It's a huge mistake to jump from "all recent presidents have abused executive power in some way" (accurate and bad, and we shouldn't stand for it) to "they are all the same/their abuses are equally extreme/damaging" (incredibly ignorant and incorrect)

get the hell out of here with this "TDS" garbage. they literally just disenfranchised all the black voters in the south.

And Trump simps are real. I said continued fascism post-Trump.

Help me out, which major public company did the Obama administration take a material ownership stake in? Which media companies did George W pressure into putting toadies into key management and editorial positions?

I can't find those references, but perhaps the liberal media is hiding the truth?

> Sigh. Obama and Biden were as every bit "fascist" as Trump.

Absolutely not. There is huge difference in the their behaviors.

> But it's all Trump's fault is much more convenient.

It is not just Trumps fault. Trump is logical consequence of what conservative party became. J.D.Vance and Miller are as much fascists if not more. The whole party worked for this for years and created this.

> And Congress has proven over the last several decades that their oversight is rather meaningless for the goals of American voters rather than special interests.

Of course congress in general is not the place to stop republican party from their fascists goals, because republicans in the congress support Trump 100%. They stand by project 2025 100%. They are doing oversight all right when it comes to blocking democrats.

The idea that the party that made Trump big, promoted ideas he build on and created project 2025 is supposed to be counterbalance to itself is absurd.

Certainly Biden and Obama check off a few of the 14 points of Fascism, but are we really being serious here? "TDS" is just a thought terminating cliche.
