Democrats have slowly lost their share of power by allowing incremental erosion of the intent of the law without much of a whimper. They have long since given the military to the republicans. Also the law enforcement community. With the current co-option of the USSC, the legal system, too, is lost. It appears the DOJ can't get out of the planning stage so it remains only a vague hope at this time. I mean, who's going to arrest these traitors any way? With everybody so concerned with doing things correctly, an obvious reaction to an intent to not do things their way, the ONLY element of control Democrats have left is their MAJORITY in the population.
These endless recounts, no matter how farcical or insincere, serve to diminish that last and only evidence of our democracy. The will of the people. When we see these monsters quote the constitution to justify their outrages it sickens the body politic.
If Democrats don't make some real headway, and soon, fascism's on the table. Better get used to eating it. Sometimes it's a little too spicy. Others, it's too bland.
