What do the "Trump won't actually be that bad" people that I've been seeing on Lemmy in the last few days have to say about this?

"Um, aktually, this is business as usual for the United Snakes of Amerikkka."
I haven't seen that one yet, but I won't be surprised, since this is the "both parties are the same" crowd.
One of them actually said yes to me not too long ago when I asked if Hillary Clinton would have picked SCOTUS justices that would have struck down Roe v. Wade. That's how invested they are in this nonsense.
Right now though, they seem to be focused on "Harris lost because she ran a bad campaign and it doesn't matter that I helped enable fascism by not voting for her because I share none of the responsibility or blame" and "Trump won't be that bad because he just lies all the time."
That’s the majority of them all right, but don’t forget the accelerationists that hope a Marxist-Leninist system will rise from the ashes. The ones who don’t realize the damper the associated climate change acceleration will have on their plans.
Would those be the same ones that say that, despite the stock market and the private property and all the billionaires, China is a communist country because you have to go through capitalism to get to communism? They amuse me.

He was in a pretty good band?

Sorry, I had to
Well, gotta burn this account to the ground! I'ma see you all under a new moniker!
Incidentally, other than Jet Airliner, which was a cover, I have noticed that none of the Steve Miller Band's songs make a lick of sense.

This is how I know aggressive instance bans for bigotry work: I haven’t seen any of that. Sincere condolences to everyone who has to see the open sewer.
"Whose Steven Miller?"
I haven’t seen anybody say that so far.
Something, something, land doesn’t vote…
And that people live in cities.
I wonder what he will have to do before Americans are willing to admit that he is a fascist.
There were Nazi apologists in Germany after WWII that did not think the Nazis did anything bad. Literally nothing will make them admit they were wrong.
Nah but I bet they will be willing to admit that he’s fascist and claim that’s a good thing

There’s been a few. Not many. They seem like they’re the type that’s just in denial, not maliciously trying to smokescreen his ill intent.

They are Stephen Miller fans.
Don’t forget they’ll all be fired for gross incompetence after a month or so

It's a pity that Dondalph Shitler didn't spend time in prison, he could have written Mein Kräp.

Imagine north American mainstream journalists not letting someone pivot.
That was a masterclass.

Why are you yelling? I've been very respect.
....so you're trusting Maduro numbers.
The "journalists" and media wanted this. Sadly, it'll be ratings gold for another four years. They jusy don't realize they're all screwed anyway.
Also fuck this xenophobic piece of shit.
Dudes literally upset of who he is.
Hey I've seen those facial expressions before at around 2 AM at some raves.
I can't be sure he isn't also wearing a diaper.

Only the best and brightest. Out of all of the turds in the bowl, he really stands out. What a gigantic piece of crap.
Like the cream of the crop, the loftiest turds float to the top.

Anyone else here who had to do a double take, twice, at the headline, wondering why Trump would need a chief of police?

I would comfortably bet my life that this man is a sexual sadist who would tear up if he were tutted at by an elderly bus driver for trying to pay a $1.30 fare with a ten dollar bill.
