(5,275 posts)But....there are way more of us than them. We need to show up for every election for anything.....while pushing hard as we can for a more reliable vote counting system that would make it quite difficult to cheat. If that happens we win most places every time.
We also need to deep six the scam that is the Electoral College, and work to make the Senate more equitable......no way no how should Montana have the same amount of Senators as California.

Tom Jacobs interviews Jason Stanley:
"The structure of fascism is very old, and the arguments it makes are very tempting," says Stanley, author of the new book How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them. Fascist politicians, he argues, exploit both our fear and our laziness.
"Any institution that is run democratically takes a huge amount of work," he notes. "All too often, what Americans mean by 'freedom' is 'freedom from the burden of having to make decisions.'"

(9,090 posts)limbaugh has led/policed 1500 radio stations to support trump since the primaries, and has maintained a constant drumbeat of lies about a 'deep state coup', angling toward putting republicans in the position of using threats of investigating and forcing testimony from obama and clinton etc as leverage to force dems into compromise.
ignoring talk radio continues to be the biggest political mistake in history

(187 posts)What do you call someone that lies us into war? It was unprecedented for a Vice President of the United States to visit CIA Headquarters, let alone, the amount of times he did.

Call it treason, conspiracy, collusion, fraud, cheating, or the rat fucking of America but
the proof is out there and it is overwhelming.
We need to impeach his ass and then let the republicans in the senate go ahead and stand
shoulder to shoulder with that traitor.

(5,213 posts)those who supported Hitler because they simply wanted to be on the winning side, faded away quickly and made an effort to rewrite their own personal history.
Reasons were trotted out, like 'I didn't want to become a victim', but the truth is, people did it for the personal gain they perceived they could make out of it.
So too America, once Trump is defeated, his supporters will fade away and strenuously deny he even existed, and that they supported him.
After WW2, Hitler's political party disappeared from sight. Hopefully, so too the Republican party. It cannot survive wallowing in filth without it's leader.

(11,535 posts)I've also been on a quiet campaign for the last several years - the right are not "conservatives" they are "regressive," and I think it's long past time that they are referred to as such.
