Has the United States become a dictatorship?

@jackson55 🙄. We are the non authoritarian side, remember?

@monte3 ummm. Check your history.

You think Obama wasn’t authoritarian? How about Kennedy and LBJ?

Both parties are guilty of this. The party line finger pointing is merely a symptom.

@JoeyFoxx Depends, the Democrats are two parties in all but name and even denounce each other.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow And the Republicans are... united?

Nearly every leading Republican denounced Trump as an embarrassment and a crazy person... then while taking each other down, got surprised when he got the party nomination.

The Republicans have 5 factions... the Democrats have 6.

Neither party has a consistent platform and they all tear each other down.

@JoeyFoxx if you establish people on the authoritarian to libertarian spectrum Republicans, particularly Trump supporters, are going to fall on the authoritarian end. As they say; Democrats fall in love Republicans fall in line.
(The above Rand Paul notwithstanding.)
And I would respectfully suggest that Obama taking firm decisive action is the same thing. Non authoritarians can make decisions too.

@JoeyFoxx I love to see your list of the five and six factions.
Republicans have the Rand Paul libertarians, the religious right 6 or 7 old fiscal conservatives hiding in a bunker somewhere. Not sure of the other two.
Hell I would say the Democrats have about an infinite number. As Will Rodgers said “ I am not part of an organized party, I am a Democrat”. @JoeyFoxx

@monte3 These Moronic Muppets calling themselves "democrats" now are not even remotely close to the democrat Will Rogers was. They aren't democrats at all, they have just hijacked the title.

@puck61 And 45 of of the 50 Republicans are hiding behind a contrived interpretation of the Constitution so they don't have to hold Bunker Boy accountable for staging an insurrection.

It's not that fucking hard.

If you actively support either party right now, you are not interested in what's good for the United States.

End of fucking story.

I need to use "fucking" more.. or find another word to indicate how disappointed I am in people.
