Yeah right. Probably cancelling it because he doesn't want people to show up and ruin his dick-tator moment by protesting.

Then again Diaper Don doesn't like rain cleaning off his nasty orange makeup and getting in his rats nest.

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if he's more afraid of an embarassingly small crowd more than protestors.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

The crowd is going to be huge, it just isn't going to be supportive.

[–] dan1101@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That is exactly it, he is visualizing all the protestors lined up along the route.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago

There's a good chance that there will be more protesters than supporters. That would be beautiful.

[–] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's a scenario that could lead to absolute disaster(for them, it would be great for us)

National Guard, Protesters, Police, with the chance that the NG lays their arms down or side with the protesters?

They're shitting themselves nervous over it.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd be very surprised if anyone in uniform lays down arms and sides with protestors in this country.

I've been reading stories about people growing disillusioned with Trump for almost a decade now and yet nothing ever changes.

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There was a bit of a change on November 2020.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not amongst his supporters. More people voted for him in 2020 than 2016.

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Those who voted for Trump were fewer than those who voted for Biden.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I agree, but it's irrelevant to what I'm posting about. I understand that the military isn't a monolith and there are some anti-Trump people there, but those who wear basically any uniform (national guard, military, police, ice, etc.) are largely Trump supporters and, despite some whining, I have yet to see any indicator that they'll break with Trump.

I've been reading about cracks amongst his support for ten years and no major obstacles ever actually materialize.

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Biden's 4 years were kind of a major obstacle, and the 2018 mid-terms kind of got in the way.

November 2026 is just 17 months away, and if he tries something in 2028, there might be a lot of opposition, particularly if the economy continues to suffer.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Again, the subject is active duty military and national guard dropping their arms and joining the protestors.

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They should have thought about this before they volunteered.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What does that have to do with anything?

[–] DMCMNFIBFFF@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I'm not sure. I thought I'd just throw it in. The point is they serve the law and the President is the CoC, regardless who he is.

[–] P1nkman@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I believe he hasn't showered in years; he's cleaned with baby wipes by slaves, hence everyone saying he's so smelly.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He's smelly because of having a Depends full of liquid shit at all times.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

When he finally dies, they're gonna have to use an acetylene torch to cut the diaper(s) off (my understanding is that it became too difficult to peel the soiled diapers off so they started just stacking them on top). They'll have to count the layers to determine how long they've been like that.

Randy: "How can we tell how old a Donvict is, Mr. Leahy?"

Leahy: "Shit rings, Randy, shit rings"

Honestly, probably worried about a bunch of armed people being there possibly to exercise their oath.
