That’s one I don’t worry about. I just assume all of them are, or are listening to ones who are. It’s the people who aren’t aware it’s going on that concern me. They’re either OK with that, or they’re unaware that it’s going on. Either way they are willing to act on Russian propaganda.
The other day on Twitter I was reading a post, I think it was from Josh Hawley, and down in the comments was a Steve Bannon tweet. I was confused. Is he allowed to have electronics for an hour a day? Was someone else using his Twitter account? Did they lock up a replicant of Bannon and the real deal Stevie is sequestered somewhere here in the real world planning, scheming, and advising DonOLD all this time?
And who the Fuck thought that having a kids with Bannon was a good idea?
A few days before I left home I turned off any kind of broadcast or streaming TV (I just couldn’t take it anymore) and now a week traveling outside the US… It has been a nice break from the crushing political advertising in a swing state.
I’d argue that we should be doing that, FULL VOLUME! The oligarchs are already unhappy with Democrats and Harris in particular scare the hell out of these folks because they’ll let the Trump Tax cuts expire. They’re protected their loved ones and will fight to keep all of them.
Having conservatives on the Court would be a marked improvement but that would not be the goal of a Trump 2.0 administration or any of the other pretenders in the GOP.
Trump first act would be mass pardons: himself, his family, cronies, henchmen, his political allies, convicted Republican politicians, donors, celebrities he knows, J6ers who beat cops, oligarchs. The tone will be set on Day 1 that this is going to be straight gangster thuggery.
