(3,313 posts)20. Unfortunately, I think you may be right.
They are purposely gathering too much power, too fast. And I do not believe for a minute that they are going to relinquish that power through elections. They have way too much to lose if Democrats get majorities in either or both houses.
Trump and the GOP minions are also generally organized and armed to the teeth, while we are still hoping for some meaningful gun control. While we don't want to become drooling gun-humpers but we also have zero intimidation power and we constantly get treated as such.
We need to face the cold, hard reality that these treasonous fascists may need to be removed from power rather than voted out.

They are Republicans in the age of Trump. That is what is wrong with them.

They are doing what their wealthy owners tell them to do. There's no mystery here.

I always think that I simply cannot despise MAGA any more intensely than I already do.

I'm not sure, actually I know, that "in awe" would have been the adjective I would have used to describe this
