See, we are all missing the point:

When Trump and his minions talk about going after the “worst of the worst“, they are not referring to the same group of individuals that perhaps you and I are.

He’s referring to brown people, black people, anyone who speaks in a foreign accent, people who voted for a Democrat, anyone who doubts MAGA’s righteousness, non-Christians, legitimate medical professionals, lawyers who represent any of the above, any woman who has had a pregnancy terminated for any reason at all whatsoever, and lastly, anyone at any time for any reason at all whatsoever.

It’s pure Nazism.

To European Royalty, the Founding Father were and still are traitors. So some might think we're getting our just rewards.

He refers to many Democrats as traitors, accuses them of treason and "seditious behavior," and calls them "the enemy within." We need to return the favor- we have the truth on our side. We also need to understand that this is not something that can be settled inside the usual arenas of debate.

Especially at the end of the month when ICE is trying to meet their quota.

Yes they are going after the brown people but they don't seem to give a shit once they see you are a foreigner, because they get paid just as much for any colour.

... the regime doesn't like Christians who know that trying to pass laws that impose their beliefs on people who don't share those beliefs is both Un-American AND Un-Christian.

And for our part, we need to be clear that we embrace diversity, including people of faith, so long as they DO NOT seek to impose their beliefs on others as a matter of law.

the Lords. Something in that class of people is trying to come back. I believe the non wealthy back in the reptile brains believe that if they just bow a little to the very wealthy that they might be master of the the slaves or serfs. That old "trickle down". They are really craving for the aristocracy to come back.

If the Democratic Party doesn't really step up their game if we ever get control, heaven help the nation with what comes after Trump.

The party has to put all the departments back like they were before Bush and stop appointing any Republicans at all into any department and not allow any conservatives to be hired in FBI, CIA, IRS etc to be able to clean up those agencies.

Nobody likes their policies so it's all about enemies. Trump just stopped doing it in dogwhistles. The test is if Republican voters still vote for Republicans after Trump 2: The Final Insult. I think most will.
