    Did i say democrats wont be mad?  Am in that democrat group, but you can bet your ass magas will be more upset.  Am sure all the other places where dictatorships started, those people never thought they would lose their guns.

    I made a statement, I was not arguing with you.  No reason to be combative when I simply stated that more people than just, as you put it, "MAGAs" heads would blow.  

    I did ask you a question though as to the reality of attempting to disarm that many citizens....just curious to thoughts on that....

    Question is, by what machinations would you expect this to be realistically possible??

    Social Security Administration to require in-person identity checks for new and existing recipients

    "Beginning March 31st, people will no longer be able to verify their identity to the SSA over the phone and those who cannot properly verify their identity over the agency’s “my Social Security” online service, will be required to visit an agency field office in person to complete the verification process, agency leadership told reporters Tuesday."

    Retiree advocates warn that the change will negatively impact older Americans in rural areas, including those with disabilities, mobility limitations, those who live far from SSA offices and have limited internet access.--Associated Press

    DOGE's plan will also shutter dozens of Social Security offices throughout the country and layoff thousands of Social Security workers on top of the above changes. 

    Good luck folks, see ya at the long line waiting for Social Security services.

    Shadowboxin’ when I heard this on the radio . But I just don’t know . Why Social Security is in such a hurry to worry everyone that is old ? That can’t get out of their homes ? So let’s send my homeboy Elon , he can go .

    To each and every geriatric owned house out in the prairies . Where there’s barely anything , and he can talk to granny . Before she lands her ass in the cemetery . I’m very .

    Perturbed by all of this . So Musk can charge up his electrical car and zip . To rural areas out in the sticks . And check in with every seventy year old man and the damsel that he married that exists .

    And verify whatever he has to . Cuz wheelchair bound men handicapped in the legs can’t simply get around like you . And me . or every Johnny on the street . That’s healthy . So hell let’s send Elon himself . Cuz he’s wealthy . 

    let Elon himself drive around in his fabulous Trump endorsed electric car and verify social security for all the octogenarians that don’t have internet access thumbs_up

    wallstreetcappers craps in his draws and pees fuckin backwards from his vaj with a squirt.

    Perturbed by all of this . So Musk can charge up his electrical car and zip . To rural areas out in the sticks . And check in with every seventy year old man and the damsel that he married that exists .

    And verify whatever he has to . Cuz wheelchair bound men handicapped in the legs can’t simply get around like you . And me . or every Johnny on the street . That’s healthy . So hell let’s send Elon himself . Cuz he’s wealthy . 

    let Elon himself drive around in his fabulous Trump endorsed electric car and verify social security for all the octogenarians that don’t have internet access thumbs_up

    But even worse predicament for American taxpayers is many of those over worked and now understaffed offices that don't get shut down by President Musk will only accept in person visits by appointment. Current wait times are over one month at most locations and expected to get much worse

    Of course i think it would be hard to do, but if trumpys want a full dictatorship they will have to try to do it.

    They’re planning on saving money in other areas like they were designed to do and they will use those savings to employ Musk’s young staff to drive electric automobiles ……

    and they will be making housecalls in them to out yonder and “ in the sticks “ residences for social security verification purposes like doctors used to make in the 50s for sore throats or the chicken pox like on Leave it to Beaver .

    you heard it here first peace_5

    @Zeus4par

    Long line waiting for  DMV for driver license renewal at a local DMV office isn't quite of a pleasure, luckily many of us can renew it on line now unless you are over 70 years old.

    The thing is, if millions more of us have to go to DMV in person, rather than on line, to renew our driver's licenses. Good luck, probably less happy campers are out there.

    @cd329

    Of course i think it would be hard to do, but if trumpys want a full dictatorship they will have to try to do it.

     

    There is about a 0.01% chance any Administration would successfully be able to disarm the majority, much less the entire, US gun owning population.  Even true MAGAs would turn on Trump, no doubt in my mind.  That would be the type of deal to kick off an internal coup.  I think you are overestimating Trump and underestimating Americans.  

     Even when you look at historical examples of Countries and Dictators who successfully disarmed their populations, there were no "gun confiscations" of the mass public.  It simply did not happen.  Germany, Russia, China...throw in Cambodia and Pol Pot.  There were no mass confiscations of guns.  Do you know why that didn't happen?? 

    Well with Stalin and Mao they simply had already eradicated their opposition.  Germany might be closest example as there was no civil war or straight genocide going on (like Russia & China) when Hitler came to power and through the years he simply eliminated his oppositions ability to own firearms through regulation.  By the time WWII came around he had no opposition so he was happy to have his citizens armed (but all registered).  This all doesn't even take into account the shear volume of guns and the number of US citizen gun owners versus these countries 100 years ago.  Can't even compare.  

    To put it simply.  There are no instances in modern times (the last 50 years) I can recall when a first world democratic nation even attempted to disarm their citizens.  Gun buy back programs??  Sure.  Let me know how that will work out here.  

    Time is a flat circle....

    keep under estimating trumps insane stupidity.  Like i said, probably wouldnt work, doesnt mean trumpy won try. No way to know what will happen, until he tries a stupid move like this.  Honestly i believe our military wouldnt go along with that plan and would take down trumpy themselves.

    @Zeus4par

     He promised to reduce government waste - which every president has said since I was born - and it is a noble cause......on paper.

    But the way he's doing it is actually causing more harm than good and the American public, including a very large percentage of republicans, is OUTRAGED!

    His plan seems to be to complete his promise NO MATTER HOW MANY TENS of MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE HURT by his wrecking ball tactics.

    And he will ultimately claim victory for keeping his promise, even when the hardships on American's will be WORSE.

    trump out in 2028 now thats some funny stuff. Guess people are going thru life with blinders on and cant see whats slowly taking place in front of their eyes.  Trump aint leaving office until he dies.

    Biden made a giant mistake and could have saved us and the world from this con artist criminal.  When the supreme said Presidents are untouchable, he should have had trump picked up and sent to some secret location to live out the rest of his life behind bars.  You screwed us biden.  Biden could have just said i have no idea what happened to trump, maybe he went to russia an_roll_laugh
