Democrats need to take clips of this rally to show Americans without a doubt what will happen if they lose the House & the Senate in the upcoming mid-terms... Beyond time to use Trump's own words against him...
how do we stop this short of fighting fire with fire? Voting, peaceful protest, calling our elected officials, writing them, heck begging them to help us protect democracy isn’t working. I don’t see the DOJ making a case and prosecuting him before 2024 … so how do we end this I feel like i’m banging my head against a wall! and honestly i’m starting to think ok VP Harris will just declare Biden the winner no matter what and that scares me too, how do we stop this craziness without becoming our own form of the craziness ?
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Elected Democrats need to push the envelope until it breaks. Fire every Trump holdover, no matter the protocol. Make em sue if they don’t like it. Tell SCROTUS to pound sand over their refusal to approve OSHA vaccine mandates. Screw the Senate, appoint acting officials. Cancel student debt, all of it. Legalize weed via EO. Etc etc etc
Or, hear me out, we should be advocating for this. If the VP cam overturn an election, and the VP is a Democrat, we’d never have to endure a Republican President again right?
but we know with this crowd even applying their own logic doesn’t work
it’s just frustrating to me.
I’m an army brat, lost my Dad early in this hell to Covid like first month … 1/6 was the first time I said thank God Dads not here this would kill him to see. And if i’m honest I wish I didn’t have to see it! sorry anniversary is the 6 and i’m just missing the best voice of reason I’ve know
Is their 'tribalism' more self-destructive, or just plain destructive? I think we're seeing Susie & Linds' complicity in the attempted destruction of democracy overall. So far, though, it doesn't appear that the GOP is reaping what they're sowing, at least not exclusively. With the media emphasis (still!) on "bothsidesism" making TFG's ragegasms equivalent to Biden's ice cream purchases, I think we're, as Van Halen said, "headed for a whole lotta trouble."
I still think it boils down to reinstituting some form of the "Fairness Doctrine" in which so-called "news" entities are forced to give equal time to opposing views. Can you imagine FOX, OAN, Newsmax, or RSB with equal time being given to reality??
There is no "quiet part" for Trump. He is basically calling for his followers to take up arms, & attack those who support the Constitution instead of him. And he is telling them that "if you elect me, you will suffer no consequences, because I'll pardon you". That the GOP continues to support him, with a few exceptions, just shows that they're more afraid of him than he is of them. I'm waiting to hear his defenders say that he was only speaking "metaphorically" & that he didn't really mean what he said.

hey fighting fire with fire works …
but we know with this crowd even applying their own logic doesn’t work
it’s just frustrating to me.

RIP I lost my dad in 2017.
sorry for your loss
I did NOT see that coming…😅

or as ac/dc said we’re “on the highway to hell” and nothing we do seems to provide a solid end of the ride or heck even a detour.
