Donald Trump has said that he will not become a dictator if he becomes US president again except “on day one”, after warnings from Democrats and some Republicans that the US was in danger of becoming an autocracy if he wins the 2024 election. Fuck, well at least he’s honest on this statement

      Because America isn’t a country, it’s a bunch of corporations in a trenchcoat.

      Literally. America started as the Massachusetts Bay Company, the Virginia Company, the Plymouth Company, Hudson’s Bay Company, the Ohio Company, etc. The Constitution is a corporate charter, voting rights were originally limited to company stake holders, it’s all office politics.

      Because America let’s a lot of things fly to see if it works, kind of like rolling dice at a casino. Just not at a trump casino
