Because "Americans,” here, is anybody not already storming the Bastille or surrounding the Capitol with torches and pitchforks, or loading trebuchets to hurl flaming dung at the White House. You know: doing something about Trump.
I can be the Most Outraged Person On The Planet, and there’s still nothing I can directly do about the current leadership of the country. I could go to my GOP Rep’s town hall (if he held one) and shout my ire with him. What else can I do, until November, 2026? Expect 212 Democrats in the House to usurp the power of the majority because Trump? Plot the assassination of Trump and Vance and Johnson, in hopes of putting a Democrat behind the Resolute Desk before 2029?Assassinate the Sinister Six and the Senate GOP leadership until we have enough Democrats to change the Court? Tell me, if you know.
How the hell is this not exactly like MAGA, except on “our” side?
Besides, I’m pretty sure the outrage I’m hearing about from town halls (even in Alabama!) is proof people don’t just think “it can’t happen here,” so they think it isn’t happening. And other than showing up at town halls and shouting (which gives me hope), what else are they supposed to do? Kidnap their representatives until their demands are met?
Pretty sure the same people on the intertoobs were saying the same thing about Trump I. So why didn’t they get people to reject Trump again? I’m sure, like Trump, those people will insist it’s not their fault!
It never is.
