his

best to establish a dictatorship with him at the helm, but he's not even close. Clue #1: we can express these ideas on DU without being arrested. Obviously ya'll who are expressing the opinion that we are already living under a dictatorship have never lived under a dictatorship. Please get real.

[OMGWTF]

27. I worked with a woman from the former Czechosolvakia who was once gifted a subscription to

National Geographic. It used to come to her mailbox with pieces of the magazine cut out. Oy!

[Martin68]

38. I dictatorship affects every aspect of life every day. It always uses a secret police and encourages neighbors and

family to inform on each other. What actually happens in many cases is that people with grudges falsely accuse their neighbors of crimes to get them jailed (or worse).

[c-rational]

19. K&R, Do Town Halls.

[BaronChocula]

21. I thought the same thing this morning

I hope Victor Orban is shitting his pants. More so than usual.

[Blue Owl]

22. WAKE UP AMERICA!

Especially the 90 million who didn’t vote. I hope this is the cold shower you need!

[applegrove]

28. I heard Macron of France is thinking of holding an election

to win more seats.

[Clouds Passing]

31. Germany declared AFT a fascist organization.

I’m hoping Germany bans them from the government, that should be their next step.

[ananda]

32. Wow, great unintended consequences.

It's nice to see that other parts of the world have not
fallen into the Trump cult.

[live love laugh]

34. I'm hoping that the others stay "woke" and that we can join them.

[mdbl]

35. Still pretty weird how russia went from communist to right-wing dicator

I guess money/capitalism is more powerful than anything else.

[malaise]
