A lot of progressives thought Trump was a mastermind conspiring with Putin who had an actually plausible plan to overthrow "democracy," whatever that means (conservatives are now accusing Biden of doing the same thing, but neither side has ever defined what it means, and I doubt they'd ever reach consensus on it). Fast forward seven years, with the Jan. 6 hearings in the rear view mirror and the indictments laying out likely accurate facts about Trump's inner circle and one thing is inarguably clear:
These "authoritarians" everyone was in such a lather about were stone cold idiots. They'd as much chance of overturning that election as that whack-job army of dead enders who ran amuck through the Capitol.
2016-Present has been a screenplay cribbing the darkest bits of Monty Python and
Dr. Strangelove.
