I am deeply worried about Trump's CPAC speech today.

With at least 7 panels/meetings at CPAC talking about "The Stolen election"

The the last time Trump spoke to a Group of people we had 1/6/21 happen. and with the new Conspiracy Theory about March 4th.

I am deeply worried.

... has used to go after the seditionists of Jan 6 has and will have a chilling effect on insurrection.

Let the exPresident* chatter on. He'll be tied-up in courts (and hopefully in jail) soon enough and until he dies.

Last time Trump spoke to a crowd he had a lot of power and control as President. He was able to influence the slow National Guard response.

This time, he is an orange shitstain on the pages of history shouting in front of his golden idol.

What we need to worry about is Dem turnout in 2022 in order to shrink the numbers of his fellow white supremacists in congress.

Also, an attempt by his supporters to match January 6th would not be welcomed as kindly as it was when Trump was in office.

The courts have to turn them into cautionary tales.
