[quote=Anonymous][quote]Nobody was close to taking away any rights. [b]Trump is an annoyance that will soon be gone. [/b]No fundamental rights have even been at risk. It is people who think the opposite that give trump his power. He is nothing. He has done nothing. Everything has worked the way it was supposed to. Almost nothing of importance was allowed to proceed by the courts, slightly making part of PP's point.

Freedom is won in many places. Yes in a courtroom, but also on a battlefield and every day by good people who do the right things. The military is not actively planning anything. The FBI is another story. But not to keep trump there but to make sure he goes with little fanfare. [/quote]

I find this kind willful ignorance and naivete completely fascinating.

I've been called paranoid since the beginning, and almost everything I was "paranoid" about has happened, including this bumbling attempt to stay in power.

The idea that Trump is an annoyance and will soon be gone - they are installing loyalists in every nook and cranny they can stuff them into. They've made some of them civil servants so they can't be fired. And look what the head of the Agency that runs VOA just did:

And consider, on Wednesday, a US Senator will contest the results of the Electoral College, seeking to reject the popular and Electoral College win for Joe Biden and keep Trump in power or give him another chance. Everyone's like, oh, that will fail, but that's missing the forest for the trees. Senator Josh Hawley went to Stanford, Yale Law School, and clerked for the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court. His wife also went to Yale Law and clerked for Roberts and she's currently employed by one of the most prestigious law firms in DC. The Hawleys are the people we would normally consider to be the types to uphold norms and champion the rule of law and democracy, but here they are trying to tear it down, and nothing anyone says seems to be able to stop it.

And not one Republican, never mind many, are willing to stand up and tell Trump and SecDef to knock it off over at the Pentagon.

We're in trouble folks. [/quote]
