The problem with him is really the cult he tries to get to act outside of the law. They are enough that even just as voters they were a problem, but when armed and radicalized, become something much more sinister.
The only part of that I disagree with is the part that implies that is the only problem with him. Otherwise, yes.
I have a cousin that disappeared off Facebook that was a huge Trump fan (he literally commented “Don’t worry, we still love you, President Trump” after the election loss). It’s possible he unfriended me, which means I wouldn’t see his profile or anything, but the timing is odd - you’d think he would have done that when we were arguing about, say, Covid in 2020. It makes me wonder where he was on January 6 and where he is now.
If you are curious can’t you just check out lic records to see if he got arrested? Or do you think he didn’t get caught and is just trying to keep his head down?
I suppose I could, but eh, effort. I did a quick search and didn’t find anything. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was there but never went in the Capitol, or something like that. Or it’s even possible he wasn’t there and is horrified by what happened that day; I don’t know.
After another Q-anon relative called me a pedophile for voting for Biden over Trump, he actually was like, “Whoa, slow down there, let’s not be crazy…” (and then the other relative doubled down). So he may not have been as all in as it seemed and just deleted his FB account for other reasons.
It was really odd…he drove an electric Nissan Leaf (from one of the first years they made them) and loved it and would often post things like “150,000 trouble free miles and still extremely happy with it”. He’s also heavily into cycling. Neither are really what you’d expect from a Trump fan - but I guess it can be an attractive cult.
That has ALWAYS been Trump’s strategy for everything.
And it has worked spectacularly well. Hoping someone will have the guts to finally impose consequences on him.
It worked because of our culture of billionaire worship, something we are long overdue on abandoning
Right? I was gonna say. Americans are some of the weakest minded people on the planet, maybe behind north Korea or something.
Lol riiiight, as if Q Anon mania didn’t spread out all over the world
The world loves American exports, including far-right conspiracy theories.
