One of the few issues where Trump still carries majority support is on the closure of our borders and the deportation of unauthorized immigrants. Virtually every other campaign promise to working people has been completely repudiated.
The paranoid fantasy that he can steal the election in 2026 or 2028 is directed connected to the fevered dream that Jan 6 was an effort to overturn the 2020 election. If you are serious about building a real movement to make sure that 2026 (or 2028) aren't simply another volley in the ping pong game between Democrat and Republican corporate mouthpieces, you need to focus on the issues that concern Americans outside NYC.
What fevered dream about January 6 being "an effort to overturn the 2020 election"? Everybody in the world saw that it was. There is nothing Progressive, Left, Socialist, Liberal - or even sane - in denying that January 6 was "a failed insurrection" - to quote Mitch McConnell.
People who say the opposite, whatever is going on in their heads, are supporting Trump and supporting fascism. The obvious fact that Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election, along with his open planning to corrupt and if needed steal the 2026 & 2028 elections makes it not at all a paranoid fantasy.
Horrifying that someone here could write that comment - and get 3 likes.
