Yes, this definitely a vestige of the Soviet Union. No POTUS has done this since I was born; and when I was born, Harry S. Truman was President. Never thought this would be done in my lifetime, not in America.

Love how they have employees out there pretending to take pictures for this staged photo

Yes, and they are dressed in red, white and blue.

North Korea does it better

insulting to Soviet Union

Is that his mugshot picture?

Yup

Now *that* is Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Middle finger to the new banner

USA voted for Trump, everyone knew this should happen. Kamala warned for fascism.. I'm happy to be an European.

I’m glad you are too so you don’t have to experience what we who voted for VP Harris are going through.

Theodore Roosevelt is rolling in his grave

- wonder what building this is..... - seems pretty easy for the people to take down - receipt of disgusting, wasteful spending of good hearted citizen's hardworking money

Wait until he starts putting up statues of himself.

Indeed it does. Worst part is that most #Americans can't even understand what's happening to the nation. Until it'll be too late. The traitor uses TR's image, this is what TR really stood for. 👇🏼

This is a video where they are clapping and cheering

Saw this despicable display a couple of hours ago when I came past on my bike. No cheering crowd, thank goodness, but every invader I saw downtown was carrying a rifle (and not slung over their back) It is difficult to convey how DC has been the past 2 weeks if you don’t live here.

As a dual citizen not living in the USA since 1984 it is hard to wrap my mind around what life is like inside the USA now. Every time I do I get try, or see a post like yours, I get a headache, sick to my stomach and fight back the tears. Off to send another bunch of e-mails to elected US officials

🤦🤦🤦

Fun!

real?

Can you please provide more context? What is going on here? What do the banners say?

Fucking idiots

theyre not destroying my home with bombs but theyre destroying it all the same. this is not America.

im just stating facts. my grieving for hope i finished before he ever stepped back into office.

Or Nazi Germany circa 1933...

Da 👎

This is what they are forcing government employees to do now? Disgusting.

It does, and it’s sickening and maddening!

many such examples

Trump did say he would be a dictator. And now the MAGA have got their wish. But when the reality of what this means they might not be quite so happy.

And he'll "get everything so tight you won't have to vote again"

That’s where it’s heading unfortunately

It feels like 1930s Germany…

Nazi Germany, as well as the Soviet Union.

I never said otherwise.

Literally Pyongyang

Please join indivisible.org today to crush this regime.

Will there be enough saying NO, or will too many Americans remain complacent?

Gotta say no really loudly and disruptively (but nonviolent as long as possible) and be prepared to bleed and die. Because at this point, that's the only option that will make the press finally say something. Real-time visceral visuals that no MAGA lies can spin

And holding fast to nonviolence no matter what, no matter how much it hurts, how unfair it is, and no matter how many evil agents provocateur try to push the citizen occupation into violence. Soak up the beatings and bullets. Violent resistance isn't wrong, but it has no place at a protest.

We will soon see. 😬

That's what Trump is building.

An audience of one.

I’m trying to figure out if it’s authoritarian or totalitarian.. it sure as hell ain’t American.

Or fascist Italy.

Ugh.

Yeah, Trump never met a Russian dictator he didn't emulate.

Some irony with the Teddy banner.🙄

Irony is lost on Trump and his sycophantic administration.

Screw Merrick Garland Screw Mitch McConnell Screw all the lying, two-faced SCOTUS justices Screw our spineless Democratic party

DonOLD is into National Socialism - but that’s not far off
