Steve Schmidt: Republicans Are Driving Chaos, Promising Order With Easy Scapegoats - Rachel Maddow

(haven't watched video though Maddow and Schmidt are worthy observers and analysts)

And you're right, too. TFG is infamous for breaking things, only now it's up to the next administration to fix unprecedented damage.

“It’s a nice little county you have here, it’d be a shame for something to happen to it…”

And very few people are alert to that fact.

In 2018 it was still a matter of getting out tons more voters than the GOP, showing the world that most Americans wanted democracy, and pinning the authoritarian elements of the GOP to the mat.

Well, the voters did turn up and took over the House of Representatives in a way that sent a message to the GOP.

The message? “Those people must not be allowed to do this again.” And the means chosen to prevent its happening again: suppressing the vote.

It’s being done. It’s been done. Openly and in half the states of the Union.

The second part of the message: “Deny the results even before the election. Claim fraud, claim communist infiltration, claim sharia-law proclaiming muslims, or BLM, have managed to subvert the vote. And never forget, never ever forget, that POCs are in the thrall of the Democrats and intend to wash the white DNA out of the population -- OMG, it’s genocide!”

Unless the current administration crafts a strategy to crush the fascist opposition that the current GOP represents, we’re done as a nation of free, aspiring people.

They are now contesting the results of elections before they even happen. The voter suppression they are working to enact will allow them to choose their voters, only allowing those to vote who will vote for them. They're eliminating the opposition before the vote even takes place. They know that the more people who vote, chances are good that they'll lose. And this needs to be stopped ASAP before we become a one-party nation.
