What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

[HVC]

Great way to rally the people to the government.

I kind of hope Trump commits to fighting a war in Iran before he orders an attack on Greenland.

Just a tiny little bit dystopian. Great business opportunity, though.

Military drones are going to be deployed within the US?

Military drones are going to be deployed within the US?

No no. Just DHS and ICE drones.

With similar functionality, most likely. But you know...

Right CC don't be alarmist.  Military drones aren't being deployed in the interior of the US.  Just para-military drones.

Sure for the border, but not for the "interior"
You have to read the fine print with these mendacious fascists.

Sure for the border, but not for the "interior"

DHS has slowly been increasing the definition of "the border" since its founding.

Yes, both good points, you and vM.

Best way to defend the border is to defend the area immediately behind the border. And the best way to defend that area is to defend the area behind it. And so on, ad infinitum

Plus, every airport is a mini-border, so add territory around each of those.

Lots of talk about security and safety by the regime, what did American luminaries have to say about that back in the day :

"The most famous quote on security and freedom is by Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety". Other notable quotes include Abraham Lincoln saying, "Those who are ready to sacrifice freedom for security ultimately will lose both," and Thomas Jefferson stating, "When you abandon freedom to achieve security, you lose both and deserve neither.""

It seems odd that so many Americans have forgotten these wise words.

Yeah, but the only brown people they had to deal with were slaves, so what do they know.
