Jon Stewart would be put to death if Trump had his way. To quote Mort Goldman, "Save Jon Stewart, he's our most important Jew!"
“Don’t die for your beliefs. Make a fascist die for theirs.” - someone on here
Jon getting serious is kinda scary and rightfully so. He’s worried like the rest of us but likely has a better idea of what’s coming should Trump win. He’s a smart dude.
This is the story that we need to be focusing on until election day. None of the other stunts matter. If anything this post should be pinned. We should keep our eye on the ball even if the media won't.
Trump threatened to send the military and the national guard after people on the left and Democratic politicians. This is blatant and open fascism. In any other election Trump being openly fascist would be the October surprise. Everyone needs to see this.
As we all fucking should.
And he's quite right to point out that the media loves obsessing over the dumb shit (like Palmer's penis and McDonald's) and spends far less time running down real shit.
👆💯👆
I mean, yeah. He's literally threatening to kill us all.
Don't exaggerate. We dont know that he intends to kill us. Maybe the National Guard is only meant to maim or seriously injured us.
And it's not all either. He's only going to ~~kill~~ maim the Democrats. And black people. And brown people. And LGBT people. And women. And non-Christians. So, you know, as long as you're not in one of those groups, you'll be totally fine. For now. But maybe don't get too comfortable.
Not women, republicans need them to cook, clean and produce children.
As long as they aren't too mouthy and don't get any ideas about autonomy. So, things like driving, having a credit card or a bank account...nah. And birth control or abortion? Don't make me laugh.
So, just more than half the country, at least at first.
The Orange Turd is coming for anyone that stands against him.
Anyone see #UNTRUTH - the Psychology of Trumpism?
Oh, the guy that floated ingredient-to-bread ratio being more important than the election?
Get the fuck outta here.
Edit: This was the damn promo for his, then new, The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart podcast. I don't have a sense of humor about trivializing this shit.
