It’s not news. My personal date for the start of dictatorship in the United Stated is March 14, 2025: that’s the first instance of Trump and his henchmen disobeying a court decision.
I think it was earlier, when the supreme Court ruled that the president could do what he wanted as long as it was part of his duties and THEY get to decide what is part of his duties.
As he said plainly, “I’ll be a dictator from day one”. And then millions of Americans looked at his record, looked at all the crimes he’d been found guilty of, considered his promise, and voted for him anyway.
What amazes me is that no one says he cheated to win like he did the first time. I would be very surprised if we couldn’t find some trace years later that we didn’t notice.
That’s because MAGA claimed Biden cheated for so long and so loudly that people were tired of hearing it and wanted to show they were better than the MAGAs.
As always they accused their opponent of what they were going to do themselves, and it continues to work for them.
I would trace it back to September 11, 2001 at least. Specifically, the highly authoritarian response to that. There’s a direct line from what the US government started doing then to what they’re doing now.

My date is 2014 when a Princeton study concluded that the USA is not a democracy, but an oligarchy.

Yes I did say duty. Grow up.
Imagine not being able to distinguish between the words duty and doody.
Mans be getting his duties all over the constitution
Thank you for this because I wasn’t serious about growing up. Never grow up!

IMO it’s the day he took power the second time.

Real Darwin Award shit.

It’s just kind of a pointless thing to be mad about at this point, but it was definitely talked about.
I think in the first run it was discussed more frequently. That’s all.
There was that whole thing with Elon Musk and those “vote counting computers” in Pennsylvania.

Yes indeed. Bin Laden can be proud, the terrorists won

It happened November 5th 2024 when he, Elon and Putin stole the election. We’ve been cooked ever since.
TBF, this shitball started way back when Reagan sculpted handfuls from his own crack and named it all “policy”.
That’s only because you haven’t been paying attention. The US has been on this path for decades.
