Aw, fuck. We can’t get rid of him.
In another speech that illustrated an unreal dystopia of America in a hellscape “like no one has seen before,” Donald Trump brought up a list of grievances from election fraud to North Korea to immigration in a Mussolini-like speech that highlighted Trump’s version of history
Calling back to January 6th Republican-led domestic terrorist attack on Congress, Trump said he and his followers would take over the “corridors [carters?] of power,” an intentional invocation of violence that is one of the hallmarks of fascism.
Relying highly on nationalist imagery, Trump glorified himself as the savior of America, predicting that the next two years will take the nation into a hole, “the likes of which no one has ever seen.” Trump’s rewrite of history blows past the fact that he skyrocketed the debt and had to financially prop up industries like manufacturing and agriculture to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars in deficit spending due to his trade wars, which he claimed were raging successes.
He then went on to talk for more than 40 minutes. Blah blah blah. “Trump great.” “Biden ruined everything I did.” Blah blah, blah blah blah. “Election stolen.” “Most persecuted person.” “Everybody loves Trump.” If you’ve seen one Trump rally, you’ve seen them all, except this time, the exceptionally white audience was in a gaudy ballroom.
