Conservatives are the new "good Germans," enabling and defending Trump's crimes

[TomCADem]

This is why we can't rest simply because Trump is not President. Rather than become more moderate, Republicans have doubled down on racism, support for Trump, and trying to ignore the electorate by making it more and more difficult for the people to vote.

Indeed, Trump now sees the 2022 election as his best hope to avoid prosecution by campaigning against Republicans who are not sufficiently loyal. Likewise, right wing media is in a race to the bottom in terms of pushing disinformation.

There is no civil war. Instead, the only competition of note is who is sufficiently supportive of Trump among Republicans.

Donald Trump is a force of political, human, moral and economic destruction. He is the leader of an American neofascist and white supremacist movement. Today's Republican Party has fully become an extension of his political cult and crime family.

Trump incited a lethal attack on the Capitol as part of a larger plot to overthrow American democracy. Although Trump was defeated by Joe Biden at the polls, he actually received 10 million more votes than he did in 2016. This is a historic level of support, only surpassed by the 81 million votes Biden received in the same election. Biden may be president of the United States now, but Donald Trump is now positioning himself as a shadow president.

Moreover, public opinion polls show that Trump himself is more popular than the Republican Party as a whole. White right-wing evangelicals worship Trump like he is a god. Sen. Mitt Romney has warned that Trump will likely win the 2024 Republican nomination if he chooses to run a second time.

Contrary to the media narrative that there is a "civil war" within the Republican Party, a new public opinion poll from Gallup shows that 40 percent of Republicans want the post-Trump Republican Party to become "more conservative," while 34 percent want it to "stay the same" and only 24 percent want the GOP to become "more moderate."

4. This is an effective way

To couch it. There's that other quote regarding "remember when you sat in history class learning about the holocaust, and thinking 'i know what I would have done had i been there'. As a pat on the back? Well, whatever you are doing now,...that is what you would have done then".
