Citizens being assaulted, arrested, and sent to jails. Military-style sweeps of Hispanic neighborhoods. This is what Congress just gave President Trump $150 billion to do to Americans in every state. www.aclusocal.org/sites/defaul...

The huge increase in the ICE budget isn't for immigration enforcement. Trump is forming his own SA/SS/Gestapo/Stasi. Stephen Miller is channeling Heinrich Müller, Ernst Röhm, Heinrich Himmler, and Erich Mielke combined. Fascism is here, including at SCOTUS, which will overturn the injunction.

With the new laws and budget ICE and private bos on the ground will be managed by a super smart surveillance AI by Palantir similar to Uber drivers so they will be extremely effective even if individually stupid similar to the empire soldiers : masked, enhanced and disciplined.

S.4361 was functionally identical to this - and it was Democrats’ signature piece of legislation in 2024, when the Democrat President stood up in the State Of The Union and thundered a promise to deport all the “ILLEGALS.”

DEMOCRATS did. A VAST majority of Democrats voted for S.4361, the Border Control Act of 2024, which would have done the same thing. The Democrat who was President last year stood up in his State Of The Union & shouted about getting rid of “ILLEGALS.” DEMOCRATS did this, just as much as Republicans.

Yes, republicans did it, but they couldn't have done it without the voters, who vote based on issues the president has little control over, like food and gas prices. They also vote on social issues which have no place in politics. That's why trump loves uneducated voters.

Don’t believe for ONE moment that SO MUCH of why ppl voted for Trump was prices. It rests squarely on these points: 1. Racism 2. Misogyny 3. “Get the libs” Those ppl were NEVER going to vote for the smart, black lady, & it wouldn’t have mattered if she promised free eggs for LIFE for every American

couldbethat.bsky.social @couldbethat.bsky.social

Valid points. That's why trump has such a huge following. But, I live in a majority blue state, and so many people I've spoken to "didn't like" trump, but voted republican because they couldn't afford groceries, or gas, and "things were easier under trump". Enough, as I see it, to lose the election.

That is interesting. I too live in a “blue state”. Nobody I know who voted for Trump wouldn’t have voted for him, literally no matter what. Nobody I knew “held their noses”. They were all RT wing demagogues explicitly/implicitly. They still haven’t changed their tune. But I RESPECT your experience!

Thank you. I must confess I messed up that post, meaning to say "red", not "blue". It's close to being a 50/50 "battleground" state. The voters I spoke of supported either party, or none in particular (me). Many are apolitical, but sadly, they still vote. All who were on the fence, voted for trump.
