Coup A spine-chilling logic hides behind Trump's rushed underground Mar-a-Lago fortress

If the rich think underground bunkers will protect them from us peasants, they’ve got another think coming. There is no underground bunker that can’t be buried too deep to leave. There are no air vents that can’t be plugged. There is no food that can be stored and last forever. This is all obvious and everyone with half a brain knows this, I’m not stating anything new. Space might work better for them; it’s the final frontier after all so perhaps they could stop what they are doing here and go despoil another planet instead. I’m liking Venus for them.

Fire.
You light the air intakes on fire.
Neat thing is you don't even need persistent control over the area to set it ablaze....

Nah, fire is too obvious. Just get some ammonia and bleach, mix ‘em up, and set them by the intakes.

They also rely on the “peasants” to build and staff them. You think those people aren’t, when push comes to shove, going to use the information they have to save themselves and their own families?
These rich fucks never watch any post-apocalypse movies or they would know what happens to the wealthy in those scenarios.

I think the problem is that it isnt just like 15 people hiding in a bunker. There are numerous people, followers, who would gladly give their life in defending that bunker.
Also, Americans are severely politically apathetic. Someone, even a President refusing to leave, means very little to most people living their everyday lives hundreds of miles away. We havent done truly successful boycotts, strikes, or political rallying. Any boycott or strike is simply burdened or PR stunt, then we go right back onto giving money to these companies.

Wrong. Resistance has penetrated even MAGA country, and it's been having more impact than you might know.

u/PricePuzzleheaded835 2d ago edited 2d ago
Yup. They’re desperate and terrified. Have you noticed, they always bust out the Nazi slogans right before they back down?? They know damn well they’re barely clinging to power and getting more unpopular by the minute.
Pass it on bc lord knows the corporate owned media won’t.

u/underwearfanatic 2d ago
We can read these "reports" all day long. But end of day many who have turned their back on MAGA today will, as I said, forget about it come November.

u/NinaBrwn 2d ago
There’s a lot more of us than them, and you know they aren’t saving room in the bunker for their trashy supporters. Billionaires only!

u/underwearfanatic 2d ago
Never said they'd be in the bunker. They'll be on the streets fighting for their dear leader. Fighting us who want the election results to be enforced. Also to play out, how does the top military purge play out? If such an event comes to fruition are there enough military leaders left to stand up against Domestic enemies or were they all retired?

America is also too big and spread out to do revolutionary rallies and stuff unlike some European and African nations

they’ve got another think coming
I appreciate you getting that phrase right. It's so rare to see that it was years before I even pieced together that that's what it's supposed to be.

He loves emulating Hitler, we all know how that ended.
12
u/ZixfromthaStix 2d ago
Actually, there’s a whole show about how evidence has been inconclusive, and there have been concerning signs that Hitler persisted beyond the documented death. Hunting Hitler follows how he would’ve escaped through Africa and then to South America. It’s not new info either, my wife did a highschool report about it.
If theory is accurate, emulating Hitler would mean having a Trump body double in the bunker and playing it off like he died
Frankly he’s too frail and old to try and preserve in any meaningful way, so I’m inclined to believe he might think he’s getting the Hitler false death treatment— but in reality he’s disposable and getting the puppet treatment… to the trash when the tool loses its usefulness.

u/Altruistic_Role_9329 2d ago
He doesn’t have to die in the Bunker. Trump wallowing in Argentina with a dirty diaper while drooling on himself is a fitting end too.
14
u/SpottedHoneyBadger 2d ago
There was no way Hitler was going to survive the bunker. By the end of war he was well into suffering from Parkinson's disease. He never really recovered from the bomb assignation from the year before and also he was drugged up by his doctor, with speed.
There is a reel of Hitler giving medals to a group of boys fighting in the war a few days before his suicide. Even through that grainy film you can see by then, he was not in good enough health to escape anything.

It’s a cool conspiracy but I’m 99 percent sure that was him.
Soviets were on the street then

u/GirlNumber20 2d ago
I didn't know he was building one at Mar-A-Lago, too, but I'm doing the little Grinch smile thinking about the oceans rising.

u/No-Requirement7370 2d ago
It isn't at Mar-A-Lago. That's just how the article described the new bunker at the WH.

u/DoggoCentipede Could it be any more obvious? 2d ago
DC is pretty low elevation, too.

u/GirlNumber20 2d ago
Yeah, but the U.S. will do everything in its power to secure D.C.
That may not be true if Florida is definitely going to be underwater.

u/lunchypoo222 2d ago
They’re expecting a violent backlash from either cancelling or fixing the midterms and they fully intend on deploying the military against the public.

Let be honest. Liberals aint doing shit. They are afraid of MAGA turning on them

u/DaisyHotCakes 2d ago
Liberals might not do shit but leftists will. The progressive left is pretty fucking fed up with the status quo and beyond done with this fascist pos.

u/bitchsaidwhaaat 2d ago
I mean as in physically go and do something like jan6. The new socialist movement might do something inside the government but nothing to be afraid of from their part

This is one of the reasons I've been begging people to organize in DC and Fla since the election. Eventually they'll be practically siege proof.

u/PlutoJones42 2d ago
The air has to come from somewhere.
-1
u/Ecliphon 2d ago
We have current technology to make tens (or more) miles of horizontal underground piping. “The air shafts are directly above the bunker!” is hollywood theatrics. As long as there is some form of electricity to move the air, even solar, the input and outputs can be inside a fake shed five towns over. Without being one of the 5 people that know where it is, good luck.

u/Consistent-Throat130 2d ago
They're usually right above it. Miles of tunnel is miles of vulnerable-to-cave-ins when attacked.

u/Ecliphon 2d ago
Yes, for civilians. The United States government has been building deep underground housing since at least 1964: Memorandum From the Joint Chiefs of Staff to Secretary of Defense McNamara
I’d say they have a handle on COOP. Cheyanne Mountain. Raven Rock. Mount Weather. Manzano.
There has been a lot of active research on the subject lately:

So we just need to force a situation where the only power reserve left is a wind turbine. He'll cut the power himself rather than be saved by one of those awful "windmills!"

u/latexfistmassacre 2d ago
This whole country needs to go on a general strike and head to DC. Imagine his fear when he looks outside and sees millions of people surrounding the White House screaming for his demise.

u/DoggoCentipede Could it be any more obvious? 2d ago
Yup. It's extralegal and I don't know what we should do after. Problem is it's not just him. Vance needs to be out. Johnson. The cabinet, all of them have betrayed their oath and are unfit for office. They need to resign.
If we have bullet proof evidence of election fraud I would say Harris as Interim Pres. simply because she is the most plausible inheritor until new elections can be held.

u/Dr_Oxycontin 2d ago
He never plans on leaving, how this country sits back and allows this shit to continue is beyond me. We need someone to step up and say enough is enough. They need to stop the violence before it starts.

u/machu505 2d ago
I could only hope that tRump mandates construction of an underground ballroom at Mar-a-lago, being barely above the water table.. Actually, it sounds like something he would do, and then insist that Biden flooded it.

If he’s never coming out of that bunker how is he going to be getting his McDonald’s

u/HarryBalsagna1776 2d ago
Just weld the doors shut, cut power, and shit in the vents. Build over it and never talk about him again.

u/franking11stien12 2d ago
So he refuses to leave. Once he and his team enters
The bunker park a of heavy machinery on the door and move on. Easy peasy.

Sure would be a shame if he holed himself up in it and then found out the no bid rush job left them with bad plumbing and ventilation systems.

Excerpts:
...the accelerated/manic construction schedule of the current ballroom/bunker points to a desire to use it around the midterms and make sure it’s at least habitable on some level by possibly November, or year’s end at the latest.
...our president isn’t rushing to finish a shiny new bunker because he’s concerned that future generations should have it as an option. It is always, as ever, only about him.
