Yeah I mean I don’t think Trump will begin gassing Jews etc; which is why I look at the Hungary analogy a bit more closely.
It isn’t as well known, but it’s more likely a 2nd Trump term and beyond will look like what Orban has done in Hungary.
Basically they were too disorganised. You did see by with their fake elector schemes and Jan 6 they were definitely trying, they just weren’t organised enough.
So you ignore everything else I said and take an isolated part of it that Tucker has gone to Hungary without context and claim all is ok.
He’s there trying to normalise the regime over there, if it was him on his own, no big deal, but put all the other pieces together.
You just want to believe all is ok, that’s fine, you do you.
If I told you in 2019 that there would be an angry mob attacking the capitol on Jan 6 because they thought the election was stolen and 6 people got killed, you’d have thought that was hyperbole too. You’d have probably thought overturning roe v wade would never happen and hysteria, yet here we are.
Thing is you’ve probably normalised that, normalised Trump claiming the election was stolen, normalised the presidential immunity a 2nd Trump term would have, normalised the overturning of abortion rights etc.
What I am learning here is if a wannabe dictator at first fails they give up, so no need to worry.
Also even when they say they will try again and do it properly this time, they are obviously joking and we shouldn’t worry until it actually happens.

Not really. I can see the US having spot fires of rioting, deaths and conflict after this next election.
But different than a dictatorship emerging.
I don’t get the obsession with Hungary. What has Orban done there that is so terrible?
Thanks, what are you basing that on?

Thats bad news for jock and dante
It could be fairly bloodless and just further rights eroded over his term.
As I said, it would be gradual, I mean it’s already happened to a degree in that so much what was considered unthinkable a decade ago is now considered normal.
Doesn’t mean we are at a dictatorship but the trend line is going towards authoritarianism.
Best case scenario is the system holds in a 2nd trump term through a mix of good people still refusing to do Trumps bidding or his administration is still too inept and undisciplined to get too much done.
They aren’t really the type of things I’d prefer to be relying on.
The real game in the November election will be who holds the majority in the House of Reps and the Senate in 2025.Seriously - you can't make this shit up
The likely POTUS is a serial lying rapist convicted felon who wouldn't know a fact if it bit his yuge orange arse.
The incumbent couldn't put 2 words together in a critical debate and made Trump look better than him - FFS are you kidding me?
Next in line is a generationally privileged conspiracy theorising idiot who has had a worm eat some of his brain - plus he's a former coke addict who's also a sexpest who would allegedly root an ottoman or venetian blind...........
USA !! USA !! USA !!
See this is the thing, it’s not overt, more creeping authoritarianism.
So if you think that is fine, you’re likely to think a 2nd trump term is fine.
Not all wannabe authoritarians and dictators are these obvious moustache twirling villains , most get it into power by using the democratic system at the time.
Trump loves Orban because Orban is anti-diversity and loves banning elections.
That's something that is dear to old Donald's heart.
And he blames soros for everything bad
Orban promotes the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.
Despite the population of Hungary consisting of 87% natural born Hungarians, and over 40% stating that they are Catholic, he still promotes this belief that they are being replaced by outsiders, most typically Muslims.
What's Trump saying?
They are being overrun by people south of the border.
I see it's still legal in Florida.
I don't think Trump would survive without internet pr0n.
Ronnie would never ban it because of donald
