"See what you made me do?"

The entire MAGA movement is driven by tiny, limp dick energy. It's obvious these guys are compensating for lots of stuff, like lack of brain cells, but I'd bet anything that the average MAGA, and especially the MAGA leadership, are all sporting weenies that are far smaller than average.

Until it's not. It always starts as a joke.

The defense of bullies, since the beginning of bullies, along with "It was just a joke! Cantcha take a joke?"

They think this will lead to MAGA taking overinmesota, they are delusional. This will only make it worse for them.

He's supposed to get it every year.

It's not that they are rich, we've always had rich people. The problem is that we now have rich people with enough wealth to compete with nations, and they are getting even stronger. They are now starting to cut their own deals with nations that benefit them personally, with no regard to the nations, and millions of people that could be harmed by that policy. We've already seen Musk manipulate Starlink to steer a war in his direction, and unleash his hacking squad to rig an American election, just so he could use the opportunity to cripple all the government agencies that were investigating his crimes.

And it will only get worse. They are approaching Trillionaire status, and will be even more powerful. How long before multiple trillionaires form an alliance, and build their own personal military?

Eventually we will reach a point where it will become impossible to reign them in, and then we will all wonder why someone didn't do something about them when it was still possible, like NOW.

No fucking way this MAGA Lite loser is getting my support in 2028.

They haven't won a major armed conflict decisively, since WW2.

Do you think Trump would have changed his story? More likely he would have doubled down. But Newsome just chickens out. We already have one of those in the White House. What a putz, what a MAGA-Lite

If we are ever going to take this country from MAGA, AND KEEP IT THIS TIME, we have to be as rhetorical as they are. If Dems were doing even 10% of what ICE is doing, they would be screaming as loud as possible, using all sorts of colorful coded dog whistles. We have to embrace propaganda in our own way, and wield it effectively.

After the insurrection, when people were calling it a riot, or a mob, etc., I was reminding people all day, every day, to refer to it as an Insurrection, because it was the language used in the 14th Amendment, Section 3, to prohibit those who have participated in an Insurrection at prohibited from holding elected office. The Dems blew that GOLDEN opportunity of course, but it did get secured in the mind of the public as an Insurrection, and we can take another run at the supporters later.

When this is over, the only way we will be able to crush, and prohibit MAGA, and purge it from our government and society, is to declare it a serious, ongoing National Security Threat, and their members as Domestic Terrorists. Normally that would be crazy rhetoric to be spouting, and the MAGAs have said such, and much worse, about Dems forever, but in MAGA's case, it is true, demonstrable, and undeniable.

MAGA has been the sponsor of a violent, deadly Insurrection, the theft of hundreds of classified documents and state secrets, mind-boggling open corruption, incompetent economic policy, violent colonialism, and much, much more. There are many, many examples of all of these things, and they are NOT in dispute, even among MAGAs. They approve of this kleptokakistocracy, so their wishes can't be respected, any more than we would respect the opinions of Al Capone's buddies about his criminal behavior. We know who he is, we don't need to hear rationalizations from the criminals who benefit by his criminality.

If a FOREIGN country was sponsoring Insurrections, stealing classified documents, etc., we would deal with it harshly, perhaps even violently, perhaps even with a War, but they won't go after MAGA, that wouldn't be polite, and being polite is an OBSSESSION among establishment Dems like Newsome.

We need to designate all of MAGA as an ongoing, unapologetic, enthusiastic National Security Threat, starting NOW. They have made it clear that we are going to destroy all of our alliances, and keep antagonizing the rest of the planet until SOMEONE strikes back. This is obvious, and predictable, and most of all, INEVITABLE.

So let's start using and establishing the language, vocabulary, and definitions that will serve us and benefit us when this is over, and we are trying to figure out how to move forward. At that point we need America to support the end of MAGA, and it starts by declaring them Domestic Terrorists, and National Security Threat, and being unapologetic about it. Then, when this is over, we won't have to compete with MAGA defenses on the most basic charges. They will already be fixed in the minds of Americans, and it will just look like the MAGAs are tap-dancing.

When some doofus like Ben Shapiro asks for confirmation of that, any Dem needs to OWN it and should forcefully, confidentially repeat his statement that MAGA is a Domestic Terrorist Organization and a serious National Security Threat, and the next president's first priority will be the effective crushing and purging MAGA.

In fact, that's MY personal litmus test for future Democratic candidates: If you aren't serious about making the end of MAGA your top priority for your next term (and beyond), then you are ineligible to run for office, in my opinion.

Can you imagine if we had let Hitler off the hook, and allowed him to regain power a few years later? That's what we did, with the whole world watching. We can't squander the next opportunity. We must act decisively.

That starts with declaring them a serious ongoing National Security Threat, and Domestic Terrorism, and standing proud for saying it, and encouraging others to say it, too.

There are more Independant voters than Dems or MAGAs, that's who you need to impress. Nobody gets elected without the Indy vote, yet nobody tries to attract it, because the Indy vote won't respond to propaganda, or appearance, or bullshit. They actually want to know how you intend to govern, and politicians don't really want to talk about that.

We will never move on as a nation, until we acknowledge the MAGA stain, truly clean it up, and prohibit it from existing. Our Nation, our citizens, and the World, need to see a true commitment to decisively crushing and purging MAGA. Only then, can we possibly win the forgiveness of the rest of the World.

And I will only support candidates who vow to crush MAGA as their first priority, and then have a plan for reasonable proposals for health care, education, campaign Finance Reform, etc.

And for those who think the Dems need something more than Retribution Against MAGA, they are wrong right now. We will NEVER be able to enact any responsible legislation until MAGA is out of the picture.

Plus, imagine if we'd let Hitler off the hook because "we want to move on," and he got back into power a few years later, and picked off where he left off, except worse? That's what we did with MAGA, and the world is watching to make sure we don't do it again. If we do, this country is done, as far as having any decent friends again.

In her first rationalization speech after the Goode Murder, Noem went into detail about how blocking vehicles have been effective in thwarting ICE raids, and she wanted it to stop. That was when the murder happened.

They were ORDERED to escalate a confrontation, and send a message, and it caused a murder. Maybe they were even ordered to shoot.

We need to know the exact origin of the order, and the exact chain of command that order traveled, and where it originated. Noem, PeeWee Himmler, Trump?
