Some of Donald Trump’s allies are assembling proposals to curtail the Justice Department’s independence and turn the nation’s top law enforcement body into an attack dog for conservative causes, nine people involved in the effort told Reuters.

    “He’s joking.” “You’re taking his words out of context.” “That’s not what he means.”

    Trump is completely clear about his plans to overtake our government. If he wins, he very well may become our last president and first dictator.

      Liberals and socialists in the US need to arm themselves and prepare to remove the republicans. They will stop at nothing, and neither should we.

              They’re trying to suggest prepping for the “inevitable” civil war. Sane people don’t recommend amassing weapons and imply anarchy over an election.

                You must be thinking of the “sane” that exists in your version of the world where you believe Democrats will win the vote, Trump accepts the loss with a graceful congratulatory speech to Biden, the Mets win the world series, love conquers all, and somehow, all the fucking lunatic/racist/homophobe/suckered/religious/nutjob-types (not saying all republicans) just decide to back down and play fair.

                It might not be sane people who start a civil war. But that doesn’t mean sane people won’t be drawn into it, or targeted.
