4. I think of it often:

When they slaughtered Congress, we didn't wake up. When they blamed terrorists and suspended the constitution, we didn't wake up then, either. Nothing changes instantaneously. In a gradually heating bathtub, you'd be boiled to death before you knew it.”

They got to get him out.

Remember the last couple of days a call on Saturday to Georgia SOS strong arming a state official, then going to the rally on Monday night and expelling lies, and now today. He's a powder keg I think it would be a grave mistake to have him there.
