In case you had any doubts about his fascism.

    Trump became angry. “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” He turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and issued an order: “Don’t pay it!” Later that day, he was still agitated. “Can you believe it?” he said, according to a witness. “Fucking people, trying to rip me off.”

    Jesus fucking Christ.

    So, for starters, that’s about as openly fascist as you can get.

    Secondly… Hitler kinda… you know… was famous for firing or otherwise disposing of his generals because they would push back against his insane plans and orders… almost always because they were simply practically infeasible, unlikely to work, countermanded previous orders that were already in progress, caused confusion and logistics disasters…

    …which fucking caused the Nazis to lose.

    A few of them even tried to kill Hitler, recognizing his total incompetence as a raving, drug addled military supreme commander would doom the Nazis, and all of Germany, to obliteration.

      Per the article, somebody tried telling Trump this:

      According to Baker and Glasser, Kelly explained to Trump that German generals “tried to kill Hitler three times and almost pulled it off.” This correction did not move Trump to reconsider his view: “No, no, no, they were totally loyal to him,” the president responded.

    Must be hard trying to do your job when the fry cook next to you is praising Hitler’s generals.

        I read it as “generals” the first time, but after reading these comments, now I only read “genitals” when I glance at the headline.

        That’d be Arnold Palmer’s, though. Just a completely toxic workplace all coming from one clown.

    Never had a doubt.

    Neither did a large portion of his supporters.

    I’m really worried about the future of the country. I live in deep red Louisiana and all of my family and friends are hardcore Trumpers so I can’t discuss any of my concerns. My vote won’t matter so all I can do is hold out hope that Harris/Walz can take the swing states.

        I’ll be doing that for sure — I’ve got a bunch of highly competitive local races that I care about.

            Gotta wonder if his name being “Allred” will confuse any MAGAts who otherwise wouldn’t into voting for him. Like “We need to vote all red to help Dear Leader as much as we can. Ah, here it is, Allred”. Like, the number isn’t likely to be high, but seems like something that would have a decent probability of happening a nonzero number of times.

              Something of the opposite for Rafael “Ted” Cruz sounding like a Latino Dem, while Collin Allred sounds like an Irish Republican.

      Yeah, those of us living outside swing states are basically limited to kicking in money and volunteer time. I’m lucky in that I was able to catch a bus to a swing state this past weekend, and spend a couple days knocking on doors.
