This has been my understanding since he started campaigning.

This is not at all the usual President. This is the dictator as President. The kind you cannot even, for one minute, trust at all not to drag us through a slo-mo coup. I see more people are really seeing and accepting that now, no matter how uncomfortable the notion is. It helps to be vigilant in that sense.

...and it's a rant about Obamacare and NOT having to work for healthcare. How all the lazy people think they deserve things, the new demotrats are pushing for this, blablabla

Interesting, so if SO many people LIKE not working, why are 40M unemployed freaking out now?

and yes, he gets off at the thought of riots... and how were we ever "great" like that? Is he talking about the 60's and stuff like Kent State?
