Probably. But your article did not provide factual proof that Trump planned a coup.

At this point it doesn't appear to matter. Republicans are running scared and jumping ship. They seem to embrace the notion that getting on the side of totally eradicating and punishing Trump will save themselves. Which may result in the opposite result.

They may not be aware that the rising tide of cancellation includes most of them.

Were they lying then. Or are they lying now. Not an attractive picture. Not an assurance of being a bulwark against the destruction of the Constitution. Back to Republican=Democrat Light. Very weak and unworthy of midterm success.

They don't deserve participation in the American Experiment. But neither do the Dems. Neither do most of us.

It will be interesting. Good luck.

On the bright side, enough people may get so thoroughly fed up with being blocked by big tech from saying what they want and hearing something other than the ruling class line, that they will within a year or two establish a base that allows them access to what they want to say and what they want to learn and know other than the boring, restrictive monotone of acceptable speech.

And there should be enough people like that to make stiff competition with the current oligarchs. That process has begun. Hope our fascistic symbiosis between big government and big business doesn't crush it.
