Or to be more specific, Trump and his MAGAts are like a flock of seagulls -- they fly in, shit all over the place, and never leave.
Our democracy is under attack like never before. The Senate Repugs aren't going to vote to convict -- I doubt even one of them will do it, even after Fat Donnie's mob physically attacked the Capitol, killed people, and had a coordinated plan to harm senators and the vice president.
The Republicans have one purpose, and that is to gain power. They're even using the threat of exercising the filibuster in the future to give them absolute control over Biden's agenda now. If the filibuster is allowed to exist, the Dems are going to lose both houses in two years. People want to see change that makes their lives better, and if the Dems can't deliver that -- and deliver it quickly -- we'll become a minority party, and probably lose the presidency in four years.
The Republicans are in favor of autocracy and mob rule. Margaret Mead put it this way: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” Replace the word "thoughtful" with "angry" and you've got the Repug game plan.
