The Only Good Democrat

I am not sure why I bother taking five minutes to point things out like this, but today, the President of the United States retweeted a remark from a Republican leader saying that "the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat."

We have now reached the point where the President can call for the murder of the 63 million people who voted against him, without a single mainstream media outlet questioning his right to be President.  Of course, if confronted, he will claim it was all just a joke, the same way a playground bully would say that shoving that second grader into a garbage can was just a joke, but it is not a joke.  Today is the day that Trump also questioned the right of media platforms not just to oppose him but to even point out when he lies, threatening to reverse decades of judicial precedent to allow them to be sued for doing so.

Silencing the opposition, and calling for their death.  It's all so normal now, just part of the game, while the press devotes endless time to dissecting something stupid that Joe Biden said.  That's how we got this would-be dictator to begin with, and that is how we could be stuck with him again.
