    This thread is close to where I land on the question of "how worried should we be about Trump's authoritarianism?"https://twitter.com/lionel_trolling/status/1338118372077297666 …

    I think the total divorce from reality evinced by these efforts to overturn the election are not a positive sign for the country's political life and I really don't understand the continued "Oh, haha, it's all ridiculous nonsense" in some quarters

        The way I put it in a convo is we have a problem, that problem failed its first efforts, that problem didn't go away.

        As with fundamentalist religious believers it is hard to tell if an individual is just asserting x or actually believes x.

        I think one thing people forget is that, literally the day after he left office, people who spent 8 years vociferously defending every action by Bush, large or small, stopped mentioning him entirely. I think we could be surprised by how quickly Trump’s star fades.

        Tbh, the fact that we are still having arguments about his real nature is the problem. Nobody can think of anything else. I’m not saying we’re wrong to worry. He stirs a constant horrified fascination that is not going away, and that’s a bad omen for the future.

        Worried. And if we don’t remember why FDRism/social democracy was our centrist compromise between Communism and Fascism, we will remain utterly incapable of meeting this moment I see no hint of our reactionary “centrists” moving in the appropriate direction

        Isn't the core issue for Clintonists Democrats delivering something for their voters? Clintonism = borrow money or die in pointless wars NAFTA - we will export your jobs by removing labor advantages Wars - We will keep voting for the military ind. complex Banks - Here's credit

        I'm very worried. So I look for who has defeated Trump and Trumpism over and over again. Biden beat him at the polls, then in the courts, calmly, quietly, decently and repeatedly.
