As Trump's legal saga unfolds, his followers are sticking their heads in the sand

“That didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is, that’s not my fault.
And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.”108
Because they agree he lost a free and fair election right?
Right?

Germany 1930s. VOTE against these fuckers.
62Majority of republicans are religious idiots. If you believe in imaginary friends that give you sky cake, then you can believe literally anything.
61Don't mistake bad faith arguments with beliefs.
They believe in acquiring power in any way necessary. For most, that means pandering to their constituents, which means saber rattling for MAGA.
Just like you can't take the religious right for their "beliefs" either. They are just exploiting a rabid easily rallied base.
47Nothing tells me someone has a very specific bone to pick more than jumping to blaming the Republicans on Christianity. It's putting the cart before the horse, and taking too much of what they say at face value. Remembering, of course, they're all pathological liars.
It's kind of depressing to know even some people on the left haven't figured out yet who these fuckers actually are. Religion is not at their core, nor is conservativism, not even nationalism. Those are all just addons.
It's pure, uncut selfishness, greed, and hate. All other belief systems are erected on top of that as needed, and often interchangeably.

Ugh. Just serve the Flavor Aid already and end this ongoing nightmare.
46What they all believe is so inconsistent across the spectrum of conservatives anyway - it was Antifa! It was the deep state! It was mostly peaceful tourists!
41I've heard those contradictions spouted by single people on multiple occasions - whether they're lying, morons, or both, they're a danger.

Not sure about the country as a whole, but at least in my experience the republicans I know would never have said they thought he tried to begin with. Usually they see the capital riots as something beyond what Trump was expecting, as untrue as that has come been shown to be.
36My father still thinks the insurrection was just a handful of people waving flags outside the Capitol. They never got the story because they are hooked on Fox news

RepublicansAmerican Fascist Party11I think jailing the Orange Menace will snap a lot of them out of it. A few will probably be ballsy enough to take some kind of action, but they'll be the minority and look like thugs. It just sucks that people are probably going to get hurt over this. I say just let the justice system do its thing.
11Let's hope so. Some are threatening civil war if he's convicted and sent to prison, but then again, we're also talking about Snack Team 6. So I don't assume there's any bite behind that bark. I just know that after January 6th, they're absolutely going to try again.
12Meal Team [January] 6, you mean? But going by how the insurrection went, I see an attempt at repeating something like that going over like a lead balloon. On the other hand, I can absolutely see a significant spike in domestic terror happening

I think that jailing him is likely to lead to riots and violence from his supporters in the streets, stoked by his partners in government
1Good. Then we can put them in prison where they belong.

This reality is absurd enough that there's a very real possibility he starts claiming the sun isn't real and we'll have actual arguments about whether the sun exists or whether it's Space Jew Democrats that are trying to confuse us...

Of course they insist that- they were involved then and don't want consequences now
7You're going to have to give them the benefit of the doubt on this one, it's not like most of them had a front row seat to an insurrection or something.
4Right? It certainly wasn't being broadcast on every news station for weeks.

2They're sounding more and more like Holocaust deniers every day: "That never happened... but it was totally justified."
