Re: Good King Trump
It goes so far beyond that too. The lock he's putting on the courts is going to codify the normalization of gerrymandering and voter suppression.
A Federal Judge Has a Plan to Let Politicians Manipulate Elections With Impunity
Quote:
The Supreme Court’s 5–4 decision in Rucho v. Common Cause opened the floodgates for lawmakers to draw egregious partisan gerrymanders without fear of federal lawsuits. By declaring that gerrymandering presents “a political question beyond the competence of the federal courts,” SCOTUS ensured that the 2020 redistricting process will be infected with extreme partisan bias in most states. That ruling was harmful enough on its own terms. On Wednesday, however, an influential federal judge suggested that Rucho’s rule should be expanded to prevent judges from intervening when lawmakers manipulate the outcome of elections through voting laws. If more courts adopt that theory, it will become harder than ever to challenge partisan prejudice in the administration of elections

In other news, holy crap, his new spokeswoman is formidable. Full of shit, sure, but really good at selling it. Watching her press brief now. She went for the throat on the WHO and the Flynn defense. The press is going to have to adjust from the easy meat bozo stomping they're accustomed to.

Re: Good King Trump
And here it is. Predictions that he would do to states what he did to Ukraine prove good,
Trump Is Weaponizing the Nice Things He Forced Democratic Governors to Say About Him – Mother Jones
Quote:
President Donald Trump has been open about the fact that he saw aid to blue states as a transaction: He’ll send supplies like masks and ventilators to combat the virus if the governors say nice things about him. The not-so-subtle message for over a month has been that if blue states hit the hardest by the pandemic want government help, they should offer something in return. As it turns out, what their governors have provided is fodder for campaign ad footage.

Re: Good King Trump
So I was looking for a thread to post a recap of the Bush years and found a really great blast from the past thread. I would have bumped it but it got hostile in places so I figure I’ll just link it here. Why here? Because here we are struggling by the best we can and it’s insights on how we got here.
As for what I wanted to post, long depressing Twitter thread:
I already posted in thread this bit about New World Order conspiracy as a more detailed history, but I’ll repeat with this unrolled version for easier reading:
Thread by @JYSexton: So. We need to talk about the white terrorist movement, how apocalyptic evangelicalism and NRA/GOP propaganda fueled them, and why they see…
And a special fuck you to Rick Wilson and Bill Kristol for eagerly paging the path to Trump, then behaving all Not Me. Trump, the symptom of a much deeper rot in the, for lack of a better word, “western world.”
*Rereads before pressing Reply, ugh what a rambling mess, presses anyway in hopes it’s useful
Eta: Reading postmortem thread about 2004: America's 50 Million Informed, Intelligent, Sane People - Freethought Forum
I also miss sleep.

Re: Good King Trump
The protestors have learned to not bring Confederate flags. However, the Illinois protestors need to work on utilizing less Nazi rhetoric.
Hundreds join Capitol protest to Reopen Illinois
Quote:
The German phrase translates to “Work sets you free” and carries a dark significance as the slogan notoriously posted at the entrances of several Nazi concentration camps, including Auschwitz in Poland, where an estimated 1.1 million people were killed.
“‘Arbeit macht frei’ was a false, cynical illusion the SS gave to prisoners of #Auschwitz,” the Auschwitz museum tweeted. “Those words became one of the icons of human hatred. It’s painful to see this symbol instrumentalized & used again to spread hate. It’s a symptom of moral & intellectual degeneration.”

The governor of Illinois is JB Prizker of Jewish descent, his family came to America fleeing pogroms in Kiev.

Re: Good King Trump
Isn't that just crazy how the swastikas and Nazi slogans so consistently feature in the same crowd as the Trump-Pence signs?
Probably economic anxiety again, dang it.

It's almost if there is some sort of cross over between Trump supporters and racist shit-nozzles.
