If there’s anyone in the GOP who can relate in a direct and personal way to how right Joe Biden was about threats to democracy, it’s Mike Pence. (via MaddowBlog)
By any fair measure, the response from Democrats was muted, to the extent that Trump’s opponents cared at all. It wasn’t as if the Republican’s use of “fascists” immediately sparked a public conversation, front-page headlines and an avalanche of op-eds. In general, few cared.
There’s no great mystery as to why: There was no serious pushback in response to Trump’s rhetoric because it was plainly unserious. Democrats, among others, seemed wholly unconcerned that voters might actually believe that that they resembled fascists. Much of the political world simply shrugged its collective shoulders, realized that the then-president routinely used needlessly inflammatory rhetoric detached from reality, and moved on.
“But there is no question that the Republican Party today is dominated, driven and intimidated by Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans, and that is a threat to this country.”
