Current Demonstrations Are Glimpse Into The Future [View all]

For all of those people who think voting against Biden is a way of sending a "message", look at how Republicans, the Trump cult and their supporters are reacting to the demonstrations.

Look at Speaker Johnson, listen to the right-wing rhetoric and watch the police use of force. Now imagine a Trump administration. Do you think the Gaza situation would improve? Do you think Bibi would get less support or be restrained? How about the police?

I remember 2016 and listening to some of my very Liberal friends trying to rationalize a Stein vote or a blank. They couldn't see a difference between Hillary and Trump. Well, looking at the Supreme Court, now they can. A difference that will last the rest of their lives.

A President's term is not just 4 years. Court appointments last a literal lifetime.
