You have an unhealthy obsession with white knighting Hitler.

You totally ignore Saadam and the Koran. You got dictatorship bias.

That’s not what white knighting is. But I’ll find a good definition in German to help you understand, Adolf.

Now you’re referring to me as such, it’s pretty unhealthy.

Holding a Bible makes you Hitler now. I hope nobody produces pictures of him eating food or we’re all going to be outed as Nazis.
It would be better if Trump had read it.

But then again he doesn't read.

It’s not fair to compare Donald Trump to Hitler.

Hitler served in the military during WWI, Trump’s a draft dodging pussy.

I’m sure some of his cornball fans will show up with a different take like

“Oh so now if you hide in a bunker you’re suddenly Donald Trump now, I guess”

Apparently doubling down on false equivalence is what cool kids do now. By all means, if blatant logical fallacy is your new go-to, don’t let me stop you.

Not sure if this was discussed in an another thread but here we go:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/senior-democrat-caught-hot-mic-201351896.html

Quote:
US congressman​ Eliot Engel of New York has been criticised following a hot mic gaffe at a press conference discussing the George Floyd protests.

Mr Engel — who asked the event organisers if he could speak during the conference — appeared to say: "If I didn't have a primary, I wouldn't care."

Footage posted by News12 The Bronx shows Mr Engel asking for the mic, but being denied by Borough president Ruben Diaz. Mr Diaz said he was reluctant because to hand over the mic because he was afraid everyone else gathered at the conference would then want a chance to speak.

Makes me wonder if this event is just super politicized because its an election year. I feel like there's people out there that would rather see this country tear itself apart than see Trump run for re-election or even win.

And can Trump declare martial law and suspend the election?

Or will he just declare it fraudulent when he looses and refuse to acknowledge it?

Stay tuned! Same bat**** time, same bat**** channel!

I already called it that's what's going to happen. I just want to see how the people react when he does it.

No, Trump cannot change the election date under any circumstances, even extraordinary. It's constitutionally mandated, and his term ends on January 20ty, also constitutionally mandated. It would take an act of Congress to move the election date, and that's not gonna happen.

It's interesting you still think laws apply, or that anyone will enforce them.

I mean, hopefully, obviously, but I have no optimism at all on this one. It will happen.

He WILL try to stop mail in ballots. He WILL declare emergency and prevent people from voting. He WILL declare he won the election even after he loses.

And here comes Vic with the logic. And whether or not Trump would acknowledge a loss is irrelevant. He would be forcibly removed if it came to that.

Looks like Steve King finally got beaten out. Randy looks like he'll toss Trumps salad on a whim, but I haven't seen any overt racism. Only took 17 years before Kings racism became too problematic for the GoP to keep backing. Good on you, conservative middle Americans. Baby steps.

In your fantasy scenario, when the Presidential term ends on January 20th, President Pelosi would be sworn in and have the entire Trump WH removed from the premises.

That's the plan, until it isn't. Everyone agrees this is how it will happen until someone decides it doesn't.

Some form of law enforcement, obviously. I don't know if that would be the Secret Service or some other organization. He loses any constitutional protections that apply to presidents when his term is up and the next president's safety takes precedence. Either way, it would never happen.

LA Police Commission held a public zoom meeting where citizens were given 2 minutes (eventually reduced to 30 seconds) to express themselves in regards to recent happenings.

Turned into a ~7 hour beat down. Below is a transcript from my favorite caller, but there's tons of gold in the video on youtube.

I also say that about you spontaneously combusting, but that doesn't make it any more likely to happen.
