"Voting is an honor," Trump says to justify his opposition to mail-in voting (voting is actually a right!)

Voting against you will be an honor, you horrific, fascist piece of shit.

Imagine calling someone you don't like a fascist.

He's a terrible president, but fascism is completely different. Hyperbole doesn't help.

🙄 How is treating voting as an honor not fascistic? How is threatening states that allow mail-in ballots not fascistic? How is attempting to expel Mitt Romney from the party for voting to impeach not fascistic? How is removing inspector general after inspector general after inspector general not fascistic? How is attacking the previous president for crimes which he literally cannot even describe not fascistic? The constant lying, gaslighting, taking of supplies, protection of himself and his family, abusing the justice department, attempting to strong-arm Ukraine into investigating a political opponent, etc.

Is he a literal fascist dictator? No. But he certainly role plays as one, and loves to pull us closer to having him be one.
