    I think he figures if he tears down a historic hospital for the mentally ill, they can’t ever put him in it.

                Cue*

                Edit: unless he’s talking about actually lining up multiple drone strikes, in which case queue is correct. Cue is used to indicate the start of something (from theater).

      If actual leftist take power these fascist will be held responsible for more than that.

      Unfortunately, it looks like we’re headed towards another liberal 4 years followed by an actual fascist with ideology and intelligence in the form of Tucker Carlson. Hell, if the midterms are bad we might even skip the 4 years of failed liberal rule.

        Tucker, Gavin, AOC, Vance… all bit players in an inevitable gravity well towards a known outcome. Everything is circling the drain towards a techno-fascist oligarchy as our principle system of rule for like, several decades at least before the system collapses from the weight of competing corporate agendas, AI psychosis and manipulation, and massive climate change leading to levels of human migration we’ve never seen in the modern world, combined with population collapse in huge urban centers from failing birth rates.

      According to the supreme court, only if we handle it ourselves. That’s not quite how they worded it, but I gather that was the ultimate result.

      The leading cause of death for Roman Emperors, and most rulers throughout history, was violent death, primarily assassination or execution, followed by suicide…

      You know, maybe we should consider this option more thoroughly.
