Would you support a denazification type program if we return to power?

Trump and prominent members of his circle would be brought before tribunals and face long prison sentences, the Republican Party would be banned, Trump supporters would be prohibited from holding positions in the civil service and running for office, putting up pro-Trump signs or posting pro-Trump messages on social media would be a criminal offence, set up camps to detain Trump supporters where they could be reeducated, pro Trump news outlets would be shut down etc., etc..

On the contrary; I think I'd actually find such an exercise ...cathartic.

If you return to power, what you're suggesting would be just about the fastest way to find yourselves back out of power.

I think they should make it part of their platform if they're so certain the "majority" of Americans hate DJT.  Put their money where their mouth is, so to speak.

It’s really disgusting how they think they say that they’re so inclusive and passionate on all they are is Nazis in disguise. They’re more worried about illegal aliens, drug dealers murderers than anything and they hate American people that work for a living and give up their hard earned money to the government that just pisses it away. It’s disgusting how they go to bat for murderers like that black kid stabbed an innocent white kid for no reason he went to a school track meet armed with a deadly weapon.

one would have to go by public statements, posts on social media, stickers on vehicles, signs in the yard and such.

I imagine the FBI could hack websites like Free Republic and find the real identity of that site's members.

For the love of God, we cannot allow these loathsome creatures to gain power.

     As frustrating as it is, these people are all in their 60's at a minimum and could barely hold an instrument of death up for long enough to point it. Leave aside the instruments of death pointing back at them. They brag about their mental illnesses and whine about being low on funds. Let them have their fantasies. The spare few that would have the moxie to try unilaterally suspending the Constitution by force will be good examples for the rest.

The DUmmie is probably calling people (s)he disagrees with by using the WW2 term coined in the US for the post-war process of removing Nazi ideology from German and Austrian society. The Soviets used the term post-war as cover for Sovietizing Eastern European nation.

It's typical Prog demonization tactics, fellow kulaks.

I think they do. I really don’t think they have the capacity to understand what they could unleash.

Trump and prominent members of his circle would be brought before tribun

 they really can’t wait to return to power, all they want is power over everyone else to push their far left progressive ideology, even if it is based on fantasy and a way to ruin the country.

They can get some of their Hollyweird buddies to design, some cool uniforms brown, or dark gray with Jack boots and maybe even a cool armband in red with a symbol in it to show who they are when they come to take you away because you don’t think the same as they do.

I hope to God they never get back in power.

They've always been psychotic wannabe tyrants, who secretly desire to engage in the same sorts of genocidal, authoritarian, power- drunk tactics that they falsely accuse Republicans of secretly planning.

Thankfully, their psychotic dream would never happen.
1. The odds of them ever gaining enough power to do that are slim to none.
2. As tritsofme bravely pointed out, such a plan would openly violate at least two Constitutional amendments and thus the Supreme Court would strike it down.
3. It would guarantee that every single official in favor of it would be run out of office in the next election, assuming they weren't impeached sooner than that.

Amazingly enough some of them are actually embarrassed by this poll.  So, this DUmmy tries to prove that Republicans are just as bad as Dems:

DemocratSinceBirth (100,876 posts)

What percent of MAGAS do you believe would approve of disappearing Democrats?

74 votes, 1 pass | Time left: Unlimited

80-100%         49 (66%)
60-79%           15 (20%)
40-59%             4 (5%)
20-39%             6 (8%)
Less than 20%   0 (0%)

1 DU member did not wish to select any of the options provided.

So, in a push-poll devoted to proving how evil Republicans are (or at least how evil DUmmies think we are) only 66% think there's an 80-100% of us would use the same tactics that 63% of them are 100% on board with.  Even when they try to project their own insanity on other groups (inside of their own little echo chamber) they fail miserably.

Disappear? Not at all! I want to know exactly who is in which camp and for how long, and I want a website that documents every liberal's path into each re-education camp. That's almost the opposite of disappearing someone.
