Daily Beast article on these people, who IMO are domestic terrorists:

On one hand, I want this pro-death message by Trump and my County Commissioner covered by the news media; on the other hand, I don’t want our County Commissioner to get more publicity.

10. The Right Is Now A Dangerous Cult

Again what’s going on right now on the right is not unlike what was going on in the 30s in Germany. Open season on people of color, including via Police. Caging Hispanic folks, including children. Crazed Far righties waving guns around at Governors residences. Anti Semitism too.

Further evidence is the many republicans fighting this cult, the people behind the Lincoln Project. We see them all the time on MSNBC and CNN.

There are still way more of us than them. We have to vote in such massive numbers that will negate their cheating.

Trump is terrified about voting by mail because it’s not a machine that can be hacked. He admitted it when he said Republicans would never win if mail in voting is in place.

2020 could decide which way we go.
