conix, Midterms sure will. See, restripe, America’s Anti-Democratic Movement

"Midterms will determine what is important to the American people."

"Extremists seize back control of the Republican Party's message machine"

[...]

An anti-democratic movement, inspired by Donald Trump but much larger than him, is making significant progress, as my colleague Charles Homans has reported .. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/11/us/politics/trust-in-elections-trump-democracy.html . In the states that decide modern presidential elections, this movement has already changed some laws and ousted election officials, with the aim of overturning future results. It has justified the changes with blatantly false statements claiming that Biden did not really win the 2020 election.

The movement has encountered surprisingly little opposition. Most leading Republican politicians have either looked the other way or supported the anti-democratic movement. In the House, Republicans ousted Liz Cheney from a leadership position because she called out .. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/11/us/politics/liz-cheney.html .. Trump’s lies.

The pushback within the Republican Party has been so weak that about 60 percent of Republican adults now tell pollsters that they believe the 2020 election was stolen — a view that’s simply wrong.

Straw man argument, as no one is arguing inflation didn't appear before Ukraine. TWO Covid Relief Bills....one by Trump, one by Biden... and the worldwide disruption of the supply chains are the cause of WORLD Wide inflation. So no deflection.

Your culture war 'issues' are for the rubes; the ill-informed and the too easily frightened. They are the means for your narrow ends.

BLM will be canceled out by the arrest and convictions of all of the RW ilk.....not many 'fine people'....from 1/6. And there's not a chance in hell that the federal grand juries will not return indictments on those who stirred up the treasonous insurrection.

Back to your ends justify the means ethos. Substitute Trump for Wales and I think that you'll get it. It accurately describes all Trump supporters.

Please explain the significance of this quotation from A Man for All Seasons: "For Wales? Why Richard, it profit a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world ... but for Wales!"

The significance of the quotation "For Wales? Why Richard, it profit a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world ... but for Wales!" from A Man for All Seasons is that the fact that Rich has accepted the position of Attorney-General for Wales indicates that he's sold his soul for a pittance.
