He adamantly crushes demands to rename military bases in the South named after confederate generals. Why make such a big deal out of this? I admit I didn't even know who they were named after. But why make a fuss and why not just go along with the trend?

And when people in Seattle take over an area outside a police station and occupy it and announce they are turning it into a community center, Mr. Drump jumps in and says to Seattle, get rid of these people or I will do it for you. Despite the criticism he got from his own and other former generals about such rhetoric, he does not apologize but doubles down. Meanwhile he tweets his disdain for those who criticized him. Nothing unusual there.

And he does not agree with taking away criminal immunity from police, even though that is a principle roadblock in the way of reform.

I'm sure there are other examples of Trump double-downs, but those are what come to mind.

What's the difference between the blue ilk of today and the Nazi's and the Bolshevik's '(blue ilk) of old? You better be careful about who and what you support and promote these days. As I've mentioned, gunning down a bunch of fascists and communists ain't going to be a problem with today's American right.   Do you know any Democrats who are DUMB enough to fight or die for you or them  these days? I don't really care if you redistribute police funding to them and end up losing the bulk of your police force. I mean, the liberals are pretty much fucked already and liberals fucking themselves more makes sense to all of us at this point.

Another example of Trump doubling down on his repression is his tweet passing on a conspiracy theory based on some random blog post that Martin Gugino, pushed to the ground by Buffalo police during a peaceful protest, was an antifa provacateur.

Speaking of losing police, 57 of those dupes on the Buffalo force resigned when the thugs who pushed Gugino were arrested for assault. Good riddance. Meanwhile the mayor supports police reform and justice. But why were those cops out there in the first place pushing people around?

The support for your thug fake president who supports your war on the people is declining these days, and his generals won't support the coup that your fake president is planning. And your right-wing is un-American.
