    Fear works. As long as you tell people they are in danger, they can be easily manipulated.

    “It was very easy, it has nothing to do with Nazism, it has something to do with human nature. You can do it in a Nazi, socialist, communist regime, in a monarchy and even in a democracy. The only thing that needs to be done to enslave people is to scare them. If you manage to find a way to scare people, you can make them do what you want.” - Hermann Goering

    “voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country." - Hermann Goering

    I meant what I said. What happened on Jan-6 and before it, is proof of what Trump tried to do in order to overturn Democratic elections results. That happened, so it's a matter of fact.

    Now we have him talking about nuclear wars, and US looking like war zone, and how immigrants will kill you and won't even remember doing it. That's the kind of fear campaign Goering was talking about, because that's how he operated in 1930s.

    So far only Donald Trump has tried to stay in power after losing elections. Had he succeeded, he would have been the 1st dictator this country has seen.

    You mean you haven't seen the videos of what he's talking about? Or read the news reports?
    You really gotta broaden what you allow yourself to see and read.

    No, I didn't mean something else. I meant what I said.

    With the prosperity that his $192,000/year base retirement pay guarantees, it's easy for former 4-star Gen. Milley to make comments like that. Very courageous.... :roll:

    I see no connection between his comment and his retirement salary, which he earned by serving this country for over 30 years.

    The MAGA were there to prevent Trump from losing power even though he had lost the election.

    This is the very basis of a dictatorship.

    They all supported it. They all supported having Trump appointed as President despite losing the election. All of them.

    Being idiots who support a dictator because they lobotomized themselves to the point that they believed his dumber than dog **** lies doesn't mean they don't support a dictatorship.

    Who led them to believe that the election had been stolen?

    The same fascist who tried to keep himself in power.

    History will record that Trump has tried everything to tip this country into authoritarianism, and that's what he'll do if he wins in November.

    People who have worked with Trump sounding the alarm is practically a part of life now. But narrative Trump is so much more appealing than real-life Trump so, there he is again.

    Then you're not aware of the criminal gangs allowed to enter illegally under Biden/Harris and what they've been doing?
    That's a helluva thing to admit.

    Why is this current events? The desperation of leftist with what supposedly is news these days is getting weird. Who cares what one man's opinion is? Do leftist let others determine who they vote for? Oh yeah, I almost forgot Taylor Swift.

    So you're a Cheney family fan all of a sudden?
    Why do you think Liz turned on Trump?
    Could be why Milley did too.
    You like their reason?
    Do you even know their reason?
