  • The J6 crowd are going to get a blanket pardon. This will form (or, I should say, has already formed) the nascent core of what I can only describe as an American Sturmabteilung. They will be fanatically devoted to Trump, because he personally, and in a very real sense, will have saved them from languishing in jail, and “redeemed” them with a pardon (putting aside the fact that, in legal parlance, that is categorically not what a pardon does). I will be shocked if we do not have a Krystallnacht 2: electric boogaloo inside of a year from Trump taking office again.

    People need to start taking this shit seriously and to prepare accordingly. There is a playbook here, and they’re following it. It’s from history. It’s a very, very dangerous playbook. You know what I’m talking about.



  • No the fuck they did not.

    They contributed to this outcome. But the real root cause is that the DNC thought it would be a great idea to just straight up ignore the base, ignore the fact that despite the fact that “the economy is great”, normal fucking people in the middle and lower class have been struggling for like a decade and a half. The middle class is being hollowed out, and the lower class is being crushed to death. THAT is the primary reason Harris lost: nobody believes the idiotic platitudes the DNC shills anymore, because there’s never fucking ANY follow through. Single issue voters were just the frosting on that cake.

    All that said: dropping that many voters from the base should be grounds for fully excommunicating any and all party leadership from the DNC. And if they aren’t , the Democratic Party genuinely cannot be considered a serious political party anymore (but they’ll surely shamble on for years due to mega donors).
