Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever.
Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.”
See where this is going?

The silver lining is he doesn’t have much time left thats the only thing giving me hope imagine the mess if he won 2020
-
Its time. ..plan a time
The entire country walks out in protest
Shut it all down.
-
2020 he wanted 100,000 armed guards stealing the election from Biden.
-
Plus there were still elections when the USA invaded Iraq, Vietnam Nam, Korea, etc., etc., etc.
-
There are no elections in Ukraine because Russia is bombing them nearly every day. Nobody is bombing the USA… yet. It’s a bullshit excuse, that criminals, like Adolph Orange use.
-
A lot of people, huh? Name them, Donnie.
-
Americans are now in a fight to the death. Trump and Republicans want to eliminate Americans who oppose their authoritarianism.

Saw where it was going last summer
-
What the hell makes him think starting a war would allow him to declare there would be no more elections?
-
I'm glad people are finally seeing what has been obvious since November. Trump is never willingly leaving the White House. Hoping he dies soon, while commendable, is not a plan.
-
At this point, there's a greater likelihood of him dropping from a heart attack than that happening. Chill, folks.
-
It’s never going to stop until we get rid of him. We need to organize.
-
Here’s my Paul Revere Award to you for being awake. Keep warning us!!
-
Time to pick up your 2nd amendment rights and FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! Legal means don't work with dictators.

I sure do hope his bodyguards can protect him from an Ariel attack by drones. Would be such a shame.
-
Yep
-
ABE. Anywhere But Epstein.
-
Who wants a friggin dictator ? Nothing surprises me anymore, Ive heard it all.
-
The phrase “a lot of people want a dictator” is chilling because it shows an intent to normalize authoritarianism. Democracies crumble when ambition overrides principles, and we cannot allow that precedent.
-
Yup
-
Already there
-
I hope you noticed thru the entire conference his left hand was covered with his right hand. HE IS NOT WELL. His speech and declarations are showing signs of his declining mental abilities. IMO concern should be on the less than BRIGHT BULBS who listen and ENACT his fantasy dreams of NOBEL PRIZE.
-
To hell, straight to hell. I don't believe he can't be stopped. Fishy.
-
almost 10 years of the bullshit three more to go🍿
-
civil war and mass rebelion, hopefuly
-
It’s unbelievable
-
people are slow on the uptake. we've been slidding into this situation for a minute now
lotta people suffering with chronic 'eventualism'
-
Many more people certainly do NOT. Get this guy (and his minions) out NOW. I don’t care how.
-
“A lot of people” is always him and his mental illnesses
-
-
Oh, I hadn't heard. You mean he's finally being transparent 🪟 for a change?? 😭😬
-
First he has to destroy US democracy, such as it is. Then he will act on his imperialist ambitions.
-
History has proven that the people would rather pay for a funeral.
-
Yeap as we watch putin gather troops next to Alaska. It becomes clearer
-
-
WTF
-
#Imp3achment
-
Those I would think were his real thoughts and what he believes since his mental capacity is diminished and he can no longer edit his thoughts.
-
I see a very real and very urgent need for state-level militias that operate independently from the Federal Government to begin organizing and practicing.
I see civil war as almost necessary. Trump isn’t the only problem. Can we honestly coexist with people who will install dictators? I say no.
-
He's not gonna make it that long. Just make sure shaD doesn't take that oath.
-
Don't tell that to impotent, complicit "journalists" like @jaketapper.bsky.social who are busy still reporting on Biden's age.
-
I heard. I am beyond worried
-
#UnTrumpTheWorld
-
Mate it's been visible since he said he would run a third term.
No it's not a fucking distraction.
-
There are a lot of us who feared this all along.
-
Yes, we all see it. It's very frustrating that we can't really do anything about it. Keep writing about it, and it will come true. Stop writing about it and it will come true anyway. May be not giving him the headlines he wants will frustrate him. Fat chance
-
The intention was clear when Trump said “Vote my beautiful Christians and you’ll never have to vote again.”
-
I think people need to understand that we're living under a dictatorship right now. Present tense. This is what it's like. And then it gets worse.
Trump is a tyrant.
-
-
You’d have to be blind, dumb and deaf not to know where Trump was going, since 2020….
-
He will try to be a dictator! We must thwart that!
-
He will burn the Earth to save his own ass.
-
Yep, about a fucking year ago while Hakeem and Chuckles continue to jack off and think a “conversation” is how to fight. We fucked.
-
Anyone with a brain can see where this is going. Let's hope that the only ones that want a dictator, are his WH employees, and cabinet. The rest of us want our freedoms. Especially from them.
-
How could they have been so f’king stupid that they couldn’t see this from the get go!
-
I think he wants/likes dick tasters.... cause no one wants him as a dictator
-
Let's not confer powers onto Trump he simply does not have. Your job sir is to illuminate his bullshit for the crap it is and not go along with it. There was a Presidential election during the Civil War in which Abraham Lincoln got reelected. The time and place of elections is outlined in
-
Yes…some of us have seen these tactics for a decade…with the last 7 months of dismantling 249 years of the experiment in democracy, happening faster than the first regime.
-
Beyond frightening
-
I do see where this going. I do think he wants to go there. Questions is, if he doesn't think MAGA will swing behind him then can he swing absolute power - as Stone etc. would want. If he doesn't need MAGA and can rely on the military to execute the law, in his favour, then he goes. Otherwise...
-
WE THE People need to RISE UP
-
Will we just wring our hands—or will we march, vote, and fund candidates who defend democracy? The moment demands action: in the streets, at the ballot box, and through local and national support.
-
See where this already is?

America tips into fascism (GUEST POST)
"Something is materially different in our country this week than last," writes historian Garrett Graff.
-
Was he telling US what’s about to unravel🧐 🤯 Or how he plans to hold power🧏♂️ Either way our Democracy is lost 😞 if this continues to escalate in an authoritarian way 🥺
-
By a lot of people, he meant him. He believes so much in his own opinions that he thinks others should share the same. It's a last minute power grab because he is probably dying.
-
He won't be around to see the destruction he created. Mango mussolini is approaching 80, and his health is rapidly deteriorating.
-
Most of the opposition has seen it all along...
-
get Luigi
-
Ole man say he wanna be a dictator ? What do the people say to that ? If they say ok , nothing much anybody could do , ain't it ?
-
Remember , Brian , ya do have a choice and a say to that , don't ya ? No ? That's my basic understandin of voters right , they dun have that anymore ?
-
ole man had everything figured out for midterm 2026 i suppose ... is he running on high grocery bills and dictatorship ? If he is , i leave him alone , he's a genius lol He probably put a lot thot into that
-
No, I want Trump swinging from the gallows! like he wanted his Vice President!
-
When the powers that be fail to hold accountable a prez who attempts a coup to try n hold onto power after losing an election, and these same powers that be invite him back, despite the US Constitution’s disqualification clause (fk the corrupt SCOTUS ruling) you get this. Damn it.
-
Not a single mainstream news report of this. People outside of MSNBC and Bluesky will not see this.
-
isn’t it fucking plainly obvious?
-
What the JD's Rubios and Millers need to srudy is what happens in dictatorships. Check all the ones around Stalin and Kim at the start and how many were still alive five years later.
-
It is very clear to me, that Trump, Miller & the rest of this Facist Admin want violence. They want this violence so they can declare an insurrection. Then they will use that to end all elections. They want to to hold on to power indefinitely as they will lose in an election. They can not have that
-
All too well.
-
No place good.
-
This is happening way too fast
-
It’s going where we knew it would go long before he was re-elected!
I can tell he’s chomping at the bit to start a war, but wouldn’t the war have to be on U. S. soil before elections could be put on hold? He’s jealous of Zelenskyy for this. 🤯
-
It is getting his Soldiers ready to attack all Blue States and use the "excuse" that there are high crimes to be dealt with, when in fact, the RED States are the highest crime locations on the Docket!
-
He's thinks our constitution is like Ukraine's or is trying hard to make it be. War doesn't stop elections here.
-
🤬🤬🤬
-
He’s dying right before our eyes right?
-
Like a game of hangman, fill in the blank. A lot of people want a dictator ... First letter is "D"😈
-
I am getting very nervous. If / when (🤞) Trump loses in 2028, what's to stop him from having a repeat January 6 but this time, just refusing to leave, like Maduro did in Venezuela?? It seems like he is already getting the military to do his dirty work.
-
-
Only the blind don't see where this is going.
-
Straight in that direction if people let him.
-
Absolutely the question is does the @democrats.org see it? @kenmartin.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @dscc.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov @housedemocrats.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov
-
-
Do the Republican people really want a dictator? Trump's not bothering to deny who he is because he's surrounded by sycophants who stand to gain. Do all the voting Republicans think they have anything at all to gain? Look what he's taken already.
-
He can’t not tell on himself…
-
#DementiaDon0ld must not be looking at any polling😆 He is the WORST President in history! Also, he’s a pedophile. #PedoPresident BFF of #Epstein Pals of #Maxwell convicted of sex trafficking 😡
-
Most of us can, but no one is really able to stop it, it seems. Words aren't working.
-
The QRF: He wants to have troops at the ready to put down protests. Classic Authoritarian Playbook. Militarized Streets (From my 100 Daze Series). bsky.app/profile/opsa...
-
How can he be impeached this time? There is a huge steaming pile of corrupt actions and illegal moves to pick from, let's start throwing it back at him. Constant attacks and 'distractions' will help him on his way one way or another.
-
You know perfectly well where it's going. Trump didn't even win the last election but here he is. You are now in the hands of a puppet Dictator. Trump is not the power; he is neither intelligent enough nor sufficiently mentally stable. Question: what are Americans going to do about it? ACT OR LOSE!
-
I don’t know who these “a lot of people” are but I’m sure as hell not one of them
-
I think it is a good idea to put him in a looney bin
-
#WhiteHouse Fuck you!
-
-
Yes we see that! Im not from US ,and saw that 7 months ago. Americans have to wake up. Dont think in elections we wil vote him away. Because if you dont act now ,there wil be no elections annymore. Then you het the new dictator ,his son!!!

U.S. sending warships to Venezuelan waters
U.S. warships are heading to the waters off Venezuela in a significant show of force by the Trump administration. Officials say the ship are part of the president's effort to combat drug trafficking.
-
Will he be around for Christmas?
"Dead man walking!"
-
Like the velociraptors in Jurassic park endlessly testing the electric fence
-
I think it's pretty likely that he's gonna invade Venezuela. It's a country with a vaguely hostile relationship with the US, one which the right-wing loves to demonize, and one which lacks any major allies who could potentially assist them in the event of a US invasion.
-
When historians look back at this time period and see just how many times he has openly said what he wants to do including cheat in elections, they are going to ask, “Where the people hearing all this idiots? Why didn’t they stop it all from happening?” 🤷♂️
-
The best polls say 10% of Americans want a dictator. No more, no less of what it took in South Africa to implement Apartheid.
-
🤬
-
But nobody wants a dicktator!
-
Yes.
He told us early last year.
Said “Vote for me and you won’t have to vote again.”
Yes.
He told us in 2019 and 2020 and so on telling us Biden stole his election.
Yes.
He has continually dehumanized, vilified all who do not worship him.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
-
The busses are running on time. Most won't care until it's too late. Just like 1933 Germany.
-
I’ve heard more than one MAGA person I know say “maybe we need a dictator to save the country…”
-
It's already gone there. We. Are. There. Here. Whatever.
-
It's pretty demented and uniquely human that he can just toy with us while dishing out project 2025 in little bits and relish it while we let him

Do you need to ask where this is going?
-
But there was just no concrete proof that Kamala actually worked at McDonald's...
What were we supposed to do
-
Sounds like we should get the guillotine.
-
-
🤬
-
My clock has it as 20 minutes after fascism already.
-
This is not news. At all.
-
He must be overhearing what the vicious grownups around him are saying.
-
I like dictators swinging by the neck🫶🏻
-
Yes
-
Sure do. Why oh why can't a few MAGA (there is no more GOP) in Congress find a tiny bit of spine and remember what it used to feel like to be a proud American & not a human rights violater, a law for me but not for thee, supressor of history, anti-science, pedophile protecting autocratic theocracy?
-
We are already there.
-
Unfortunately yeah, we all see where it's going :(
Question is, how do we stop it?
-
Sending parts of the Armed Services to blue states under the guise of increasing crime is just a cover for setting up the blocking of voters in NOVEMBER elections. Redistricting may not work, but PROVEN right wingers in all parts of the military WILL follow orders to intimidate voters in November.
-
-
Not 'going' - 'are'...
-
Because if you do, you're ahead of the entirety of the White House Press Corps and 98% of all "journalists" in the U.S.
-
The only thing I wanna see from a dictator is a knife going up their ass.
-
Yes, yes I do see where this is going. And this is exactly what the constitution empowers and calls on us to fight against.
-
Is it because of his weight that he views himself as "a lot of people"?
-
A lot of dumb ass people he means…
-
Anyone with a brain sees where this is going if we don’t take to the streets.
-
-
This has been the path the GOP has been on ever since Bill Clinton denied Bush Sr. a second term.
-
I don’t believe our Constitution allows for that.
(Then we all cry as we acknowledge our SCOTUS majority couldn’t care less about the Constitution.)
-
he will "give them what they want". he is now fully delusional, makes up conversations as if he heard them...ask Wes Moore!
-
No one but his complicit enabling comrades, his wealthy oligarch donors, the corrupt US Supreme Court, ignorant uneducated Americans, and last but not least the corrupt regime leader himself want that!
-
Testing the water…
-
Don't think so!
-
It’s up to the people of USA to stop this before it’s too late .

Media reports
-
He's as subtle as an elephant in a porcelain shop for us but the MAGAs will be convinced that this BS is in their own interest 🤬
-
No doubt this is more than just a statement.
-
I called my GOP Rep, Mark Amodei, asking WTF? How could he and the GOP let those happen on their watch? Do they think that history will treat them kindly? Do they think we will forget their acquiescence? They will go the way of the Nazis in 1944.
-
Although Trump made a statement about canceling elections during wartime, he did not say he "likes the idea of starting a war."
Claiming such is not credible journalism.
See where this is going?
-
A LOT of people? Who? What’s their names??
-
Hopefully he can die beforehand because I don't think couch fucker can control the party in the same way.
-
There is hope. In 1989, Romania got rid of their dictator problem, lickety-split:
-
Anybody with half a brain saw where this was going BEFORE November 5th.
-
That's why he met with Putin, getting his orders. Nobody in their right minds wants a dictator. Putin used dictators, then forced them to sign over their corps to him. Trump is trying to do the same. Trump used all of them, and they're too money hungry to see it.
https://Trump.is
-
I think I need to see the whole interview where this was said because honestly, it’s hard to form an opinion when most of the quotes are taken out of context or shared by biased individuals.
-
Don't worry, he will die before his term ends, THEN, we must impeach J.D., if we haven't impeached tRump by then...
-
Some of us saw this on J6. Why the media continues to this day to enable this pathologically lying geriatric psychopath in full decline is an enigma.
-
Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files, Release the Epstein files and furthermore...Release the Epstein files...
-
Remember when fat head Sean asked him about being a dictator. Trump played the idea down and they both had a good laugh. No peace prize for orange dictator wannabe.
-
I saw where it was going in 2016 sadly…
-
Saw it in 2018 but nobody wanted to hear it.
-
Every right thinking person does . Our best hope is that nature does our work for us , despite his assurances he’s clearly not in the best of health 😜
-
-
I hope the regime will soon be stopped. It’s up to us. And I don’t know how it can best be done
-
-
It been clear to me ever since he said he wanted his people to sit to attention like Kim Jong's people do.
-
I saw a documentary on Otto von Bismarck who started a war with France to show supremacy and he also assumed that he'd be in power for life.
It was so relevant even though it was a 50 year old show.
-
Well. A lot of people hot a dictator. Unfortunately 265 million aren’t going to tolerate it.
-
And too many people are saying, "Now, that's My type of dicktator." And christians think this kumbaya peace they have will last. Once they regain control, they will repeat history, turn on themselves and and plung America into christowars from European history. Not today, but all too soon.
-
Breaking: He means it.

Everyone still needs to vote in high numbers though.

We saw this coming a while ago.

Never had a moment's doubt. I believed Kamala 100% and have been trying to prepare for this moment since January. It still feels like a kick in the gut.

Who doesn‘t see it?

And the “ war department “ is another top off.

Im so fucking sick and tired of these doom ass posts about that demented crazy ass orange rotting piece of shit bullshit, everyday all these amazing intelligent content creators like Brian have to write about this fucking shit, when it could be so different if a bunch of crackers weren’t so dumb! 😣

The US Constitution doesn't allow it. At least 6 presidents have been elected during wartime.

Why not? 🤷♀️
