re: #249 Dangerman

unless it’s true

Forest/trees: Biden did not call them fascists.
He called out “MAGA” extremists.
Consciousness of guilt.
“And here, in my view, is what is true: MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution. They do not believe in the rule of law. They do not recognize the will of the people.

They refuse to accept the results of a free election. And they’re working right now, as I speak, in state after state to give power to decide elections in America to partisans and cronies, empowering election deniers to undermine democracy itself.

MAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards — backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love.”

Biden threw Republicans a lifeline, a chance to get back on the right side of history. They can condemn the election deniers, conspiracy theorists, and white supremacists wearing your team’s jersey. Or remain complicit and be as equally culpable.
