Listened to Ezra’s latest. It all just seems so far fetched being that the President and his team have their heads in the sand. I’m going to rant.
That, coupled with the Supreme Court ruling, and not to mention Trump’s statements over the last few days, and Project 2025. This is how our democracy ends, people, and nobody is taking it seriously. Is anyone taking it seriously?
The people behind Trump—Miller, Bannon, Heritage, the rest of the family—know this as much as we do. The subversion of our democracy isn’t just a conspiracy theory or a side effect to a populist movement anymore. They have full intention to do this. Not only do they have the intention, they have permission. Full immunity. It’s clear that this is where we’re heading. Crystal fucking clear.
After Trump lost to Biden, I was so relieved that we were back on course. I feel like somehow we are worse off now than we were in 2017-2020. To get back on the right path is going to take years—decades—of Supreme Court nominations, elections, legislation to prove that democracy can work. I don’t think we have that in us.
The question is what the fuck do we do about it? We can’t let this happen, can we?
