The American people voted for this man in a free and fair election. No subjugation or subversion needed.

This man did not say he was going to bomb anything until after he was voted in, so the American people were - once again - completely duped by their own hubris.

A third of the American people voted for him, based on a campaign which promised a completely different economy than he has delivered (remember when people were pretending Biden had an egg-price level in the Oval Office?) and no foreign wars. It is unreasonable to look at that election and say a plurality voted for this.

Americans voted for a man who promised no foreign wars and, in his first term, was relatively peaceful [1].

The entire media apparatus is owned by oligarchs: from Fox News to Twitter to Meta, now CNN... All are relaying non-stop right-wing propaganda. There can be no real democracy while information is this captive.
