Stunning Trump revelations raise fears of a dark, violent future

“What does it mean that for most elected Republicans, none of what we’re learning” from the extraordinary 1/6 revelations “is remotely disqualifying, either in a party leader or a 2024 presidential nominee?” @ThePlumLineGS asks.
The answer isn’t good.

Opinion | Stunning Trump revelations raise fears of a dark, violent future
Why the GOP reaction to the Jan. 6 hearings may put us at a dangerous crossroads.

As extraordinary revelations pour forth about Donald Trump’s plot to destroy our political order after the 2020 election, an unsettling question arises: What does it mean that for most elected Republicans, none of what we’re learning is remotely disqualifying, either in a party leader or a 2024 presidential nominee?

At the close of Thursday’s Jan. 6 select committee hearing, J. Michael Luttig, a former federal judge widely respected by conservatives, issued a long-term warning. Trump and his allies pose a “clear and present danger to American democracy,” Luttig said, who pledge to “succeed in 2024 where they failed in 2020.”

“The former president and his allies,” Luttig continued, “are executing that blueprint for 2024 in open and plain view of the American public.”

This might seem like a narrow procedural prediction: If 2024 is super-close, they’ll attempt the same manipulation of our creaky electoral college machinery as last time. They might succeed. They’re putting those pieces in place right now.

That’s all true. But Luttig’s testimony, along with the shocking new revelations, point to something more fundamental at stake. These hearings are about what kind of long-term democratic future lies ahead: They represent an effort to minimize the possibility that we’re sliding headlong into a protracted era of chronic instability and rising political violence.

12. Thanks a lot, all you "I just didn't trust Hillary" f***bags! (and you kiss your mother with that mouth?)

Eat shit and die!
Basically the portents and omens are predicting doom because neither Republicans nor voters are watching the Jan 6th hearings like we have been commanded to.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Yeah, if we had just elected Hillary we could have had the situation we're in, but worse and sooner!

We'd have ground troops in Ukraine by now and dodging ICBMs.

Yeah, it was so horrible...those years of low energy prices and energy independence, low inflation, controlled borders, lowest black unemployment in history, genuine roaring economy.


You hated every minute of it, didn't you. Look at how the entire nation is suffering because of idiots like you who are too stupid to know what's good or bad, and vote accordingly.

"Be not intimidated... nor suffer yourselves to be wheedled out of your liberties by any pretense of politeness, delicacy, or decency. These, as they are often used, are but three different names for hypocrisy, chicanery and cowardice." - John Adams

Hillary Clinton will never be the President of the United States.

You spent all your energy trying to tie Trump to Russia, while ignoring how Hillary actually sold Russia some 20% of our uranium
The border was in much better shape and steadily improving...until Biden "fixed" it.
The ME was moving more toward a peaceful coexistence than ever before. Biden screwed that up as if planned.
Every damn social indicator was improving under Trump. Biden fixed that as well.
$85 billion in military weaponry,  just the exclamation point to a totally inept, ****ed up pull out of Afghanistan. biden and his select crew again.
Killed our energy industry first...THEN...tries to get more oil from our enemies. Another brilliant Biden tactic.
Just a small example of Biden's accomplishments so far.
While we all brace for the next genius move from Biden let me add. You're one stupid son of a bitch.
