Trumpism is ‘a long-standing violence-and-intimidation generation machine’ – twitchy.com
It was a lackluster election night for the Right, but it was nothing less than a powerhouse in Florida, which went in big for Gov. Ron DeSantis, despite all the warning that his “Don’t Say Gay” agenda and “war” against Disney World was going to cost him dearly in November. He crushed Charlie Crist, not that that took much effort, but Florida turned out for DeSantis in a big way, pushing him to a double-digit win.
Is DeSantis running for president in 2024? Personally, this editor hopes so, and the Left obviously thinks so, because they’ve been trying their best to present him as a “mini-Trump.” He’s “Trump-adjacent.” Actually, he’s his own man.
Speaking of Donald Trump, Rolling Stone, which we’re surprised hasn’t been sued out of existence yet for fabricating stories, reports that Trump has been soliciting ideas for how he could imprison journalists if he takes the White House in 2024.

“A knowledgable source.”
Enter Condé Nast legal affairs editor Luke Zaleski, who informs us that “Trumpism” isn’t politics but “racism, fascism, and lies” combined to deteriorate societal stress points. Yeah, tell us something we haven’t heard.
trumpism isn’t politics. It’s a long-standing violence-and-intimidation generation machine. It’s racism, fascism, and lies combined to further fracture social divisions and deteriorate societal stress points.

What you are claiming is Trumpism has LITERALLY been the entire campaign strategy of the Democrat party since it was founded to protect slavery…

Your party champions violence and intimidation the MAGA phantom you pretend exists couldn’t DREAM of.
From Antifa and BLM, from the Summer of Love to CHAZ and the Scalise shooter and the kid killed because someone “thought” he might be MAGA, your party LOVES political violence. pic.twitter.com/IIxnk125Ge

You do know what you wrote is a lie, right? Nobody can be that clueless for it not to be a deliberate lie. Pathetic.

LOL. Trump broke your brain, bro. Be smarter.

Your vicious words and extreme views cause division and fuel hate.
Republicans have embraced me more than democrats have. Republicans care about family, God and the country. I don’t hear fascism or violence or any of the things you list in them but I hear and see it in you.— AmericanTink 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@LipstickTink) November 9, 2022

We would have given him bonus points had he left out the word “fascism” just to be different, but he couldn’t do it. This is the party that took a campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” and made it a bad thing. “America was never great,” all the liberals crowed on Twitter. You’ll never be happy, but you can be silent.

Editor’s Note: Republican voters deserve answers and accountability for the failed red wave.
