Where were our elections in 1939-1945? Was Churchill a dictator then? Missed that history lesson.

you can disagree ideologically about the republican laws governing reproductive health, but you absolutely DONT get to pretend the consequences don't exist.

If you support the legislature you have to know the consequences of it, don't be an ostrich.

That’s bollocks. The Ukrainian constitution allows for elections to be suspended during an invasion, just as the UK’s did 80 years ago.

Ok well that is presumably the reason but let’s see what happened once is all over with the war.

We can’t keep giving billions to Ukraine,which according to trump,billions have gone ‘missing’,we are all poorer because of it,it’s a war they can’t win unless we put boots on the ground,we can’t do that either.

Exactly! Also, is Zelensky still that popular within their country
What is the solution?

What do you mean @dottiehens ?

Honestly the absolute tripe that is spouted on these threads is staggering in the days of the WWW.

Facts, appreciate Trump supporters aren’t keen on hard facts

Well as I said that is the reason he is being called a dictator. Whether he is abusing martial law or not we will see later.

JaneAustensKitty · 20/02/2025 07:40

He’s not being called a dictator though is he, only now is that rhetoric being spewed out by the orange clown 🤡 newly installed in the White House.

Omg read the thread someone asked why Trump was calling him a dictator. You are so ready to insult anyone about being a Trump supported at least follow the thread.

What are you on about? Give some actual examples of women being forced to birth Babies against their will. You won’t be able to because you have been filled with lies from the left.
Also you really shouldn’t weaponise the suicide of a child. Suicide is always multi faceted, it’s not appropriate to pretend this is trumps fault.

You are the worst kind of human being because you know exactly what you are supporting. You know that women and girls have died for want of abortions. You know that women and girls have birthed their rapists' babies for want of abortions. And if you weren't aware of Jocelynn Rojo Carranza then a very cursory Google would tell you everything. But you don't care about women and girls; you pretend you don't understand or see what's happening because you follow Trump like a cult member and there's nothing he could say or do that would change your mind.

Well you are going to have to suck it up for a while longer. Trump has a clear mandate so just be busy everyday trying to shame Trumpers. You will only be damaging your own mental health. Real Trumpers are very happy and celebrating themselves. Other people just like to analysed beyond name calling and alll that.

JaneAustensKitty · 20/02/2025 07:56

His support from his fellow republican politicians is not guaranteed to endure his 🦇 💩, tearing up the rule book style of ‘leadership’.

He isn’t beyond impeachment.

Yes ! This, along with a huge dollop of self righteousness from the left is what delivered Brexit in the end.

I find it hilarious that the left failing to listen and understand the (sometimes racist) concerns of the right is what actually helped the Brexit campaign.

"Trumpers"? "Suck it up"? This isn't a football match where we all pick our favourite team for superficial reasons and then taunt the other side. For God's sake, there are millions upon millions of lives at stake. World peace is at stake. If you want to take it to the extreme, actual human civilization is at stake.
People have no business voting if they can't treat it with the seriousness it deserves. It's not a game.

I care about women and girls. I care about Clementine Breen, Chloe Cole, Elle Palmer, Laura Becker, Prisha Moseley, and many others like them. Who is this “we”? Are you not enough? Do you need your mob to back you? I see you.
Of course women and girls can get an abortion in their neighbouring states. That’s really not a big deal.
Mastectomies, hysterectomies, phalloplasties that don’t work, a lifetime of urinary incontinence and double incontinence are much more difficult challenges.

Ooooh perfect example. Implying that because someone voted for Trump they didn’t take voting seriously and shouldn’t be allowed to. This echo chamber the left love to exist in does nothing for intelligent debate.

What happens if a woman is seriously ill with an ectopic pregnancy and can't travel to the neighbouring state? Is that a big deal?

That's not what I said. You have completely fabricated an argument to suit your agenda.

What I said was that using silly nicknames like "Trumper" and gleefully telling people to "suck it up" is not treating politics with the grave seriousness it deserves and that people who approach it in this way should not vote.

Interesting that you appear to recognise that behaviour in the Right, though. Anecdotally I would agree that it's more often a marker of a particular subset of Right wing "fans" but I do also see the same from parts of the Left on occasion.

Treatment for ectopic pregnancy is not banned. No need to travel.

they listen to his sound bite politics as it gives them a sense that they are in control

I think this, he appeals to the little man with his fragile ego and puffed out racist chest.
He is a stooge as was Biden. We don't know the half of it, we never did.
