US Politics Thread

I think Fox needs to tread very carefully.

It’s always been dishonest but some of the rhetoric they pumped out when the raid first happened and they were struggling to find a United line to fall behind was downright dangerous and the kind of stuff that would look really, really bad in the aftermath of bloodshed.

If Trumps lot try and fail with violence there’s going to be one hell of a backlash and something like a new fairness doctrine could come out of it and permanently cripple them.
I have said previously in this thread, I truly believe they are heading for a civil war. Nobody seems to be listening to the mood music.
 
Who are the two sides in the Civil War 2.0?

There will be terrorist actions. Not a civil war.
As long as the DoJ can successfully deal with the Trump crime family, and the rest of the fucknuckles that participated in the attempted coup, including all those lawmakers and members if government who lied for and covered up for them, then the country can start to move on.

The fucknuckles haven't moved on from Jan 6, over 2 years later. In fact they have all (and I include the GOP) doubled down In their belief that Trump won.
 
Call it what you like it will still be American citizen against American citizen. In my book that is civil war. Fellow countrymen fighting fellow countrymen.
I don’t think we call The Troubles a Civil War. Semantics aside, I see the worst case scenario as something more akin to that than the 1860s.

Awful and unpleasant nonetheless.

The coup participants have been gradually but insistently prosecuted and summarily jailed, their lives ruined forever, most of them blubbering and pleading for forgiveness. Politicians who publicly supported all this still have the shield of “political persecution” (including Trump) but that isn’t going to last forever. A few owe ALL to Trump, and they’ll never get off his dick, but most GOPers want well and done with him so they can escape having to kowtow to his depraved criminality and that of his cult members.

I was thinking more the likes of Devin Nunez, Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, Lauren Boebert, MTG, Rick Scott (and others) who have profited and continue to feed at the teat of DJT rather than the dumb fucking zombies who fell for his shtick and donated to the cause.

Yes I get that. They are saying what the base want to hear to keep the gravy chain going. Apart from Cheney and Kinzinger I have heard no ranking or high ranking GOP member condem the dangerous rhetoric that is flying about. Not least the threats to FBI and their families.

Rand Paul is a not right as well.
The day he stood in that doorway and went up against John Brennan for a bill (I forget which), is forever etched in my mind.
