I'm not sure I get the point of this and the "fascist" comments.Trump and his suporters brought the shame on themselves. Joe just pointed it out.
I'm not disagreeing with the point - indeed, democracy is at risk when a highly-animated third of the population has been conned into believing it is rigged. And yes, the rise of the alternate universe has put us at, literally, a historic moment. The country is more fragile than it has been since the Civil War. And yes, the parallels between this movement and Europe of 85 years ago are undeniable. A cult of personality surrounding one profoundly damaged man.
Yet...
These comments have only added to their persecution complex, their paranoia, and their rage. It's almost as if Biden is daring them to act. It's not like this isn't calculated somehow. It just seems like a weird time to do this.
Well, I don't know. I'm not used to living in historic times, I guess.
