* To be clear, I do *not* want Donald Trump dead. Not unless he dies of a heart attack while being dragged to his execution following his due-process conviction for #TRE45ON. Not at the hands of his fellow self-serving #MAGAts. Not at the hands of the Iranians. Not at the hand OF GOD.

As I've noted before, the tattered shreds of our Constitutional system would simply hand power to the much younger (and, sadly, more intelligent) but just as fascist Reichsleiter JD Vance, and Gilead would roll on. No, I truly pray God waits at least until--in sha' Allah--we have a newly-elected Democratic Congress to impeach HIM, and a Democratic Speaker of the House to take the reins.

But this post was WAAAYY too good not to boost on the Ides of March! 😅

@xankarn As a conservative, there's a lot in that critique of relativism that resonates with me--which is why I was a Republican ACTIVIST for many of those years.

What I fault Trump--and my former party--for (aside from the blatant hypocrisy you lay bare in the rest of your thread) is their willingness to throw the Constitution and democracy ITSELF under the bus (and get in bed with a hostile foreign power during time of war--you know, #TRE45ON) to "win," rather than doing the hard work of MAKING A BETTER CASE AGAINST relativism and learning HOW TO EFFECTIVELY EDUCATE the American people about its dangers--but then respecting their right (given BY GOD HIMSELF, in addition to as citizens of a democracy) to choose in this world TO FOLLOW IT ANYHOW, and leave accountability for that to the Almighty.
