Sure they're "worried" but we've heard it all before, haven't we?
I really can't stand the number of Republicans at every level of government and discourse who are willing to mildly furrow their brows at Trump's shitty, fascistic authoritarian behavior, only to openly vote for him on election day. They really don't give a fuck what happens to the country and are just as likely as Trump to sell their soul to the highest bidder in order to grab as much power as possible.
Exactly. It's still team sports at the end of the day and they'll fall in line behind whatever wins. And Trump wins for them but sure, a few "adults in the room" make it more palatable
Exactly. If you're I'm not happy that people in your party are copying Nazis, but refuse to denounce them, guess what? You're a Nazi also. Maybe you're a Nazi who is willing to oppose this in as mild a manner as possible that doesn't lose you political power, but that's not really a good distinction.
your the following orders type nazi (not you i mean the individual you are hypothetically talking about) in that situation.
