    Ye gods, America, you had four years and an open-and-shut case and it wasn’t enough to get rid of the orange ghoul.

      And just watch the neck breaking speed the Republicans rush through their political persecution cases. I expect to see Democrats in prison by the end of the first or second year.

      :(

          My point is that fascism builds until the root causes and those fanning its flames are rooted out and destroyed ala Napoleon, Mussolini, Hitler; or they burn on and continue to oppress under an authoritarian like Franco, Pinochet or Putin. There aren’t a whole lot of examples in between where an authoritarian relinquishes power after a short term.

          I know which one I prefer, and, from example, we can see a little jail time is insufficient.

          Shitlibs love making excuses for accepting a tiered “justice” system, they have no points, they just love the taste of boot.
