I'm guessing the people who voted for this are not surprised. They either expected it, want it, or don't care.
It shouldn't be surprising to anyone here with a functioning brain and is roughly aware of what is going on. Expect more of this.
- sanderjd 2y agoThe question is whether "don't care" will remain true. I think what we're seeing in this moment is the overreach that precedes the backlash, like clockwork.
- HumblyTossed 2y agoIt's too late for backlash. If we survive the next four years, we'll be lucky.
- sanderjd 2y agoNo it isn't. Backlashes tend to be obvious two years after presidential elections when the midterm elections happen.
- insane_dreamer 2y agoI don't think any backlash will dissuade Trump from anything. He's not up for re-election for one, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't give 2F whether Vance gets elected after him or not. The time for the backlash would have been to refuse to accept the election results and storm the Capitol since that's apparently totally cool to do now.
- sanderjd 2y agoI agree with you that he won't care or be dissuaded, but that doesn't mean that backlash doesn't matter.
