Rick—I am so very sorry for everything you have been through because you are an honest and decent man. So many of us are grateful to you in ways we cannot even express. I may sound absurd, but you are part of my pantheon of heroes.
This is a chilling situation Doug Jones is gaming out. I wish I thought it unnecessary to do this, but we must be prepared for all sorts of possibilities that Trump himself is setting in place way before the election. Thank you for letting everyone know what this could be like.
I suggest that we would all be better off if rallies on both sides were not covered on TV. We should see debates that are factchecked in real time or interviews. Trump is just too dangerous—he is a liar and a bully with no regard for anyone or anything, and Vance is a good deal worse. (Vance has been so many things to so many people. He must have pledged himself to a minimum of three different religions that I know of as just one example, and been a Trump foe then ally—he has no stable identity.) If we don’t somehow put the reins on misinformation, Trump wins the false info wars. And if his rallies are not televised, Harris’ should not be either. Harris would still have an advantage because she does so many personal appearances that more people will actually have interacted with her—but that’s Trump’s lookout.
As for Trump supporting members of Congress, most are grifters, not believers. Who knows what they would do in the face of a really serious situation that they had previously sampled in 2020. They were plenty scared then, and said so in the immediate aftermath of the insurrection. Who knows what they would do. We know Josh Hawley will run away.
Trump is calling for the overthrow of the government. That used to be treason. How did we get here? At least some people are figuring out how to get us through it. Again, many thanks.
P.S. My cats Winston (Churchill) and Emmeline (Pankhurst) send regards to Elton.
I’d like all the media to stop talking about him and focus on how great she is. Show that she’s fighting for everyone in America. Show how she’s fighting for women. Show her story. Fuck his ongoing bullshit. Stop giving him free press
