@randahl@mastodon.social 🤞
@randahl
256 days is very long, he can start three wars until then. Including a civil war in the US.
@randahl Here's hoping
@randahl I so hope you are correct
@randahl I wish. But reading about all the attempts to influence these elections (gerrymandering, "save" act)I am not overly optimistic.
@randahl I don't be that optimist
We will see. If he is powerful enough to arrest all judges or not, if he is able to destroy democracy and replace it by dictatorship. He could start WW 3 and then there are no elections at all, not in US and in Europe either.
@randahl
Ever the optimist.
I would tell you to look up the term Reichtagsbrand, but I'm sure you had mostly the same history lessons that I did.
@randahl The problem is that Trump knows this and is getting desperate
@randahl assuming, naturally, that
- there will be midterms, at all.
- ICE won't be used as gestapo shock troops to scare away anyone not white-MAGAt from polls
- some form of self-coup attempt, such as fudging the elections count.
@randahl
Much hope from Europe.
I do hope Trump doesn't declare the election stolen and won't proclaim himself as The Great Imperator of the free world.
But for shure our Great Chancellor Merz will be one of the first to kiss his ring, his feet and his ass if he does.
@randahl
That or a civil war.
@randahl Unless, of course, he does what dictators do very well: bypasses democracy.
@randahl your lips to ...yanno
We hope so...
@randahl 471 days since the last free and fair elections. With ICE on guard, the dictator wins…
I don’t really share your optimism. Although there still is a glimmer of hope, for example after watching Stephen Colbert.
We hope.
Would not put it past the orange stain to refuse to accept them and try something.
