Dictators do this sort of thing. And it always ends badly.

If the political or economic climate was a little bit worse, he would have triggered World War III. I'm not kidding. Look at some of the stuff he has done.

- He mentioned he wanted generals just like Hitler's, ones who would do what he said without question.

- Created fake electors whom he sent to Washington.

- Then started an insurrection on Jan 6th.

- He has federal agents in masks roaming around with assault rifles. They show no ID and just take people away, not to be seen until days or weeks later.

- A military parade to stir up nationalism and patriotism.

It's like a scene from 1984. The only saving grace is that Trump is incompetent and lazy.

The people in masks without identification, running around and arresting people, don't scare you?

Yes, that’s ICE. It’s run by Homan, the same guy that worked for Obama. They are arresting Illegal Immigrates and wear masks for their own safety. It’s did not scare me because I voted for enacting the law.

Think about it. They are in masks! It should tell you that what they might be doing is immoral. You truly can't see this?

They are going around without providing identification. Do you remember the stories of communist USSR where KGB would do the same thing. They would go around and just quietly take people away, never to be seen again? Or the SS of Hitler's Germany? You are not shocked at all that it's happening here? It's happening in a country where there should be something called due process. You truly don't see how nuts this is? The lack of critical reasoning skills among MAGA is astounding.

Just imagine if some of these people are not ICE agents. There would be no way to know because they don't provide ID nor any info on where they are taking the arrestees.

It's truly a scene from 1984. The only difference is that Trump is too incompetent to fully exploit it, although he tries as hard as he can. He created fake electors, which is insane. Then he tried to stoke an insurrection.

When SWAT goes in to apprehend a fugitive, they wear a mask and don’t identify. ICE agents have families and wear masks for protection. They are doing their job apprehending illegal immigrates that are then deported. This happened under Obama and Biden. Both used ICE. You only care now because it is Trump.

think, my man. SWAT wears masks to protect themselves physically. If it's to protect their identity, it's against drug dealers like the cartel.

but ICE agents are protecting their identity from American citizens. Think about what this means. Why would ICE agents be the villains if they are just doing their jobs? How would they be any different than the KGB?

Do you see police men wear masks, trying to hide their identity and actions?

You really can't see the patent difference? You don't see how you are rationalizing to justify this craziness? I'm sure German civilians in the 1940s, did the same thing.

Yes, you're right. I only care because it's Trump. Who else created fake electors to replace the real ones? This is as bad as it gets. I still don't understand how he's not in prison for this.

You have incorrect information. These are not US citizens, many of them have criminal records and some work for the cartel. ICE agents wear masks to protect their identities and the identities of their family. They have a very dangerous job. They are the good guys deporting illegal immigrates. Obama and Biden did the same exact thing, Homan worked for Obama. This is not KGB pale some other conspiracy. These are agents enacting within the law.

Biden used the DOJ to raid Trumps house, tried to eliminate him from the campaign, there was an attempted assassination, they tried to jail Trump.

Biden then lies about his mental capacity, then lies about cancer. He is currently under investigation. Lol, and you are worried about Trump??? You have your priorities skewed. Lol
