    It’s funny how modern day conservatives use the term “fascism” like they think it’s negative, when they literally want everything that fascism would entail.

      I’d settle for permanent house arrest in Idaho, with a permanent ban from any and all forms of media. He’ll be dead soon, and obscurity would be the the ultimate form of punishment for a malignant narcissist.

        They tried that with napoleon and it didn’t work out well for France or the world.

        Germany locked up hitler for an only few years and it didn’t work out well for Germany or the world.

        Fascist narcissist dictator megalomaniacs must be dealt with harshly. There is no other way

      If Trump accusing other people of fascism doesnt sound onion-y to you, I’m guessing you’re more the Babylon Bee type?

      Although in this case it’s kind of like the captain of the Titanic deliberately steering into icebergs while shouting “fucking hell, we’re going to hit those icebergs” from the safety of the lifeboats.
