    It’s insane on too many fronts… I mean off the bat it’s an insanely weird gift, half illegal… and I guess it’s also a reference to a warcrime?

      it shows how insane the country is becoming

      we’re openly celebrating war crimes and ethnic cleansing

      like, before they would beat around the bush. you know the dog whistles. “anti-antisemitism” “self-defense” etc

      once the need for the mask is not so strong, the mask starts to slip

        the mask has been off for a while honestly. all of this is just blatant now. he’s not trying to hide anything.

        Gotta admit, that would be the most hilarious assasination of all time.

        “umm… yeah so we gave him a gift of a technology that america doesn’t even use… of which the only way most people in america even remember they exist, is because we turned a bunch of them into bombs… But it’s gold plated and tacky looking which trump can’t resist, so we know he’ll wear it openly on his next press conference”.
