    Maybe the “movement” is just attracting insufferable people, who also find themselves insufferable.

    Good. The rest of us hate them already so it’s nice to have some common ground.

    this + the fact that lara trump is firing people in the rnc and devoting all funds to trump only should spell disaster for downballot races.

      “I am altering the deal. Pray I do not alter it any further.”

      Looks like the guys who like to have the existence of “the line” just found the essential flaw in that system: There’s no way to tell when you suddenly might find yourself on the wrong side of it.

      How much you want to bet that a lot of that money is going to end up being used to pay trumps legal fees, fines and settlements?

      They’re likely going along with it on the basis that they no longer care about downballot races, or even the main race, intending instead for Trump to seize power & install loyalists by force.

      I don’t see their plan working, but there’ll still be considerable chaos & violence during the attempt.

    Hopefully the American people – those are still somehow on the fence – see this and determine that this isn’t the right thing for themselves or the country.

    At this point, it’s not about loving Biden or liking Democrats. It’s just about making sure we have adults in the room managing and keeping an eye on things.
