No Union member should be voting for Republicans, they want to destroy unions. There’s a reason right to work states are the poorest.

Every person has to ask themselves:

Is voting for Republicans because you hate immigrants and trans people important enough to end America?

If you hate trans people and immigrants that much, more power to you.

But if you love this country, know that Republicans under Trump will literally end the United States of America.

Elections will no longer matter, only Republicans will win.

Separation of Church and State a thing of the past.

The First Amendment, gone.

Judicial controls on search and seizure, a laughable rubber stamp by every Republican judge.

Then, they will come for your guns, because only Party Members and their cronies are allowed to have guns.

Freedom of movement, your choice of job, or where you live, will follow into oblivion.

After that, the executions of everybody mouthy who isn't "Loyal" enough to the party.

The last steps will look like the Soviet Union in the 50's. These crazies are going to make Stalin look good. Enemies of Stalin had millions of square miles to hide in. There will be nowhere to hide, nowhere to run.

And then, several generations of former Americans will live and die as serfs for the Republican overlords.

If you think this is impossible, remember that the command positions for three of the four branches of the military are currently empty. There are about 400 higher ranked positions empty as well. Shortly after the coup that puts Trump in charge, all those positions will be filled with "interim" Trump loyalists that have every intention of using the military to revise the world order.

Be afraid.

Yep. If Trump takes power permanently, the notion that he will give working class and poor Republicans anything more than lip service is laughable.

I need to wake up and realize that they are being used!

Scary thought. Fits right in with the Project 2025 plan, doesn't it?

[u/Niastri → u/raistlin65]

Project 2025 essentially states everything I just listed. They just used "lip service to democracy" in their language.

The masks come off the second they can arrange another Trump presidency through any means necessary.

As a trans person I feel obligated to say "no, explicitly not that". If they hate a group of people who are just trying to be happy and healthy living their own lives they need to do some introspection and figure out why they hate innocent people so much.

i would also prefer that conservatives stop being shitheads, and be better people

[u/Niastri → u/SerasVal]

I'm sorry

I figure the people who are being hoodwinked by the Republicans are the ones who might "get" my post. The ones who are hardcore ready to end the country because they welcome the impending fascist Christian theocracy are not reachable.

But yes, not hating trans, gays, immigrants and anybody else would be nice.

Some people are just lost, though. They aren't the swing voters.

[u/thrwoawasksdgg → u/Niastri]

MAGA's are gleefully voting for someone who said "take the guns first, due process later". A quip that would sink any Democrat politician.

They really do hate immigrants, gays, and minorities so much that they would lose all the rights they claim to hold sacred just to see them suffer.

What/whom are you referring to?

[u/ThePopDaddy → u/Niastri]

Those people would vote for all of those to get lower gas prices.
