I used to think it was hyperbole, even from him, that he could shoot someone in broad daylight and get away with it.
He was right. There's apparently nothing he cannot do.
- not hyperbole at all ever since they declared that any presidential act isnt a crime.
- When someone tells you who they are, believe them.
  
  100%. I believed he thought he could get away with that. I just foolishly thought he was wrong.
- Wouldn’t surprise me if he executed Joe Biden on 5th Avenue himself
The U.S. is a dictatorship.
- Can't be a dictatorship during a civil war. We'll see what happens if it comes to that. It still baffles me that we decided a reality TV star whos bankrupt half of his business should be in charge of everything.
  
  Most of his businesses. Apparently, in America, success is all perception, not reality?
  Dug up from a previous post:
  Mango Mussolini's failed businesses:
  At least four failed building ventures
  Had a failed “university”
  Failed vodka business (how hard is that, right?)
  Failed steak business
  Failed airline
  Failed board game
  Failed casinos in Atlantic City (how do you fail at running multiple businesses that only exist to hoover up money?)
  Failed magazine
  Failed luxury travel organization
  Failed mortgage company
  Failed presidency that took Pres. Biden’s administration most of their entire term to fix. We’re talking documents that are gone, departments that are deleted, abject chaos that had to be rebuilt from scratch in some cases.
  Successes:
  Had mommy’s money to get him going
  Had 5 successful buildings built, mostly in the 1980s
  At least three of them had fraudulent financial statements, inflated valuations, and inflated tax losses
  
  A third of us decided that. Another third disagreed with that notion. Another decided that they couldn’t be bothered to decide one way or the other.
  
  I mean, if he was only a idiot TV star, but he's an actual pedo-rapist who already tried to destroy US democracy once, and told people he was going to be a dictator... What did Americans expected? At this point, we can only hope the country self-destructs without briging the entire world with it. As a canadian I'm honestly scared.
Think of it like climate change. We’ve had a warning after warning. Apparently there is no line that he cannot cross.
It's going to get much, much worse, have no fear.
How many warning signs are Americans going to ignore lol
