...but it's not gaining traction with the majority of Americans. If anything, it's making millions of people like myself realize that we need to be prepared to fight GOP fascism in whatever way is necessary to save our democracy.

So while the GOP election fraud BS does fire up their brainwashed cult base, I think they underestimate how many people it's driving away & how much it's making millions of people more determined than ever to defeat them.

Supporting the Texas fraudit means you agree that T**** is the legitimate president.
