How Early Did Trump’s 2020 Election Overturn Conspiracy Start?

Pulling off a coup while holding the office. Holding every lever of power. Every advantage.

How did it not work? How incompetent must you, and everybody in your orbit be-- for it NOT to work?

The left has gatekeepers: the Dem administration, leading pols and liberal-leaninng MSM outlets who will push back hard (in an almost excessively knee jerk manner) when they think left-leaning pols and activists have gone too far. The right has only enablers who are all competing against each other to be the prime cheerleader for increasingly radical and subversive ideas. Fox News made a few halfhearted attempts to rein in Mr. Trump when he was a primary candidate: and sometimes during his presidency, but soon gave up when it realized he had captured the MAGA base. There is now no place for the GOP to go but down.

Fuck that. Send in the Army Corps of Engineers to clear it, and if Texas tries any bullshit, have the 1st and 3rd Cavalry roll out of Ft. Cavazos to defend them.

Then start talking about relocating III Armored Corps and First Army West out of Texas entirely—something the Pentagon doesn’t need Congressional approval to do.

Along with Borowitz and The New Yorker, add these guys.

Did everyone miss that this is the same twisted logic DeSantis and his cronies are introducing in their black history curriculum? Many slaves learned valuable trades…while being held as property. I think we are hitting prime 1984 territory; the Party (GQP) defines truth for its followers.

The plot to make Trump preznit again began on November 9, 2016. The criminal conspiracy to make Trump preznit again may date back to Rudy’s efforts to stir up Russo-Ukrainian dirt on Hunter and Joe, but much more plausibly dates to the Chesebro electoral fraud scheme, which is somewhere around August 2020.

Could you find a more sophisticated critique of the patriarchy? Sure. Could you find one that with an opening weekend haul of $155 million, meaning millions of unsuspecting bubble gum conservatives in red states got an unexpected blast of feminist theory?

Expect Kid Rock shooting Barbie dolls with his AR15, and wingnuts boycotting Mattel.

So is Qevin stupid enough to allow his goon squad to move forward and impeach Joe?

Uh, but when Trump did it Qevin says it’s OK cause Jesus…

They’re there because the Army needed a big, wide open space for two armored divisions and two headquarters staffs, and for testing tanks and tank destroyers intensively and quickly during WWII. The whole operation could just as easily be set up in Iowa or Wyoming—especially since Wyoming is basically empty, anyway.

The Defendants defaulted on liability. The appeal at this point will only be over how much. Without proffering any contrary evidence on damages, that would leave mainly punitive damages at risk. Given the nature of the defamations and the local nature thereof, hopefully the moneybaggers would have a tight grip on their pursestrings.

This is the ultimate truth - Trump has never wanted “President” … he wants “King” total ownership - with no oversight, no checks, complete unfettered power - power to do / take whatever he desires.
