This is the correct answer. It's just that the crazies, racists, and terrorists in the Republican party stopped being scared to come out in public around 2008 and even more in 2016.

Israel is the ancestral land of the Jews, its government is Jewish, its people are Jewish. If you don’t support Israel, you are an anti-Semite.
And if you support Germany, you're pro-Holocaust and anti-French/Polish/British/American.

Indeed. In the US we like to think we're exceptional as far as nations and history goes. The reality is we're just one cult of personality away from 1930's Germany or a third world banana republic, and the Constitution and our form of government falls apart once a few key positions are replaced with irrational choices. We're still debating whether the president can unequivocally absolve themselves of any responsibility for committing the worst crimes against the state, or humanity for that matter.
The war was won due to American equipment and supplies, the British providing a staging and entry point into western Europe, and the Soviets providing tons of soldiers. The Soviets were brutal, to the point Germans would rather die than be captured by Soviets, and being captured by the Americans was seen as something of a blessing.

He was mayor of Baddock, a town near Pittsburg that had and probably still has a lot of problems. He has tattoos on his one arm of the dates that people were murdered in the town. I live on the other end of the state so I don't know Braddock well, but I believe he did quite a bit for the community. He's very straightforward and honest about issues in his life, and many people here can relate to him. His wife Gisele is from Brazil and is an activist and involved in a lot of charity and social efforts. Fetterman doesn't just talk the talk, he walks the walk.
Well, he is correct in that it would have be historic. A bigger opportunity for Pence right now would be to have some balls and a backbone, call out Trump for the criminal, insurrectionist, and traitor that he is, and lead the Republican party back to its so-called morality, law-and-order, and "character matters" roots. I'm not a fan of Pence by any means (I totally disagree with him on nearly every issue), but this is the real historic tragedy of Pence and his political career.
he would probably just appeal to the Supreme Court and get them to make up some reason to rule in his favor.
This would undoubtedly become the pinnacle of the Roberts Court being on the wrong side of history, though maybe they'd find a way to top that....
I only hope someone in every state brings a case.
That's my hope as well. All it takes is for Trump to be removed from the ballot in one or two swing states to have him lose the election.
(Just to be clear to the studio audience, I'm not in favor of "rigging" the system on a technicality so Republicans lose / Democrats win. This is a matter of keeping a criminal defendant insurrectionist and mis-handler of highly classified information out of perhaps the most powerful position in the world.)

The 14th Amendment is consider to be "self-executing" and public election officials can disqualify candidates when presented with a plausible argument.
A lot of the people who "really care" about voting don't have any clue about the candidates, democracy, or the Constitution. They just have a lot of time on their hands and watch a lot of TV telling them what to be afraid of and who to vote for, basically straight Republican.
