@whowasthatmaskedman The right has almost completely brainwashed their base to fight to give them 100% control of the country. Then they will take those same people's constitutional rights away and give unlimited power to Corporations.
@Pitchblue Well I would have put in a different order. Starting with the Corporations. But the result is the same. There is little in the way of true believers on the Right. (at the top) There is only money..😷
Looking at the entire population of the United States, 15-20 million is a disturbingly high number, but not a majority and not a surprise. These people lack IQ levels, morals, education, common sense and other basic needs that contribute to reasoning skills. They are still at that number a minority, and could be eliminated over time.
@BackyardShaman We can "other" them like the Nazis "othered" political prisoners, gypsies, Jews, etc., in order to exterminate them.
They are our fellow Americans, but they have joined a cult. They need rescuing and deprogramming.
The most successful people deprogram themselves, but I don't see this as terribly likely, given that
1) even catching Trump lying about
• having any classified materials (statement signed by his lawyer[s?] in June),
• that the government "could have just asked" for the materials (they did, more than once, it seems),
• that the material was already declassified (it seems that this is not true, but we'll have to see),
2) seeing
• nearly *30* boxes of materials leave Mar-a-Lago, and
• 11 sets of classified information found among those boxes,
• with some of the classified material in a classification *above* "Top Secret" (where it is only to be viewed in a special, very secure location under the complete control of the government)
seems to NOT mean ANYthing to people who are listening to "Republican" leaders call for tye end of the FBI, etc.
@BackyardShaman I get you. It's frustrating to show people all sorts of evidence and have them just reject it because it didn't come from their favorite rumor mill...
@helenS You know that they copied that from the Greeks right? Just as they copied their pantheon of gods from the Greeks. Is it miraculous to copy a working system from others?
@Scribbles With that many willing, 10% being serious would (of course) mean 1.5 - 2 million people across the US ready to be violent, but I bet that a number of those not actually willing to be violent right now woupd join their brethren *if and when they were to see other Trumpers fighting for his release, restoration, etc.*
:) there are probably 15 to 20 million Americans who believe all police should be fired; and another 15 to 20 million who who believe anyone who doesn't agree with them should be routed up and imprisoned; and another 15 to 20 million who believe ....
'Robert Pape, a professor at the University of Chicago who studies political violence, has conducted half a dozen nationwide polls since the Jan. 6 attack and has repeatedly found the same results: that between 15 million and 20 million American adults believe that violence would be justified to return Mr. Trump to office.'
It’s funny that they call democrats the sheep but they blindly follow this man.
He doesn’t care about his followers one bit and they are stupid to think he does. He does things for HIS benefit only. They believe every word out of his mouth.
They make excuses for him taking these documents but if this was Biden who had these documents you can be damn sure they would want to roast him at the stake.
Didn’t this man just plead the 5th 440 times? Why though if he’s innocent? Can someone tell me.
@SW-User From mentally unstable people committing suicide by cop on January 6 to Alex Jones lawyer accidently sending his complete phone download to the opposition lawyers in his defamation case (which is now in the hands of the Jan 6 committee). Thank goodness the right wing is being supervised by the Keystone Cops running the MAGA Morons. And collecting a few Darwin Awards on the way. I wish I could say wiping out all republicans was going to solve the problem.. But I suppose you have start somewhere.😷
