Sid Jones: There will be hell to pay if GOP becomes totalitarian

Nobody likes a sore loser...

There are so many reasons why your Party lost. If you are unable or unwilling to face facts, reason, or reality, that's on you.

Let's see where things are at in 4 years and if your side's predictions come to pass.

I seriously doubt it. Even Biden and Harris said they will be working toward a peaceful transition. Which is really weird if Trump is "Hitler" and an "Existential Threat".

As for being in a Cult, you may want to start some personal examination and inward reflection. It's never too late to work on your mental/psychological health.

Mikerins, when are you going to realize how indoctrinated you are? Everything you say is just a repeat of liberal media propaganda. They say it, and you believe it.

More than half of all Americans realize we were better off with Trump than Biden/Harris. If you think we are better off, you must like high inflation, high grocery and gas prices, high crime, high illegal invasion, high censorship, and don’t care about the 2nd Amendment. You must also believe in a race and sex-based society, rather than merit based. Everything you believe in goes against what this country was founded on. If you want socialism and censorship, maybe it’s time to go to another country and so we can fight to get our freedoms back.

Schools/colleges are not indoctrinating? You can’t really believe that. Maybe you don’t know the definition of indoctrination. It is the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs without questioning them. There is no debate in the liberal education system without criticism and consequence. Teaching kids that America is racist, teaching kids that they can be a different sex than their biological sex, teaching kids that socialism is better than capitalism, is all indoctrination because people get targeted for having a different view. They are taught this as fact, when it is opinion.

Why is it that kids go to college and turn out liberal? Maybe you should look into what is being taught. Hate for America. White people are racist, sexist, on and on.

If you pay attention, you will see that the liberal media has also been indoctrinating its viewers to have certain beliefs. Anyone who questions or opposes their narrative, like Trump does, gets called a racist, fascist, dictator, traitor, domestic terrorist, racist, sexist, etc.

Next time you watch liberal news channels, stop and see how all they do is push their agenda and promote lies about Trump and anyone who opposes their narrative. Why don’t you find record of Trump saying he wants a national abortion ban? You can’t find this because it’s all lies. Don’t tell me it isn’t unless you show me proof of where he said he will make a national abortion ban. This was a big, fat lie by democrats to get votes. Don’t you want a fair and balanced media, rather than media that only promotes a liberal agenda?

Look on Trump’s website to see what he stands for, rather than believe what is being pushed on you by the media. Maybe it’s time to start fact checking from the source, rather than believe what is being pushed as fact.

Most American's believe it is time to reverse course and get our freedoms back!

Oh, Mike, there you go again. I'm starting to feel sorry for you. It has to be hard watching all of your hyperbole, Party dogma, and belief system collapsing right before your eyes.

I am wondering, are you still in favor of removing the Filibuster or packing the SCOTUS.

How about those vote numbers? Pretty impressive. It does beg the question: Where did all those supposed Biden votes from 2020 go? Sure does make you question the legitimacy of that election, doesn't it?

Marince, for a MAGA cult member like yourself to try to call anyone else indoctrinated is insane. There's this thing called the Internet, and you can actually research facts on it from reliable sites that have solid reputations for providing factual information. You should give it a try instead of believing every lie Trump and the MAGA cult tells you.

More than half of Americans voted for Trump because they don't do the research necessary to get the facts. They voted against their own best interests, as Trump will do the same thing to them he did in his first term, screw them to give the 1% crowd more money, more tax breaks, and more influence, and squeeze the vanishing middle class even more.

If you knew anything about the current situation, you'd know we're in the best shape of any affluent country post-pandemic. We have the lowest inflation as well. Idiots try to compare the pre-pandemic Trump results with the post-pandemic Biden results, intelligent people look at Trump's "plan" and know the disaster that is to come. Tariffs and deportations will tank our economy. Unfortunately most Americans get their "information" from TikTok or Facebook, and so have been fed the stream of lies from Trump and culture war issues that aren't really issues, like CRT and post-birth abortion. Crime is significantly lower now than under Trump, so your mention of that also demonstrates your ignorance of the facts, along with your poor understanding of our economy.

You really want to whine about the 2nd Amendment? What? Guns everywhere, no controls, the NRA owning Congress, any common sense movement to try to reduce the out of control gun violence in our country fought tooth and nail by the NRA's lackeys in Congress? Not enough for you? How on Earth do you claim the 2nd Amendment (which has been twisted out of its intent by the NRA and the Supreme Court) is under some kind of attack? We can't even get the most benign progress towards some kind of handle on the gun violence like gun registration. I suppose you're fine with the staggering level of gun violence like no other country except an African nation that's almost constantly in a state of civil war, but sensible people aren't.

Trump is trying to censor anyone who doesn't agree with him, saying CBS should lose it's license because he didn't like a 60 minutes segment (because they actually interviewed him instead of serving up puffballs like his mouthpiece Fox network), and saying the special counsel (a Republican, by the way) should be forced to leave the country for doing his job investigating Trump's treasonous activities, mishandling of secret documents, and his clear obstruction of justice about them.

Your blathering recitation of MAGA lies and talking points doesn't hold up to any fact-checking or common sense. Whining about Socialism (and in many cases MAGA cult members mention Communism too) is just an ignorant dog whistle.

The founding fathers would have executed Trump for treason on multiple occasions. When he invited Ukraine to interfere with our elections, when he worked with Russia on the misinformation and disinformation that helped get him elected in 2016 and again this year (and they tried in 2020 too, as Putin has admitted publicly, but they probably didn't show that on Fox or NewsMax, so you may not know that), when he had a private meeting with the Russian foreign minister to get his new marching orders from Putin (in violation of national security protocols) and when he tried to overthrow the government. You apparently know as little about our founding fathers as you do about our economy or any other relevant political facts.

Your bleating about indoctrination is pure insanity and conspiracy theory.

First, schools aren't indoctrinating kids. What they've actually done is STOP indoctrinating them like they used to do. You know, go to church, believe in God, etc.

They're not teaching them America is racist, or that they should decide what gender they are, that socialism is better than capitalism, or CRT for that matter. These are all lies by right-wingers with no basis in fact.

They now teach kids to find their own beliefs, not follow someone else's, and how to take information in and evaluate it rationally. If you'd grown up in this system, you would know how to discern facts from the fictions you believe. Some of the kids come to different beliefs than would have been drummed into our heads in our day, and that's what the Right just can't stand. They want to go back to the days when women and minorities "knew their place", and white men had all the power. That's the most despicable thing of all about the MAGA movement. We all know it really means Make America White Again. It's the last-ditch effort by the old guard to hold onto a way of life that was never fair or just, but because it was to their advantage they're trying to hold onto it. Minorities, women, and the LGBT+ community members that voted for Trump have done themselves irreparable harm.

Why do kids go to college and come out liberal? DUH! Because they see the abuse that white men have heaped on every other group, they see the inherent unfairness, and they don't want to be a part of it.

It isn't indoctrination to show students the facts of our history. Have we been racist? Yes! Have our institutions been systemically racist? Yes! Are we working on that? Yes! Are we doing enough? No! Progress has been slow because of the aforementioned white men who are fighting to hold onto power they never deserved and never should have had.

When Trump says things that are racist, bigoted, fascist, etc., it's the media's job to call that out. Just like his crimes, the system is supposed to address them. It's not the media's fault that Trump says so many things that need to be called out, or the legal system's fault that he commits so many crimes, it's his. He brings everything on himself, then he and his cult followers whine about how he's persecuted. He's not persecuted, he's prosecuted, and he has no one to blame but himself.

I know this idea is foreign to you, but no matter who or what I read or watch, I fact-check it. So, when someone claims something I'm not familiar with, I pause my reading or watching, do some research, and find out if it's true or not. Of course, starting out on reliable fact-based sites (which you can verify on mediabiasfactcheck.com) is the first step. I can safely tell you Fox and NewsMax do not rate well on accuracy or factual content.

The Democrats were pushing Trump to answer the question of whether he'd support a national abortion ban, and even at the debate he refused to answer it. Given that, it was pretty obvious he didn't want to go on record as NOT supporting it. Now, that could have been because he didn't want to alienate his most insane far-right supporters and the evangelicals, or it could be that he knows he'd sign it if it came to him. He has flip-flopped so many times on abortion, I don't believe he has any actual position on it except whatever will attract the most voters.

Are you kidding? Go to Trump as a factual source? That's like going to Pravda for the truth about the Soviet government! Are you nuts? Go to the biggest liar the American political scene has ever seen for the facts? You have no idea what a factual source is apparently.

Most Americans don't take the time to educate themselves on the topics they should to get the representation they need, and voting for Trump is a perfect example of that.

How on Earth do you think you need to get freedoms back? What "freedoms" have you lost? Unless you're a woman of child bearing age, you haven't lost any rights during Biden's administration.

As I've told you before, get off the click-bait sites, stop getting your "information" from Fox and NewsMax, fact-check everything you hear, use mediabiasfactcheck.com to get an overview of sites so you'll know they're generally known for telling the truth, and you will be able to separate lies from facts, which you are clearly unable to do now.
