Ball of rage describes me pretty well right now too. I am just apoplectic at how many Democrats seem fine with charting a course to defeat. Watching Jaime Harrison tweet about how they totally have to do the early roll call vote (which they totally don't!) is the latest thing that has me boiling over, but there are just so many things. I don't understand how they can talk about it in these existential terms and then not do everything to maximize the chance of winning.

[Sarcasm] Do you think the MAGATS would understand, or be able to find some equanimity if Joseph Robinette Biden ordered the DOD to arrest DJT, let's say, next week, charging him with sedition/treason, and forthwith putting him in front of a military tribunal, post haste. This is what DJT claims he wants to do with Liz Cheney and others.

Wouldn't the MAGATS be able to understand the ambitious and the full weaponizarion of the Executive Branch that their demigod so badly desires?

Let's really air our the dirty laundry of the cockroaches (mixed metaphors and all) that set the Proud Boys et al, on the halls of Congress to try and thwart a legal and legitimate election?

[Not sarcasm]

Why the hell not? It's messy. It's overreach. It's outrageous. It's groundbreaking.

Isn't this what the MAGATS have been doing to this country since DJT came aboard?

Why be sober and careful? Seriously? We haven't really tried to Fuck 'em up. Don't scoff. What's to lose? Don't they deserve it?
