Raskin: Here’s the thing that gets me about that which is the way the right-wing in America devours its own. I have watched Donald Trump destroy the lives of people around him.. I mean how far does this have to go before you people wake up?

1. Epps?

I try to keep up, but does anyone know what this guy do? Why are going after him?

[Nevilledog]

3. He's a MAGAt that they've decided, with no evidence, is an FBI provocateur

[Corgigal]

4. Oh god lord,

their circle is getting smaller and smaller, and they are starting to strangle themselves.

Making crap up, they don’t play well in the adult world.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

7. The infighting and name-calling at the FReak site has never been higher and is intense. . . . nt

[Lonestarblue]

10. They're so wrapped up in their conspiracies that they probably think someone ironed their

Cheerios to make Oat Flakes out of them.

6. He was at J6 and was falsely targeted as being an FBI provocateur

By the maga and q nutjobs. This was at the time that they were making excuses and blaming "Antifa" and the deep state for the J6 insurrection. Since then the nitwits have continued to ruin the poor bastard'd life and continue with the deep state bullshit.

2. Most trump voters were as angry as he was that a Black man was prez and that a Black

man spoke back to trump and other white people.

He WILL (if he can) have his political opponents jailed or killed and he WILL have many of us the same and they will still support him.

[Skittles]

5. absolutely correct

I've said it many times, if Trump could have his critics rounded up and executed HE WOULD

[Lemon Lyman]

8. This

None of them have the stones to take him on. He laid waste to all 137 of their candidates in 2015/2016. He bullied them all off the stage. None of them are willing to fight him and his freaky followers. They're all cowards.

15. The Rethuglicans didn't even have a platform at their 2020 convention other than

"Whatever Trump said."

[Heather MC]

9. A better question is when are democrats going to realize that republicans are monsters?

We keep thinking maybe they'll snap out of it, but I've been watching politics since I was in the 4th grade and I can tell you the republicans have always been horrible

That's why even in 4th grade I was the only kid to make a Walter Mondale paltermandel political poster when everyone else made a Reagan one.

This is nothing new, it's just finally the republicans are unafraid to say the quiet parts out loud and
A lot of democrats apparently just lived in some sort of LA LA land that not all republicans are horrible.

So stop asking the republicans to snap out of it, and just start focusing on defeating them because that's the only thing we should ever do, is actively defeat them.

Nothing these people want for the country will actually benefit anyobelieve benefit anyone but themselves and most of the time it doesn't even benefit them it's just selfish cruel greed.

Can we all stop pretending that they're gonna snap out of it, comma this is who they are and so they chose to be all the way back in 1964 when they got angry that black women finally got the right the vote.

When they welcomed all the races Dixie crats into their party. That's when they planted the sea to be the worst party that ever existed at least in my lifetime lol

13. The radicalized Republican party prefers ignorance and hate; it helps push their agenda.

That's all the party is about -- ignorance and hate. The Fascist Oligarch eXtremists behind it will use any group they can stir up with hate to gain power. It's an evil coalition of leftovers; those people who want to subdue, suppress, exclude, eliminate "others".

[Texin]

11. Raskin's right, but my husband told me about his lunch

with and old/best friend of his today, who was engaging in the old "whataboutism" Fux spews syndrome. "but whatabout Biden?".

[bringthePaine]

12. this cat is a huge fav 👍

[LudwigPastorius]

14. A good percentage of the MAGAts will never wake up.

I met an old bartender in Germany in the early 80s who was still convinced that Hitler was a decent man who was steered wrong by the generals and higher ups in the Nazi party.
