For the record I really have no anger towards you. You asked a question and I provided an answer. You dont think Trump has the organization discipline intelligence or determination to pull something bad off. I get that.NegativeApproach wrote: Sun Oct 18, 2020 6:07 pm
I'm not buying the fear mongering on either side... Trump is not Stalin or Hitler. He's not organized, smart, determined, or disciplined.
He's an idiot. People give him way too much credit.
Trump can't pull off anything without it getting challenged in court and losing. Biden and Harris will be able to.
That's the back door trojan horse that violates our rights that I'm actually afraid of.
Trump is a clown. He's not scary. His followers are idiots, and while I won't dismiss the nationalist populism, the solution isn't a center right plutocrat.
Those that are hanging their hat on Biden are going to be sorely disappointed. And our 2A rights will be infringed upon.
Sorry if some people on here want to shoot the messenger. Their anger just shows that they are trying to live with the cognitive dissonance of their choices.
To me it's that I see him as a moral relativist, and what is good for him is categorically good. I dont know how much of the above mentioned skills and attributes he has or would need to do some serious damage to our society and or bring harm to me and mine.
You are worried about the back door, I'm worried about the no knock smash in of the front door. You may be right but to me your concern is fixable within our system. Mine may not be, the executive has in the past ignored the court and this executive has shown us a great deal of disdain for that which impedes him.
I did not call him a monster I did not put him on par with stalin or Hitler, I simply see someone willing to use whatever tool is at hand to get what he wants. That is inherently dangerous to me. He forces something even if it is a haphazard disorganized display, how many will follow his lead? He need not be a monster or a super villain to say, "The election was stolen from me, from us, help me keep America great again and take back our streets by any means necessary." He need not be clever to order boarder patrol to round up voters in heavily democratic districts.
You are worried about the errosion of our foundation I'm worried about the sudden crack of the foundation. I respect your opinion I just think yours has time on our side to work out a way to shore things up and mine might not.
