Well, that is not fair of me... What they actually did was say that they won't ban or filter white nationalist hate speech because it would sweep in every GOP politician, and the GOP politicians must have access to their platform.

Before Trump his ilk were all hiding in the shadows, waiting for the perfect opportunity to make themselves known and take possession. I bet they had no idea even themselves about their own bottomless depths of depravity. I don’t think they went in knowing or even planning that they could plumb the depths of pure greed and avarice the way they’ve done.

They should have been horrified at their own casual acceptance of caging children but it hardly rippled the surface of their consciousness. They were too hooked on the wealth they were amassing.

In the case of the MAGATs, well that’s a different story with it’s own peculiarly ugly, twisted reason for being.

The Trump era exploded on us like a backed up sewer and showed us what was always there, hiding. We can fix it if we fight for it but it would serve us well not to forget it.

Somehow, America became the greatest on earth during the 240 years before he became president.
I think it will be just fine if they get him out soon and won't miss him a bit once his mess has been cleaned up.

The President of the US is calling for violence against his accusers.

I don't think people, even DU posters, know how close we are to a full dictatorship. Trump is screaming for a civil war should he be removed from office. He's willing to jail or kill his political opponents. Our Democracy is on the brink, there's a very good chance he just won't leave office if removed, he'll stage a full coupe and 90% of Republicans in the government will go along with him.
