Steven BeschlossI’m all for indictment, and recognize we’re going to suffer a non-stop, unavoidable tirade of crazy from the indicted one. But amid the noise & mania, let’s keep in mind we have democracy to save, rule of law to re-establish, and a climate crisis that requires collective focus and effort.
Rick@StevenBeschloss @deeje If he doesn’t go to jail, I don’t think we can save democracy.

Not one of his cultists will suddenly have an epiphany and become a democracy supporter if he is indicted or convicted.
It is up to us to continue to do the work required to #ProtectOurFreedoms.
Whether or not we succeed is entirely up to us.

@joeinwynnewood @StevenBeschloss @deeje It’s not about convincing his supporters. There need to be consequences to breaking the law and defrauding the People. If he faces none, that will embolden the next trump.
@JetForMe @StevenBeschloss @deeje It will only push the next Trump to be more competent at co-opting the machinery of elections.
Consequences are important for moral reasons among others, but consequences won't put a dent in the ambition of protofascist/authoritarian/MAGA Republican politicians.

deeje@joeinwynnewood @JetForMe @StevenBeschloss I also think we do have to put effort into outreach. They can’t all be hopeless.

Where there are openings, sure. All part and parcel of boxing MAGA Republicans out of power.
Mobilize our base, persuade the mushy middle & help high value voters understand just how important and valuable their vote is.
