Might be a sign fediverse isn’t gaining momentum.

This was Trump’s playbook all along. And an old one that we’ve seen from authoritarian regimes.

If Trump had made this announcement in the morning, or the day before, this could have swung the election in favor of conservatives.

Yeah this screams recession.

If they weren’t, they wouldn’t have voted for you dumbass!

Oh yes do it AOC do it!

Oh that’s a weird a coincidence both happened under the same president!

Stage a false-flag operation. Declare martial law and suspend constitution. His loyal appointed chief of staff and republican controlled congress falls in line. Trump-appointed supreme court acquiesces. President till he dies on the throne.

I swear all he’s doing this is to distract the media attention!

The whole world needs to de risk from US companies. The right wing authoritarianism is here to stay.

He about to become a member of Trump’s cabinet.

Fucking commies. oh wait.

The only thing that stopped Trump the last time he ordered the military to open fire on American protesters (“Can’t you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?”) was the refusal by his then-defense secretary and top general to carry out his order.

God can’t save America. She is fucked.

At the Canadian liberal party leaders’ debate, the discussion was increased defense spending, but spending it domestically instead of buying US products. Europeans are likely thinking the same.

I didn’t even hear of this executive order. That just lays it out clearly all the steps he’s taking to seize power in the US undemocratically.

no no no. He’s the largest shareholder. Make him stay at Tesla until the stock is worth like other car companies.

This is such a burn! “Abramson noted, “It is also a particularly American disease to confuse wealth with intelligence and corporations with those who own them.”
