MINI-THREAD
1) This week we saw one of the most disgustin' aspects of Trumpism rear it's ugly head. In Texas, an armed MAGA caravan of vehicles intercepted a Biden-Harris campaign bus and attempted to run it off the road.
1) This week we saw one of the most disgustin' aspects of Trumpism rear it's ugly head. In Texas, an armed MAGA caravan of vehicles intercepted a Biden-Harris campaign bus and attempted to run it off the road.
2) Calls to Trump-friendly police for help were met with the response, "not our jurisdiction." At least one of the Biden campaign's vehicles received damaged as a Trump-flag-wavin' black pick-up attempted to force it into another lane at high speed.
3) To add insult to injury, Trump posted footage of the event on his Twitter feed, praisin' the crime with "I love Texas!" Can you imagine that? An American "president" exaultin' the criminal behavior of a vigilante mob that could have easily resulted in the deaths of dozens?
4) What has happened to us? Imagine if Obama, or any other president had done such a thing. It would be met with immediate, relentless calls for impeachment and removal. Why does half the nation celebrate such malicious behavior?
5) Tea's seen packs of wolves with higher moral character. We've literally descended into primal tribalism, where laws have no relevance, but rather does the transactional outcome of an event support "our side."
6) When Biden talks about "restorin' the soul of our nation", it's not lofty rhetoric. He's talkin' about events just like this. If this had been a caravan of rusty Toyota pickups full of bearded, dark-skinned jihadists, Trumpers would be screamin' for nuclear retaliation.
7) The soul of our nation is 100% at stake on Tuesday. It's time for every American to take stock of where we are and how far we've fallen. There is only one correct and moral decision we can make and that is to remove this man that has plunged us into the dark abyss. <eot>
