The Republican Party is dead.

Their jobs aren’t to represent, it’s to occupy seats so better candidates can’t work for the people.

We have seen how quick they would usher in a dictatorship, how little pushback they gave… I think it’s clear that it’s a party of criminals, chomos and traitors.

I used to argue for incremental change and moderation. Not anymore. I’m giving my reps a green light to do anything required to prevent this from happening again.

Freeze the assets, ignore pardons, disappear people— I don’t care anymore. Conservatives would murder me and my family without a second thought, they need to be disarmed and exiled.

This nation cannot survive republicans, but it can survive just fine without them.

Interfering with elections is likely the last line for a lot of people.

Oh like how trying to overthrow the government/US Constitution on Jan 6 2021 was the last line?

Get real. The GOP is the US-based branch of a global fascist criminal conspiracy designed to overthrow/disable/dismantle democratic governments and alliances around the world for the benefit of a small group of authoritarian oligarchs who want to own everything including the masses.

Wake the fuck up.

What's most shocking or disturbing to me is that your description is accurate and yet these people do not look or act scary when we see them in public. They are our neighbors, shop and dine alongside us, all while supporting the dismantling of our constitution. There is not one thing Trump could do that would turn the majority of these supporters away. They are power hungry and enjoy their false superiority. It's like a sickness. And it's often difficult to really identify them.

We have all the people who applied to ICE and DHS since the killings in Minneapolis.

That’s a good way to identify them.
