Just to let everyone know: there’s a scam going around where you get a text from an unknown 800 number reminding you that you have a withdrawal hitting your Venmo account. Ignore it.
If the best thing happens–if Trump is impeached and removed from office, and we don’t end up having a civil war in the process–there’s something very important that we have to do in the aftermath.
Trump supporters and Trump voters cannot be allowed to distance themselves from Trump. He is their albatross. Do not allow them to do what fascist supporters do when their side loses: try to rewrite history to say that they were never his supporters. That they didn’t eagerly excuse and vocally agree his rhetoric. That they didn’t chant “Send Her Back!” and “Lock Her Up!” and cheer for children in cages and the like.
They’re not allowed to try to shift the blame to “Trumpism” or anything of that nature.
This was the Republican Party. He was their candidate, supported by their voters, elected by their voters, enabled by their Congressmen (especially Moscow Mitch), and whose political apparatus was completely behind him, both officially and unofficially (I’m looking at you, Fox News). They don’t get to try to pretend that he was a mistake that they didn’t support.
So watch out for their attempts to rewrite history and say that they didn’t actually support the Orange Autocrat, and force them to own up to it. He’s their shame, and they need to face that consequence.
