Love how it's modeled after rome since that's what's gonna happen to us too

Don’t forget, he’ll have it fixed so good you won’t have to vote anymore.

Tacky as hell
At least Nazi Germany hired actual artists and designers to create stunning and awe inspiring designs and artwork using quality materials (and no I am not glorifying those monsters)
MAGA just go to the local print shop and skim off any premade imagery and use AI to mash it all together on the cheapest poster they can buy.
-
First time as tragedy, second time as farce.

(and no I am not glorifying those monsters)
You don't have to glorify their beliefs to admit they were fantastic at propaganda and aesthetics. Birth of a Nation was used in film schools for decades afterward for a reason and that reason wasn't that film schools were all secretly run by Nazis.

-
Just out of interest: how long do they honestly expect this idiot to live?
-
He can do 20 more years. Weekend at Bernies is also possible. No crazy scheme is off the table in today's America. Trump may also just be laying out the red carpet for some even crazier lunatic. Maybe hereditary dictatorship? Elon? Nothing is off the table at this point. Fuck me and the bleak possible future.
-
They will "transfer his conciousness" into one of Elon's bartender-bots. Pay no attention to the Afrikaans accent.
-

-
Do they need him to be alive?
They doin Warhammer 40k over there in a couple years
-
They'll do him up like Lenin
-
-
Once they force three terms onto Trump they can use whatever flimsy justification they have found to allow three terms for Vance or whoever they get to replace trump.
-
Given the last attempt failed prob a bit too long
-
Based on his observed mental decline, I don't think he will get to finish his current term.

Why it's missing a star? Directly printed from the ai prompt?
It's not that difficult to clone a star with modern software...
-
Where the fuck is Brutus when you need him?
-
Almost got hanged on jan 6
-
I hate that this works
-
-
-
If he is still alive in 2028 I am jumping out a window.
-
I have never met you or know anything about you, but I'd rather have you than DJT
-
well then you better hope DJT goes first i guess, because that statement does not meet the logical extent of that circumstance.

dont let the defenestration allegations hit you on the way out

Kill the maga red hat Nazi party.
There’s historical movies and documentaries about this.
-
The US constitution has amendments canceling amendments, more specifically the 21st repealing the 18th. Legally it is possible to repeal the 22nd, but the votes aren't there... yet.
The New Deal was so popular that FDR was elected to four terms. The 22nd amendment was a reaction to that.
-
I think you are bold to assume their plan involved repealing vs ignoring.
-
Exactly.
"they can't do that that's illegal"
Who's gonna stop them? The law ain't doing Jack FUCKING Shit. If there is no group or individual who is both willing and able to inflict consequences, THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES
-
-
They're ignoring the equal rights amendment. I don't think we'll see another amendment.
-
The ERA was made controversial. Any future amendment will likely be the product of catastrophe. I imagine if one happens it will be because we manage to get out of this current situation and need to prevent it in the future
-
-
-
The AI image really sends the fucking campiness. It's hard to imagine that fucking bozo even living to a third term. I'm honestly surprised he hasn't got sniped by atherosclerosis yet.
-
Few inches tho. Just a few inches. The hunter last season was terrible at the aim
-
He wasn't aiming at Trump. It was all for that photo OP
-
-
-
If he manufactures an emergency, then he can claim we need continuity of leadership. Hmmm, he wouldn't...
-
Similar to how he’s claiming Zelensky is a dictator for not having elections? I have a kettle that I’m about to paint black.
-
-
How many people actually want to support this vs just joking about it "to own the libs".
Not excusing either option. The joking option is just as bad as long as it looks like actual support. I just wanting to know how much of that support is genuine.
-
These people only tell jokes that are of the "punching down" variety. That makes them laugh. Stuff like this is wishful thinking, and it's always "bro, it was a prank" to dodge ownership of it.
That's how the party of personal responsibility works.
-
It's a joke until it's not. Same people that hurt your feelings and then say "I was just joking" when called out.
-
Let me speak from experience that there is no such thing as an ironic Nazi. Every single "bro, it's just a joke lol" is followed by a silent "...unless?"
-
Also makes me suspect that republicans have zero clue who they can run after The Donald. Why else would they even bother trying to mention having the guy in office after 2028? The methods to do that are either a constitutional amendment (they don't have anywhere near a big enough majority to get one through) or unconstitutional means (scary, but also way more work/trouble than running a competent candidate and winning a normal election). It would be way easier to start grooming the heir apparent if they had any clue who that was.
-
The Venn Diagram between people who actually support this and people who just want to own the libs is a circle.
-
Trump is giving these fucksticks exactly what they want. I assure you they want a third term.

I don't think we should start criticising people or movements for being un-american. It feels nice to use it against the fascist because you are hitting them where it hurts but it also normalizes the kind of nationalism they use to persecute oppressed groups.
Regardless of that idolizing Rome is actually very American. The Germans idolized it too. The west loves its empire
-
They don't even idolize the Roman Empire, they idolise a version of it that fits their views. Fascists always alter the past. Otherwise they would be having gay orgies 24/7.
-
I think it’s the “3rd term” bit specifically that is anti-USian, directly going against the two term limit written in the… constitution (?)
-
The US has always been an imperialist nation so this really is just a fitting crown that will mark the end of its long reign.

Project 2025 won so this is not too far off.

proper sub, that banner is indeed a shitpost

I’m trying to verify this sign was ACTUALLY that this event. What other evidence do we have?
-
Light it up. Napalm-like
-
Beware the Ides of March
-
Why don't we just wait and see if even these idiots want that in a few years? It's been a couple of weeks and it's already starting to look like most of the polling locations will be covered in rubble by 2028.

Reminder that march 15 is coming up.

I don't share your concerns and am not going to take the time to hunt down another one.
Regardless of the banner, the push is real, here's one article today and another from yesterday.

Quote from second article:
A new advocacy group, the Third Term Project — which has adopted a Caesar-like Trump image as its logo — is dedicated to upending the 22nd Amendment so that Trump can serve a third term.
