Under Trump:
Never being able to vote again.
Martial law instituted across the country denying people of their First Amendment rights.
The abandonment of our allies.
Loss of the US Dollar as the world’s reserve currency
Political assassinations across the board to insure those of the fascist party remain in power.
Loss of civil rights for those not white and rich
End of various government services designed to keep us safe from contaminated food, water, and air
End of various government services for Healthcare, social safety nets, veterans services.
Extra police funding and broad immunity for police violence
Far more restrictive laws
Backtracking of current progress such as cannabis, marriage equality, interracial marriage
Way way more people locked up because republican programs are hated across the board
Massive tax cuts for billionaires and the middle class finally being broken so we slide into a pseudo feudal system
Unions being outlawed because fascists love that shit.
Anyone of a skin color not the shade of pale parchment being rounded up, thrown in camps, or deported.
End of birthright citizens so you as well get to enjoy the concentration camps until they kill you or deport you (eventually they get to outright killing because they are Nazis. It’s what they do)
Did I mention not being able to vote, protest, or voice your opinions without being shot, poisoned, or assassinated?
My understanding is:
There were elections, no one paid any attention to them, the nazi party won a ton of seats and everyone went “WTF?”
Macron immediately called a snap election to give themselves a mulligan, did an all out media blitz to get people to pay attention, made a deal with the left wing where the centrists dropped out(they are unpopular), opening the door for the left wing to swoop in and save the day.
Kudos to him for a ballsy move to keep Nazis out of power.
