1. This x 1000

Some people I know are acting like putting 2020 behind us is the end all be all. Nothing changed yesterday except we changed some numbers on a calendar.
We must not forget that.
January 20th will be a fabulous day, but it brings with it many hardships and struggles. We must all work hard to get through them together as a Democratic nation. I expect NO help or assistance from the repugs. Quite the opposite.

2. I can read Twitter, but I'm not a registered user. I really hope someone will convert Steve's thread

to a "thread reader app" soon, so the whole piece can be read in a single page.

3. Transcribed text:

"2021 will be a hard year in the life of the American nation. There is a great struggle that lies before us and our disbelief at its arrival must not blind us to the lethal danger it poses to the American experiment.'

5. That's not the thread, the thread is 16 sections long.

There is an app that converts Twitter threads into a long unrolled page - it's called the "Thread Reader App" - that's what I'd like to see happen.

7. Sorry about that...

You are correct; I had not clicked through to notice.

4. Same here, scarletwoman. I rely on the kindness of DUers to unroll tweets they refer to.

6. Well, I'll keep refreshing that Twitter thread and maybe someone there will do it eventually.

Trumpism is an American autocratic movement with Fascistic markers. There are seven specific parts that comprise its core 1. THE LEADER. Donald Trump is the unquestioned leader of this movement. It is a cult of personality and there are no serious challengers against his (1)

22. Actually, that's the one I missed, so thanks...

Steve’s kind of a terrifying read sometimes. I’m really glad he’s a warrior for the republic.

10. Thanks, but let's show some love to bloggers who called this very thing ...

...back when Steve was still officially on Team Evil.

We have plenty of people who have called it right, have excoriated the Republicans for what they are, have plenty of great, entertaining quotes, but instead of being elevated for all that, they've been consigned to a dustbin while everybody claps for NeverTrumpers for finally noticing things that were self-evident 20 years ago.

It would be nice to unwind it all when the quotes are posted.

The poisonous bounty of Trump’s catastrophic Presidency is ready for harvest and the whole world will get to watch his seditious antics play out during a joint session of Congress on January 6th. It will play out as a farce and it will fail. Nearly 100 years on America will 2/

the Presidential election decisively. The election was free, fair and legitimate. There is no evidence of any wide spread fraud. Allegations of fraud are premeditated lies being made by a rancid assortment of Trump’s stooges and propagandists. With the exception of a few 4/

Such actions are a grievous sin against America democracy and a brutal betrayal of their oaths of office and duty. They will be desecrating the blood sacrifices of 13 generations of American Patriots of all creeds and origins who died so that our children could be free. 6/

Every single GOP member of the House who says Biden won in a rigged election was just elected on the same ballots.

They should refuse to be seated if they believe the election was rigged.

RIght?
