One review of Trump’s speech last night “At times, it gave off the vibe of an entertainer in the twilight of his career, playing the hits for a Vegas crowd,” Send in the clowns time. Oh wait, they’re already here.
WAPO ran a story a/b Trump’s activities from sources who want you to think he still functional. He’s not. Is he delivering dynamic speeches or crisply answering questions? No he’s not bc he can’t. He’s fading into oblivion from Frontotemporal dementia. His handlers are hiding him
"Trump is seeking to unravel critical elements of our constitutional structure that make democracy work — confidence in the result of elections and the rule of law. No other American president has ever done this."
"The Republican Party is at a turning point, and Republicans must decide whether we are going to choose truth and fidelity to the Constitution."

"The most conservative of conservative values is reverence for the rule of law. Each of us swears an oath before God to uphold our Constitution. The electoral college has spoken."
https://t.co/Aik18NeMG5
"The question before us now is whether we will join Trump’s crusade to delegitimize and undo the legal outcome of the 2020 election, with all the consequences that might have."
https://t.co/Aik18NeMG5
"While embracing or ignoring Trump’s statements might seem attractive to some for fundraising and political purposes, that approach will do profound long-term damage to our party and our country."

"We must support a parallel bipartisan review by a commission with subpoena power to seek and find facts .... This is critical to defeat the misinformation and nonsense circulating in the press and on social media."
https://t.co/Aik18NeMG5
"We Republicans need to stand for genuinely conservative principles, and steer away from the dangerous and anti-democratic Trump cult of personality."
https://t.co/Aik18NeMG5
"History is watching. ... We must be brave enough to defend the basic principles that underpin and protect our freedom and our democratic process. I am committed to doing that, no matter what the short-term political consequences might be."

@gtconway3d@rickhasen Putin manipulated the 2016 election because he wants to destroy the US. TFG works for Putin. Many in the GOP have also been bought or are being blackmailed. When I look at it like this, it makes sense. Dems need to treat the next 18 months like a war and do whatever it takes.
Last week was the worst of the pandemic to date, with over 5.2 million new cases globally.
Yet the U.S. is sitting on millions of doses of Astra Zeneca vaccine that we haven’t approved for use (and almost certainly won’t need) while the rest of the world scrambles for supply.
@Karenklwb@TomJChicago@UROCKlive1 Sadly, everyone who got out in prison is out or pardoned it was a waste of our tax dollars! Not holding breath for anything to truly happen albeit I wish it would! 🙁🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️👀
I don't care what was in his system. I don't care if he was drunk. I don't care if he was high. I don't care if he was angry. I don't care if he was sad. I don’t care. THAT COP’S KNEE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON THAT MAN’S NECK FOR ALMOST 9 MINUTES. Period. End of story. That’s it.
