It's not at all biased to note that those protestors have no political representation while trump was literally in the white house. At this point trump has stolen nuclear secrets it seems, so yea he has a bunch of fascist supporters, but he's a whole lot more than just that.
I'm OK with hanging the thugs on both sides of the aisle.Quote:

I'm generally OK with being called stupid, but not before I've had my coffee. :(Quote:

To a fringewit, the truth is clear and simple and any contradiction can be dismissed as the lies of the opposition. There are only two possible sides in the Great Struggle. You are either with us or beyond the pale.
Fortunately, this thinking is limited to a tiny minority.
Tell you what---I'm voting for whomever the Whig Party supports. See---Millard Filllmore was a one-termer who did not campaign, and the last Whig to be Presydent. How do you like that? We are getting to be like a Latin country, with partisan fanaticism and idolizing our party leaders, something I find disturbing. Inflation runs rampant; pretty soon, you'll have to take a wheelbarrow full of cash to the store for a loaf o' bread. Next thing you know, NATO will have to intercede, and straighten things out. Hope that helps you some.Attachment 4704

When you have people like Kevin McCarthy, Newt Gingrich, and Ron DeSantis screaming hatred for the rule of law by accusing the FBI of attacking political enemies it's not so much a fringe sort of aspect of the Republican party, it's more the entire shag carpet of the republican party that holds these views.
Your optimism is inspiring! :DQuote:
