So they are aware this exists.
I still don't get why trump hasn't been disqualified under the 14th. Pretty fucking clear.
The government is worried about the insane backlash that would happen.
They expect and are probably right in that Jan 6 was just a small taste of what would happen if they tried it.
Remember that almost half of the country still supports R over D, and in law enforcement it is far higher.
This is why movements like the alt-right, who are prone to irrational decisions and violence need to be cut down from the start.
This can only really be solved by increased education, but due to the distrust and missmanagement of the US education system, it is hard to solve this.
As of right now I believe that the leaders are waiting for Trump to fade away.
Less than half. Roughly 1/3 voted for the orange plump ball in the last election. There will be less now, as many factions are seeing through his lies finally, even evangelicals.
The evil isn't as big as it looks, it's just loud.
While good, everyone, please vote.
The Silent Majority is neither the majority, nor silent.
