A Guide To A Trump Second Term

 

The Malignant Loser's 2024 campaign, a.k.a. the Revenge and Vitriol Tour, is promising some purely fascist policies in a second term, aimed at destroying his real and imaginary enemies, ripping up Dem programs no matter how popular or beneficial, allowing foreign adversaries (e.g., Russia) to dictate our foreign policy, and making sure our democracy ends under his feet. CNN has a useful synopsis of what the reckless sociopathic narcissist has in store for America. A few examples:

  • Trump has made immigration and the border a central campaign issue, successfully pressuring Republicans to reject a major bipartisan border deal last month and making a trip to the southern border on February 29, where he touted his previous hard-line immigration policies.
  • Last November, Trump promised to replace the Affordable Care Act, known colloquially as Obamacare, in a series of posts on Truth Social. A Trump-backed effort to repeal and replace Obamacare failed in 2017 after three Republicans senators joined with Democrats to vote against the bill.
  • Trump has promised to use the Department of Justice to attack critics and former allies. In several videos and speeches, the former president also laid out plans to gut the current justice system by firing “radical Marxist prosecutors that are destroying America.”
  • “I will take Biden’s executive order directing the federal government to target the firearms industry, and I will rip it up and throw it out on day one,” Trump said at the 2023 National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action leadership forum last April.

The entire list is, as you can imagine, reactionary and punitive to the extreme. And we didn't even mention his intent to sign a national ban on abortion, despite his lies to the contrary. Need any more reasons to deny this despicable criminal and his party a victory in November?
