As long as they are like von Stauffenberg I would be okay with it.

Read the whole and thing and, wow. It's just unbelievable to me that people can support this man so fervently.
I guess it's what happens when you give people permission to be completely selfish and devoid of empathy. He's a fucking psychopath.
It’s what happens when you get your news in parts of the country where Fox and Sinclair own the airwaves. They make immigrants and democrats seem terrifying.
add in some social media for the younger people and bam, recipe for fascism.
Not psychopathy. But narcissistic personality disorder. If you know anyone who has lived with one, they can tell you it’s on the verge of psychopathy.
It’s crazy behavior and crazy talk because it’s mental illness, probably somewhere around 60 years untreated mental illness. And hallmarks of NPD are maintaining a personal alternative reality, mentally tearing apart anyone disagreeing with that alternative reality, and no empathy.
I’m sick to death of no one talking about it and calling it what it is. We can talk about Biden’s dementia but not this?
I agree 100%. Not sure if it'll helps you feel better but I'm "the" other person that has been saying this along with you lol. I'm a psychology geek and it is so completely obvious that's what he has imo. I have noticed over the years that people don't "get" NPD because it's so counter-intuitive to a functioning human though.
I would actually argue that NPD is on average more dangerous than the ASPDs like psychopathy and sociopathy because it implicitly involves other people. Psycho/sociopaths want "something" and will do anything to get it but sometimes that thing they want may be fairly harmless. Like maybe they sometimes they just stuff so they're thieves. Not great, but mostly a victimless crime. Narcissists specifically want admiration and to prop up that fragile sense of self but that always specifically involves other people, so they're always going to be in proximity with others where the ASPDers may not.
Tldr, the doom Cheeto is a POS with NPD and I will lose exactly zero sleep the day he dies.

Can't wait to hear how this gets sane washed.
"He meant to say genitals!"
Goddamn. And he's potentially president a second time.
Trump has already caused significant damage. If he wins, we can expect things to get really bad.
But even if he loses, look at what he's done. He truly believes personal gain is the only thing someone should ever value. There is no justice for someone like that, other than taking it all away. Forcing him to realize that humanity has only survived because we can work together for collective gain.
based on the latest data, it's likely he's going to get it.
Hitler ended up firing most of his generals. Then he shot himself.
Hitler's best generals tried to kill him.
Unfortunately this did not happen very quickly. The years leading up to it were pretty awful.
I read this entire article, and it made me sad. Because the guy's probably going to win. The people who need to read this article simply won't, and they will continue to believe what he tells them.
The people who need to read this article simply won’t
I mean, its definitely delusional, but its also not out of line with the kind of delusional asshats this country has scattered throughout our body politic. The whole reason we invaded Iraq in '03 was because we had these kinds of Generals. And back then, even Trump was saying how this shit was dumb and would end badly. Now we've got half a dozen proxy wars stretching from Ukraine to Yemen to the Philippines - spanning two different presidencies no less - and it seems as though Trump is campaigning on a few more. But then Harris is out campaigning with Liz Cheney who also wants a few more wars.
This, while living in a country that can't go four years without diving into another international conflict.
The people who need to read the article would, and then complain that it's all lies to denigrate Trump. It's a sick joke that I have family members who, "respect the military and those who serve", but continue to tout Trump as a Messianic figure to save America. The brainwashing/rot is real.
They're going to agree.
the only trump supporters who would bother reading this article are the ones who would be happy to hear trump invoke hitler.
Let's help make sure he doesn't win. Make sure that dems turn out to vote!
Isn't he up to destroy the USA? And rebuild it brand new like he wants it to be? 'All hail the emperor King Donald, 1st'?
what's his obsession with ballsacks about? wasn't he just talking about Arnold Palmers junk, now this? kinda sus...

Don't you think he looks tired?
His MAGA flock will love him more. He is sticking it the Liberals. Making them cry.
3 years from now they'll be crying again "he's hurting the wrong people"
Why? There's not a world war. Unless he's planning for one.
This is what the GOP wants for our future.
But he's NOT a Nazi!
