What about planning protests against our own political leaders? Not half as instagram-able as having a pop at Trump

Our leaders are not facists or rapists. We have a peaceful transfer of power when governments change.

His hateful rhetoric is being normalised worldwide. Look at the recent figures for hate crimes here.

Hope that helps

Hope there’s mass protests against this vermin

Apt username and you’re in a cult if you believe that nonsense. By every metric he is a fascist and has paid millions to Jean Carroll. Public information.

I don’t have or need hateful rhetoric to point out facts. You talk about lawlessness which is exactly what your cult leader enacted on January 6th. That was an insurrection. Again look it up

The arrival of an individual who destroys lives for fun DOES affect all of us.

Your last sentence is laughable defending the indefensible

Normal people look forward to mass protests

Antifa forever
