    In my anecdotal experience, the more Trumpy conservative somebody is, the more they are already miserable and complaining about everything all the time. If things get objectively worse for them then they might not act any differently day-to-day. The only question is how far things have to go before they will blame the correct people, if that is even possible for many.

    Eh. The biggest trump fans I know are well paid blue collar workers who definitely have something to lose if shit gets worse for them. They're just legitimately stupid people who refuse to see any evidence that Trump isn't their Messiah.

    Yea, they dont realize that they will be the very first ones taken out. Likely imprisoned for the very orders that they followed.

    This new US regime will attack its own military and try and keep the military leadership confused and/or clueless ... exactly like Russia does.

    "Fighting government tyranny" has always meant "exacting revenge for electing a black president" and historically "exacting revenge for having to treat black people as equals in polite company."

    You'd be hard pressed to find the kind of modern rhetoric around guns you see today before the Civil Rights Act. The NRA endorsed the National Firearms Act of 1934.

    It's always been about keeping guns out of the hands of the undesirables. That's the only consistent logic we see over the years.

    American conservatives endorse stricter gun control every time there are concerns about minorities and/or the left arming themselves.

    Meanwhile, they want no regulations to inconvenience the mythical good guy with a gun. As long as that "good guy" is a conservative white Christian.

    It turns out the very people who claim to be afraid of a fascist government are the ones responsible for that very same fascist government. The people who try to act the toughest have the weakest of minds.

    It would be funnier if it weren't happening.

    Sigh, enthusiastic fellatio seems to always be given to the undeserving.

    Yes, but it's their team of tyrannical pedo dictatorship. They have been prepping for a uprising against the other side.

    Yep. And all they had to do to placate and pacify most Americans was to tell them that they were going to do the exact opposite of what they were actually busy planning.

    Who would have thought that the oppressive regime they talked about was democracy...

    Yuuuup. Libertarians have openly called for fascism for years and have NOT received enough s*** for it.
