The colleges, law firms, corporations, news organization and others JUST DON'T GET IT

They think they are still living in a past fantasy world, where they could kiss Retrumplican ass and shit all over American democracy while Retrumplicans have power, and then rely on Democratic afministrations to come in and Kumbaya their asses.

That world DOESN'T exist anymore...so I promise you...

But I don't really think our party will be able to withstand a few WaPo and Times opeds about what sore winners we are and how it's "time to come together." "Didn't so and so win because people were sick of partisanship?"

sigh.

We'd maintain norms and not direct the DOJ, allowing it to maintain it's independence.

doublesigh.

I'd take all of that in a second over what we have now, but I just don't think the party is built for vengeance.

we don't deserve to keep our democracy.

There simply HAS to be a reckoning for what these MAGAts have wrought.
