Terminology is telling here. “Slitting a throat” is an act of murder and stealth, used to kill an unsuspecting victim with premeditation. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a presidential candidate use the term, although there’s been plenty of violent rhetoric over the years.
There a reason for that - it’s a coward’s way to kill. The fact that Ronnie drops it like it’s a normal fantasy of violence (like punching an asshole, or shooting an intruder) speaks to a deep, underlying pathology. This is a man who lionizes deceit and cruelty. I wouldn’t want him looking after my goldfish, much less my children or my country.
Worse than Trump, you say?
Why do all these pandering fascists assume the deep state is left-leaning? Dark money comes from conservatives who really only care about tax code.
The pandering fascists know that the deep state is not left leaning. They lie because gullible fascists who are pandered to will believe nearly anything negative about their enemies.
Fascists across the world attack institutions, because institutions enforce norms, and norms keep them from consolidating power. It’s one thing all fascist factions have in common.
I don’t understand how there’s no system in place to stop a governor from turning into a mini Hitler.
How is this guy allowed to run his state like this, and say these insane things? How is he allowed to run for president??? The US system is a fucking embarrassment.
