56. We do not want a red or blue military junta.

Sat Jan 25, 2025, 07:11 PM

Saturday

A bipartisan government and a bipartisan military under civilian command is what we want.

We do not want a Banana Republic headed by Generalissimo trDUMP and his ass kissing sycophants.

This is why trDUMP is so dangerous. He wants to break down all the rules and norms to make the government function to best suit his purposes only. Fuck everybody else. Fuck the US Constitution.
