Donny likes to Fuck Shit up and Authorizes the Deployment of the National Guard
Analysis of National Guard Deployment to Los Angeles
Assault on Democracy Authoritarian RiskRationale
The deployment of National Guard troops in response to protests can be seen as militarizing the government's response to dissent. This action risks normalizing the use of military force against civilians, which is a significant step towards authoritarianism. It is viewed as an effort to intimidate protesters and undermine their right to assemble, thus threatening democratic norms.
It's all going tits up right now for Donny. It turns out not everyone actually thinks him and his ICE goons are doing great work. So peaceful protests have been taking place in LA because they're in full fucking facist mode and need to be told to fuck off.
What's a sensible way to respond to this? Hmm, that's a tough one. I mean what you would never do, and what no president before King Donny has ever done before, is mobilise the national guard to squash the shit out of those pesky protesters. Donny, the petulant fuckwit that he is had this to say on his shitty app:
As Gavin Newsom repeatedly pointed out, there was absolutely zero need or benefit to doing this. It was being handled quite well by local law enforcement, and sending in the troops was only going to "escalate tensions" and was "purposefully inflammatory".
No shit.
With Clowns as the helm this is how entirely avoidable shit goes down. Donny is both an incompetent clown and a dictator wannabe. Sec Defense Pete Hegseth is also an incompetent moron who has also threatened to send active duty marines. Let's send the lot, maybe nuke LA to send a message?
If this is all a terrible dream, as it's too fucked up for reality, wake me up now.
Donny formally ends his Bromance with Ego Musk
Trump's Threat Against Musk and Democratic Support
Assault on Democracy Authoritarian RiskRationale
The threat against Musk and implications for supporting Democratic candidates exemplify an authoritarian approach where dissent is targeted, and loyalty to a single political faction is demanded. This action seeks to delegitimize opposition and consolidates power by attacking those who may financially support political opponents.
Donny has formally severed ties with his billionaire best bud, Ego Musk. Following the public fallout earlier in the week, when asked if his relationship with The Space Führer was over, Donny replied with:
"I would assume so, yeah," He replied "No" when asked if he wished to kiss and make up.
Donny went on to make threats of "Serious consequences" if Elon dared use his considerable wealth to sponsor Democratic candidates. Because in his demented mind that's a perfectly normal thing for a president to do.
Donny then really hit where it hurts and said he's going to sell his Tesla. Good one Donny, that'll really show him you fucking cretin.
DJ Vancey crawls out From under his Rock
Political chameleon DJ Vancey popped out from wherever he's been hiding yesterday to respond to the Big Beautiful Bustup between Donny and Ego Musk.
Behind closed doors he was probably hopeful Elon's coup and calls for impeachment might come to something, but as those hopes went nowhere, the vice president decided to hedge his bets by downplaying Musk's attacks as the actions of an "emotional guy" who got frustrated.
If by emotional you mean "high as a kite", then yeah probably.
