Despoil the Commons so a few Assholes get richer...

Attempt to Subvert the law to attain total control of the economy and all three branches of government...

Attempt to Use the Power of the State to Persecute private individuals that annoy him...

Trump is a Mad Dog.

He needs to be Put Down...

Politically Of Course.

We're a Nation of Laws, not Men.

Or are We?

Instead of paying farmers for food which could then be used to feed struggling Americans we are instead going to let some farmers fail while we have a sham bailout where most of the money goes to Big Agribiz.

We need that foo here because AOC and other dems have enlightened us to the fact that the only reason may are robbing stores ais because they need food...

MSgt,
You'd rather they rob the stores, so your boys can send them to prison.
That's a better outcome for you.
Poverty so extreme it causes a crime wave and justifies an authoritarian crackdown.
That's the plan, and you're all for it.
