In an interview hosted by Politico, the California governor said the US must ‘wake up’ to the the threat posed by the president’s disregard of democratic norms
Donald Trump is gravely serious about running for a third term in violation of the US constitution, California governor Gavin Newsom said on Wednesday, warning Americans to “wake up” to what he described as the president’s flagrant disregard for democratic norms.
“I don’t think Donald Trump wants another election,” Newsom, a Democrat, said during a live interview at a summit hosted by Politico in Sacramento. “This guy doesn’t believe in free, fair elections.”
Newsom, who has gained national attention in recent weeks for his merciless trolling of Trump online and who is widely considered a presidential contender, said he had a stack of two dozen “Trump 2028” hats sent to him by the president’s supporters.
There is a wave of pushback across Lemmy from cynical dipshits pushing back on people trying to mobilize and more and more I’m thinking the site has its own, unfunded psy-op going on.
I don’t think it’s organized or funded because I don’t think anyone takes the people here seriously or thinks this kind of place will help at all with any actual movements, and I am in agreement.
(You, I’m talking about you, you’re one of the cynical dipshits who are not a threat to anyone and just exist to sound snide and say “no u” when someone tries to get people actually mobilized.)
I’ve yet to see anyone try actual mobilization. Mostly, I read vaguely phrased “Someone should do something (violent[?])” posts, followed by “I don’t want to get in trouble so I can’t say anything further” or “Shut up, you haven’t done anything either”.
Nobody posting on Lemmy is a threat.
You sound like a psy-op
How about this. I have been wanting to start an anti-fascist group called the White Rose. Are you interested?
