They can't wait to vote for him in November.
What's wrong with them? How can they not grasp the consequences?
Many are people we know. Some are friends. Some are family.
They believe the lies. The propaganda. The poison.
Are they morally dead?
Didn't they hear him say "vermin," "poisoning our blood," "deport millions," "camps for illegals," "assassination of opponents?"
Mark Twain said: "History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes." I've got to disagree. What Trump and his minions have in mind is an exact repeat of Nazi Germany's Third Reich. When American soldiers entered those death camps, the words "True Evil" became fully defined for the entire world.
Why do I think that Trump and his ilk are capable of this? Because I've listened to what he, and so many of his followers have said out loud. They've told us where they will go if they gain power. BELIEVE THEM.
Can we stop them before any of this happens? I don't know. But the first step is obvious. VOTE!

(91,682 posts)But the GOP has spent decades assiduously preparing the way for a takeover by gerrymandering, ethnically cleansing the voter rolls, working the Electoral College margins with 3rd party candidates, capturing the SCOTUS, and more lately, with violence.
We have our work cut out for us but there are more of us than there are of them, so do not lose heart.

Remind voters what he did in his term.
He does not have the support he had in 2020.
His hardcore supporters are only about 16% of the 2020 voters. The other 30% will not all vote for him. The over one million that died from Covid won't be able to vote for him either.
Biden's campaign will go full drive after the convention. Maybe a bit after the first debate. After the convention is the best time to get the message out.
There will be Republicans and Independents that will switch their vote to Biden.
There will be many of them turned off by Trump. His rallies are smaller than in the past.
We all need to get the word out. Now is not necessary. Use your social media. Just don't post in groups not intended political purposes.

Given widespread voter suppression tactics, and the corrupt laws passed by too many state legislators in far too many (red) states, the fact that we are a majority could be nullified. In short, given the Electoral College, they can steal the election.
Could the Supreme Court stop them? Well, the last time the SCOTUS got involved in a national election was in 2000, when they appointed George W. Bush to the White House.

The Biden campaign in conjunction with Democratic State Parties will have plans in place.

(2,332 posts)They were undoubtedly around when we were living in caves and banging rocks together for fun.
As for your other queries:
They're stupid and afraid of anything different from them--same as those rock-bangers.
Why do you think they wouldn't welcome the consequences? Do you really think they don't want an all-white, all-Christian nation of morons, even if it means killing all of the people they hate?
Guess what? They're fine with doing what it takes to get their White Trash Fantasyland.
First of two answers: Yes.
Second of two answers: Many of them never had any morality to begin with. Everything is transactional with them.
Why do you think they would have a problem with any of that? Come on, saying all that is what they love about the guy, because they want the kind of totalitarian dystopia that hates the same people they do, and wants to hurt and even kill them to be rid of them. And that is nothing new for Americans. Did you miss what they tried to do to Native Americans? Or the political movements to ship black people back to Africa? Or how readily Americans accept what amounts to a systematic elimination of black people through vigilantism and even our injustice system that continues to this day?
None of this is anything new, and these people didn't transport to this world through some intergalactic membrane that suddenly appeared in 2016.
THE MONSTERS HAVE BEEN INSIDE THE HOUSE ALL ALONG.
Were you really blind to that fact?
