We'll be the new East Germany.
I wonder how long before states start considering secession again.
The sooner Blue States leave the Conservative Centipede, the better. I don't view conservatives to be fellow Americans anymore.
Same.
If you vote for a felon rapist traitor who sent a mob to stop the peaceful transfer of power, illegally attempted to overturn an election, already had a failed presidency, and is now enacting a fascist agenda that's deporting American citizens to foreign prisons, I do not consider you an American anymore. You are an enemy of everything it is to be American. Primarily and functionally, the Constitution.
Too many lines have been crossed. It's time to start calling conservative voters what they are. Enemies. Because this far into this, there are no more excuses. Ignorance is not an excuse anymore.
Maybe 4 years of this insanity is the wakeup people need
As someone who's been around long enough I can tell you it absolutely won't be for conservatives. They never learn. Ever.
The most you can possibly get out of them is some light verbal disapproval of someone on their team, typically if it involves their wallets taking a hit. But when the time comes, they will ALWAYS vote to keep their team in power, no matter how vile and/or criminal they are.
We already had 4 years of Trump. It sucked that time and it wasn't enough to convince nearly half of Americans
Yup.
Teams are more important than America now.
