    Most of that is edge lord comments but it should be investigated. Trump is doing what he was elected to do on the platform he was elected on. There is nothing more democratic than what is going on right now. He is doing what he said he would do if elected. This isn’t fascism; this is democracy in action. I am not a fan of everything he is doing but I didn’t vote for him.

      This is not democracy. He’s violating the Constitution left and right. He has private individuals with zero clearance breaking into secure locations and accessing confidential information they absolutely do not have the right to access. Gutting congressionally mandated agencies without congressional approval, and illegally purgung the government of workers who refuse to break the law for him.

      Stop pretending this is normal!

        The process for that is impeachment or the courts.

        The rant about information is false. The teams have all the clearance for the data they are working on. I am not sure why people keep repeating that lie since Trump is the one who decides what data they can access.

        Calling for his murder, or anyone else’s, makes you a crap person though.

        It IS democracy. He got voted in. Cry all you want. He’s gonna be our president for a while.

          Getting voted in doesn’t mean you get to break the laws with impunity. I can’t believe this needs to be pointed out to you. Most other dictators also initially took power legally. Then they seized more illegally.

          This man has previously called for the murder of Americans. Excuse me if I show no empathy if those he’s threatened aren’t happy about it.

      Yep, agreed. I DO think most of it is keyboard warriors LARPing.

      But some were severe enough that I reported to FBI and secret service hotline.

      So lemmy is at least on government radar now.

        And it should be reported. Violence isn’t the solution when the man was elected on this platform by the people. The proper channel is impeachment if people want him removed. I’m not a fan of everything he’s doing but some of the information coming out is shocking. We really were wasting money on stupid things.
