kentuck's JournalA message to the GOP and their cult...
"I'm really sorry you lost the election."
But it's time to wipe away the tears and wipe your butts and get over it. You un-American, unpatriotic assholes! You are a disgrace to our country.
Not only are you naive patsies that give away your money to two-bit con artists, you are undeserving of any sympathy from your friends or your family. In short, you are friggin' stupid.
The Chinese did not slip in ballots made out of bamboo and nobody hid a box under the table just so you could see them on television. How ignorant can one person be?
The incompetent liar lost the election and persuaded you to give him money to fight the results. He never paid his lawyers. He kept your money. He laughed behind your backs. You were played for a fool.
So, isn't it about time to wake the hell up!
The Pusher
Are most Republican voters naive to what Trump and the Republicans politicians are doing?
...to our country and our democracy?
Is it mostly just a "my team - their team" with Republican voters.
We have seen a few Republicans that are just as fearful for our democracy as are Democrats. But, we do not know how many?
Are we nearing the point where ignorance will kill us all?
There is no reason to be optimistic, for sure. Most of these Republicans look to Donald Trump for their "news". Everybody else is "fake news". It is going to be multiple times worse if he is returned to Twitter or Facebook.
I see no way to logically communicate with these folks??
Slouching Towards Mar-A-Lago
If you show enough sincerity in your lies, many people will believe them - especially if it is something they want to hear.
The lies spread like a contagion over the Republican Party. They wanted so much to believe that Donald Trump won the last election. Not since Joe McCarthy had they deluded themselves to such an extent.
Now they have a new McCarthy and he is their leader in the House of Representatives. He begged and pleaded with Trump to stop the rampage on January 6th and went to the floor of the House to condemn his actions. But that was then. Now, he pretends it never happened.
They march down in single file to Mar--A-Lago to get their allowances. Mr Trump is now handling all of their finances. If they behave, they may get a campaign donation and maybe a photo and a word of support from Mr Trump. What more could they ask for?
They are willing to sacrifice everything for the delusions emanating from Mar-A-Lago. They are true believers. They are willing to sacrifice our democracy if they can but touch the hem of his garment.
A question about the "Special Master", who has been appointed to peruse Giuliani's phone info?
Reportedly, his/her purpose is to prevent the prosecutors from seeing privileged information between the attorney and his client. Giuliani was the attorney for Donald Trump.
My question is, what happens if the information between attorney and client is part of the prosecutors' investigation? Is it still held back from the prosecutors?
How do they know the "Special Master" is not biased one way or the other politically?
"Drastic times call for drastic measures."
The Greek physician and philosopher Hippocrates said it first: “For extreme diseases, extreme methods of cure, as to restriction, are most suitable.”
==================
In other words, drastic times call for drastic measures.
In my opinion, we are in one of those such of times. We are facing a constitutional crisis, from an enemy within. It is larger than either the Democratic or the Republican Party. It is a existential threat to our democracy.
It dawned on me as I watched a clip of the meeting in Mar-a-Lago, between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, that there is an outside conspiracy against our government and our democracy. It is a real threat.
Ted Cruz should be expelled from the Senate. It should be a "bi-partisan" effort. This would be a "drastic measure". But, it needs to be done. Because we are dealing with "domestic enemies".
Another "drastic measure" that needs to be done is a change of leadership in the Senate of the United States. This is just my opinion, but I believe the Senate Leaders in both Parties should step down. We need new leadership. It is that serious. (I do not expect any of this to happen anytime soon but it needs to be done)
This crisis is larger than either of the political Parties but not as large as the two of them combined. That is the call for "bi-partisanship". It is required to get us out of this mess.
If drastic measures are not taken now, in my opinion, much more drastic measures will be required in the near future.
In my opinion, it is a time for action. There should be a summit between all the Party leaders to determine the direction they want to go.
The Republican "terrorists" would prefer to argue the Big Lie, rather than the attack on our Capitol
Because, they can get their base to believe the election was stolen more easily than they can get them to believe the attack on our Capitol was no big deal.
Also, if the election was stolen, it gives them a "reason" for the attack to try and stop the certification of Joe Biden for President.
Don't let them slide on January 6th Insurrection by giving too much time to the Big Lie. I do believe it is part of their political strategy.
Their defense for the storming of our Capitol and terrorizing all those within the Capitol, cannot logically be defended.
Both are/were despicable acts but the sedition and insurrection are more serious.
The Congress takes an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Many of them have broken their oath.
Not only have they not protected and defended our Constitution, they have been complicit in attacking our Constitution and supporting those that have attacked our nation's Capitol. Those same people have been declared "domestic terrorists".
These folks should not be in our Congress.
They are as much enemies of the state as those domestic terrorists that attacked our Capitol on January 6th.
That is why they are defending the Big Lie. They know they are complicit and they have no defense.
They have given comfort and support to the domestic enemies of our government.
