Miller was a senior adviser in Trump’s first term and has been a central figure in many of his policy decisions, notably his move to separate thousands of immigrant families as a deterrence program in 2018. Miller helped craft many of Trump’s hard-line speeches and plans on immigration.
What do the “Trump won’t actually be that bad” people that I’ve been seeing on Lemmy in the last few days have to say about this?
“Um, aktually, this is business as usual for the United Snakes of Amerikkka.”
I haven’t seen that one yet, but I won’t be surprised, since this is the “both parties are the same” crowd.
One of them actually said yes to me not too long ago when I asked if Hillary Clinton would have picked SCOTUS justices that would have struck down Roe v. Wade. That’s how invested they are in this nonsense.
Right now though, they seem to be focused on “Harris lost because she ran a bad campaign and it doesn’t matter that I helped enable fascism by not voting for her because I share none of the responsibility or blame” and “Trump won’t be that bad because he just lies all the time.”
That’s the majority of them all right, but don’t forget the accelerationists that hope a Marxist-Leninist system will rise from the ashes. The ones who don’t realize the damper the associated climate change acceleration will have on their plans.
Would those be the same ones that say that, despite the stock market and the private property and all the billionaires, China is a communist country because you have to go through capitalism to get to communism? They amuse me.
For the first time I read this as “Americ-kuh-kuh-kuh”
He was in a pretty good band?

Sorry, I had to
Well, gotta burn this account to the ground! I’ma see you all under a new moniker!
Incidentally, other than Jet Airliner, which was a cover, I have noticed that none of the Steve Miller Band’s songs make a lick of sense.
Apparently all Steve Millers suck lol
You don’t have to like his music, but Steve Miller of the Steve Miller Band is one of the realest dudes in the music industry.
Yeah, and also his music is awesome. It makes no sense (like I said) but it’s awesome.
My manager when I worked at the sweet factory at the mall when I was a teenager, would play that fucking album over and over and over and over and over. I can’t listen to that shit ever again. On the plus side, he let me take as much candy as I liked anytime which in hindsight was probably not very good for me, but at least back then I could metabolize fucking anything.
That’s good to hear, but I definitely don’t like his music.
This is how I know aggressive instance bans for bigotry work: I haven’t seen any of that. Sincere condolences to everyone who has to see the open sewer.
“Whose Steven Miller?”
I haven’t seen anybody say that so far.
Something, something, land doesn’t vote…
And that people live in cities.
I wonder what he will have to do before Americans are willing to admit that he is a fascist.
Lucky you.
Edit: Also, see the comment from tal below.
There’s been a few. Not many. They seem like they’re the type that’s just in denial, not maliciously trying to smokescreen his ill intent.
Yeah that’s what it seems like to me.
They are Stephen Miller fans.
Don’t forget they’ll all be fired for gross incompetence after a month or so

It’s a pity that Dondalph Shitler didn’t spend time in prison, he could have written Mein Kräp.

Only the best and brightest. Out of all of the turds in the bowl, he really stands out. What a gigantic piece of crap.
Like the cream of the crop, the loftiest turds float to the top.
Elon Musk is paying his salary…in hair plugs
Anyone else here who had to do a double take, twice, at the headline, wondering why Trump would need a chief of police?

I would comfortably bet my life that this man is a sexual sadist who would tear up if he were tutted at by an elderly bus driver for trying to pay a $1.30 fare with a ten dollar bill.
Thanks, Harris. If you had run a better campaign, then I wouldn’t have had to vote for Trump.
I think this is intended as satirical but given the multitude of illogical reasons some give for supporting Trump it’s hard to tell.
Yes, satirical. Which is different from rage bait by intent, but Poe’s Law got me again.
We really should make using “/s” or “/j” a thing here
Weak rage bait
Nah, you’re too stupid if that’s why you didn’t vote for her.
this is an insult to the concept of stupidity
