Me, too. It’s so sad to see so many of my generation (Cold War/Vietnam era, especially those who served in the armed forces falling all over themselves to support the orange cannonball doing all he can to destroy this country with his overt lawlessness and insurrection dog whistles. It is truly sad and unnerving since many of their fathers and uncles fought and defeated fascism in WW II. They dishonor the legacy of “The Greatest Generation.”
I know my father would have been angered by the GQP’s embrace of fascism. On June 6, 1944, his Army unit landed on Utah Beach as part of the operation to liberate Westen Europe from the German occupation. It’s probably a blessing that he passed away in 2003 and thus was not able to see the rise of fascism in our own country.
Not sure how you thought that was a helpful statement. Yes, we do have a lot of fascists, but we have more anti-fascists working very hard to keep them at bay despite the deeply imbedded fascists they got in the Supreme Court and other areas. Painting all Americans with the same brush does a disservice to those who daily struggle against the fascists.
Europe now also has its problems with fascists, and rare also struggling to keep them in check. So do all the other continents for that matter.
Can anyone picture Biden doing this? Eisenhower had a speech prepared in case the D-Day landings failed. He insisted on taking all of the blame. “The troops, the air and the Navy did all that bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt it is mine alone”.This is but one of the reasons why Joe will go down as the worst POTUS ever.
Google An Italian television show has brutally mocked President Joe Biden’s mental state in a Saturday Night Live-style skit aired on Saturday.The skit portrayed an actor mimicking Biden, mumbling through a speech, wandering aimlessly, and confusing world leaders’ names.Humor is always best when it portrays reality. Everyone gets the joke.
Instead of collaborating and testing to find the most resilient, pragmatic, altruistic solutions, … our increasingly divisive, opposing party system has been dominated by self-centered power-seekers unwilling to share control or even listen to others.
If only every SINGLE member of the armed forces, past and present, and their families would speak out on this draft dodging coward and openly refuse to vote for him. If only.
Be afraid, be very afraid because Donald Trump could be elected. Donald “Putin’s Puppy” Trump will make Putin’s dreams come true by giving the Russian occupied portions of eastern Ukraine to Russia. Trump will put a bullet in the head of Ukrainian democracy. Trump is political COVID-19.
Hundreds of thousands of young people died on D Day to defeat an ideology that Trump, the Federalist Society, SCOTUS, the Heritage Foundation, and MAGA acolytes are trying to now impose on America.
If FBJ is a bot, it must be a cut rate bot , like Traitor Trump’s cut rate fellow criminals (I mean lawyers.). If Ike were here today he would no doubt blast the hel out of the fascist Traitor Trump.
My dad served in the South Pacific and later in Japan. Oddly he managed to get a desk job. In a way I’m glad he died in 2003. Reagan and the Bush dynasty made him apoplectic. The last few years would have been too horrible for him.
“Joe Biden issued 94 executive orders undoing everything Donald Trump did to really secure the border. … One order pretending to get tough won’t make up for 94 previous orders gutting border security.”
