TRUMP is seriously dangerous

[JackRiddler]

something odd is going on:

On Thursday night, MSNBC’s signal abruptly froze during a broadcast of Hardball with Chris Matthews and repeated the word “Russia” over and over.

As Mediaite.com reported, the broadcast froze just as Washington Post columnist David Ignatius was saying the word “Russia,” which was repeated over and over during the freeze.

On Thursday, C-SPAN’s broadcast of proceedings in the U.S. House of Representatives got bumped off the air during an anti-Trump speech by Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA). C-SPAN’s signal was replaced by approximately 10 minutes of programming from Russia Today, the English language cable network owned by the Russian government.

C-SPAN blamed “an internal routing error” for the glitch in an afternoon statement.

Mediaite also said that on Thursday, “(T)he lights mysteriously went out during the confirmation hearing for Rep. Mike Pompeo (R-Kan.) while he was being vetted by the Senate Intelligence Committee.”

The topic of conversation during the temporary blackout was the role Russian hackers may have played in the outcome of the 2016 U.S. election.

Well, Drew, assuming this is not a coincidental sequence of unrelated accidents, which I do not actually, what do you possibly think is going on? Because there's one thing this definitely is not, and another thing this very likely is.

Jesus, they got you so Democrats will be dancing in the streets when it's President Pence, which is going to mean the same outrages, the same round-ups and Muslim registry, but a quiet, unified, total dismantling of the public sector, all labor rights, all women's rights, etc., plus (bonus!) an unimpeded insane confrontation with Russia and Iran. Hooray!

Careful, Drew. You might get jumped all over like I did by a couple members here. I was more kind though and was only "reporting" or something on the "mood" on other sites. Much as you said. I don't give a fuck what happens to him. Pence and his evangelical bent I think can be handled way more sanely. But maybe not. Like everyone else I have no idea what the fuck is going on. There have been calls to boycott the ingratinuacion, but I will watch because I want to see what sort of lunatics are in the crowd. I read somewhere that Obama got 200k at his inauguration. Supposedly they are only expecting 20k for trump. That's what I read today and forget where.

I came here to post that news about General Schwartz's removal at 12:01pm on the 20th Pufpuf93.

What exactly does that mean? What's the worst-case scenario, and is it what I imagine? That people are envisioning some immediate martial law orders carried out on the marchers?

Yeah, the TV boycott is a hell of a way to live out one's powerlessness. One thing if you go to the mountains or do something wonderful and worthwhile, but to make an act out of merely not watching the thing you oppose while it happens, and then to pretend this was some enlightened act of opposition? Well, whatevs. GO TO WASHINGTON AND RAISE HELL. That's opposition. And just one of hundreds of options for things to do. And if you don't do this, and if you're just fucking interested in seeing what the fuck is going to happen, you have my special dispensation to watch the fuck out of it.

Politically the Pence-Tea Party congress combo differs from the Trump-Tea Party Congress combo on absolutely nothing except, apparently, that they will reliably make an enemy of Russia. An illusion to think otherwise. They will deport, make registries, insert vaginal probes, burn the planet, blow shit up, plunder what they can, unleash the coppers and spooks, keep persecuting for weed, imprison, violate, privatize everything, deregulate every corporation, untax the rich, fuck the poor, fuck the workers, bomb some more shit, and Christianize every fucking thing they can. Trump didn't create this new fascism in America, he has merely harnessed it for a moment and helped it to a new level. He's disposable, like his products and businesses and wives.

Who will replace Schwartz is what I want to know. The DC National Guard is a bit different from the other branches of the Guard. D.C. Itself is kinda different from the rest of the 50 states. What are the implications?

Immediate launch or contingency prep?

It's pretty disturbing.

I am in Washington, Jack.

I am in Washington, Jack.

Since when? Because of this?

Or are you just making a kid's geography class joke?

[MacCruiskeen]

Notice that his desperation to fire immediately everyone appointed by Obama does not extend to the FBI. Interesting.

I think we're looking at a Hitler style takeover. In a year this country will be unrecognizable.

Low intensity civil war is likely, I for one am not willing to go along with one inch of this.

I have zero effective representation in the federal government, less than a third of the population actually voted for this shit wad.

EXPECT WAR

Drew, do you mean civil war or war with some other nation?

So far his actions are beyond the pale of normal acceptability.

By "his actions", what do you mean exactly? When he called the corporate media a bunch of liars he was stating no more than the truth. If he removes people from office (including generals) who are likely to oppose his inauguration by all means necessary then he is merely doing his utmost to avoid a JFK-in-Dallas scenario, which he has good reason to fear.

Things being as deranged as they are, I suppose I have to go out of my way here to state explicitly that I do not support Donald Trump. Ffs, the mere fact that he is a property magnate is already enough to make him unworthy of public office.

Things are likely to go full scale bat shit crazy.

Things are already full scale bat shit crazy. For instance, lots of Americans are just yearning to see Trump assassinated before he even takes office. You think I`m exaggerating?

This illegitimate treasonous piece of human garbage needs to hang from the nearest light pole asap.

That`s one possible assassination method, yes. A trained Army sharpshooter strikes me a more likely option, though. It`s the American Way, after all.

[MacCruiskeen]

Or the assassin might well turn out to be a deranged Clintonian Liberal. "She slipped through tight security, somehow ... luckily, we shot her dead immediately after the dirty deed."

Martial Law, a state funeral, a month of national mourning, and President Pence steps up to ensure Continuity of Government. (By this time, war with Russia has of course already started, as long-since planned.)

stop this assassination talk ..IT IS FUCKING STUPID AND DANGEROUS

NO ONE HERE WANTS ANYONE ASSASSINATED .....

JUST CUT OUT THE BULLSHIT

[Luther Blissett]

High of 58º in DC on the 20th.

I'm helping organize a large-scale protest in my city though so I am no longer going to DC.

Trump gets to pick the head of the DC National Guard for the day of the protests


don't know if he has to be confirmed by congress..... trying to find out

It is reminiscent of the Secret Serviceman guarding Kennedy being told to stand down, including their baffled reactions.
