Mussolini created a cult of personality. He had his own army of violent thugs, the Blackshirts, who swore an oath to him. No criticism of Mussolini was allowed and antifascists were arrested, imprisoned or murdered. Eventually of course the people turned on him and he met his violent demise.

IS all this simply because:
Trump's mother didn't love him;
Stephen Miller was bullied in high school;
Elon Musk has a transgender daughter?

I told you it was Miller. The orange gas bag is just a deflated demented puppet with Miller's hand up his ass.

There will never be free elections or democracy in this country ever again.

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

In order to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, surely the recipient should care about the peace more than the prize?

It's just so nonsensical but meant to stir up hatred.

Am I the only one who found this moment theatrical, echoing the moment Bush was notified on 9/11?

Moment Rubio whispered in Trump's ear and handed him a note.

I certainly hope not. I like to think some sanity remains in a few places in the world.

He’s a petulant orange child, potentially throwing a tantrum because he hasn’t got his way - very reminiscent of Hitlers stimulant abuse induced behavior 🤔

If I hear Trump say "They want transgender for everyone" again, I'm flying to Washington to slap him personally.

'It's likely that Miller, a master manipulator lurking furtively behind the despot’s throne, frequently uses the word “insurrection” about Trump’s opponents to lodge it deep in Trump’s brain stem.'

Even if the Israeli ceasefire deal is legitimate, Netanyahu and other Trump vassals have managed to give it the look of a political stunt on the eve of the Nobel Peace Prize being announced.
