The GOP/Trump have their cannons aimed right now at our entire system, including our democracy. They have the playbooks, (like Governors mimicking Trump's tactics) and their "news" outlets, plus hundreds of foundations and front organizations.
This is going to be the biggest power grab in the history of this country and the shakeup form this crises will be fully exploited towards that aim. The GOP is complicit with Trump because, everything he says and does is compliant with their impetus to remain in power despite their obsolescence in a changing electorate that indicates demographics will bring the kind of party to its conclusion.
That's why they don't seem like an "opposition party" as a contrast to democrats. They ARE the opposition to our country, most of its people and democracy and they are going to pull out all the stops in the next few months to make democrats into an illegitimate party and cast THEM as the usurpers, which is the typical, Republican method of deception/deflection. We are dealing with a real life gang of villains that rival some real and fictitious ones of the past.
The end game is obvious. If that's shocking then, you don't have enough information, that's all. How to stop this egregious overthrow? Well, find out more first. Nothing is going to happen as long as various, deceptive and intentional fronts they are crafting and displaying are taken to be actual rather than intentional.
This time around, we are not dealing with partisan politics at usual. We are far beyond that and at a critical juncture that needs to be contended with early and with persistence.
