I would feel very isolated without these two things - they are my lifelines to sanity.
First of all, regardless of what you think, DU is really not important enough for Trump to want to shut down. Hate to disappoint you, but it just isn't.

Second, which side wants to shut down Rush Limbaugh, "Faux Noise," etc? Because--you think the First Amendment only applies to YOUR side.

Third, if your "lifelines to sanity" are MSNBC and DU, you are seriously screwed.

Do you have proof that President Donald Trump is going to shut down DU, MSNBC, etc?  :tinfoil: :tinfoil2: :lost:

Why on Earth would Orange Man shut down an insignificant website of a couple thousand lunatics and a network that is the equivalent laughingstock?  It would deprive those of us critical thinkers crap to laugh at.

the fact that he hasn't shut down DU, messnbc or any other left leaning Trump hating media site goes against you DUmmies who keep insisting that he is a dictator.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

Why would Trump shut down two campaign ad material sources?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

14. I guess that begs the question of how far down the line will he go for revenge?

The Brown Shirts are already being deployed in sanctuary cities - the same thing that happened in Germany while all watched Hiller change history. We’re seeing it happen, but it’s just another daily scandal so we don’t pay too much attention.

How far down the list will he go? Be careful of what you say. Be careful of what you do, because if what’s his name gets re-elected, the next phase will unfold.

Let’s all do our job NOW. Our country needs our participation, not apathy. This election is the ball game.

The second term is when the next phase unfolds.  Who do the primitives hope to fool with that kind of  fear mongering?  Besides their own pathetic selves, the only people who read DU are people who point and laugh at them.

I just laughed so hard that a little bit of pee came out.

I'm getting old I guess.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

 :lmao:  He's not on your radar, you self-important idiots!  If you were, he'd have made fun of you at a rally.  This is what happens when you live in a bubble.  Just like when you babble amongst yourselves "I know!  Let's eliminate the electoral college!"   :rotf:

DU is more likely to shut down from all those bannings and purges than President Donald Trump shutting DU down.
