    I don’t think we’re that far gone yet. People in the government are complying because they’re following the system such as it is. But if there’s a point where the system says Trump is out, and Vance is in, I don’t think many people will cross the line of disobeying that ruling.

      Normally, I’d not be so blunt about this, so apologies but: you’re wrong. The majority of Americans picked fascism in 2024 knowing exactly what they’d get. Nothing anyone did to him mattered before he was given a clear mandate to burn everything down, there’s no reason to believe it will matter now.

      The Democrats need to get dirty or we are all fucked.
