Donald Trump casts a huge shadow that President Biden can erase only with the tiny flashlight that he has been granted.

This said, the GOP is still tied closely, in all but a few cases, to Donald Trump and increasingly to crimes of abuse of power that he committed in the name of the power of his Party. Add to this, Trump's Supreme Court acts in its majorities as if it is a cell of the John Birch Society in its decisions on reproductive rights and the responsibilities of police, and who knows what is next. It's going to take much more than a little perfume to remove the stench of Donald Trump.

Do you have any idea what a REAL example of "Abuse of Power" actually looks like PB? So, how are the Jan 6th Kangaroo Court ratings these days? Are they any higher than they were several months ago or has America pretty much moved on for the most part like I told you several months ago? Like I've mentioned to you before, you better pick the best  Blue shit hole that you can think of now vs leaving the decision on what to do with all of you up to US.

Abuse of power is really abuse of the powerless. I'm not going to give a scene of the Holocaust or of a lynching, but instead an illustration of a crime against the Human Spirit:

Admit it: there are plenty of books that you would like to see burned. 

Instead of the bodies I might show a monument to those that Satan Hussein had murdered in the Anfal campaign against the Kurds. That involves a regime with some marked similarities to the Third Reich, one of Saddam Hussein's models for how to do politics:

You may not like the way the exposure of evildoers involved in the Capitol Putsch is going, but then again -- maybe they should not have stormed the Capitol. Maybe people should not have tried to forge a state seal on a slate of "alternative" (that is, fake) electors. 

Joe Biden won fair and square, and if you complain that you don't like the results -- well, maybe it is best that we not rely upon the political system to get what we want in economic results and the confirmation of our cultural and scientific views. It didn't take legislation to get General Motors, the successors of Standard Oil (which include Chevron-Texaco, Exxon-Mobil, and the American part of BP) , or Wal-Mart into existence. It did not take legislation to determine the greatness of Mozart, Dostoevsky, and Cezanne. The determination that relativity is real (basically that everything somehow relates to the speed of light in a vacuum) never was discussed in any national legislature, although books written by Einstein would have been surely consigned to the flames  of a Nazi book-burning.     

History demonstrates clearly that, given a choice between the rule of law and mass anger, then the rule of law gives results that cause less embarrassment. In case you are compiling a list of people to execute in the event that your faux patriots take power... I hope that the FBI gets to you first.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
