They want it. These people are fed up with democracy.
When democracy sees them losing power, rather than adjusting their platform or working toward compromise, their decision has always been to subvert the system. Gerrymandering, voter restrictions, election fraud, insurrection, and openly courting the enemies of the country are all preferable to losing power, to these people.
In a country where democracy makes their kind a minority, it's democracy that must yield to them, not the other way around. They're only American as long as doing so gets them their way.
I just don't understand why Trump is simping so hard for Putin. These Maga fascists are just blindly following that asshole.
We have trump and his ties to Russia, seven republicans being the first delegation to visit Russia since it illegally annexed Crimea, Russian oligarch investment in McConnell's state, NRA facilitating contact between Russia and republicans, and the list goes on. It just doesn't seem to matter to enough people.
