Former Republican congressman and MSNBC host Joe Scarborough is on a mission to get the media focused on the Malignant Loser's threat to democracy. From this morning's gab fest:
"People in the media have a responsibility to really tune out the voices of the haters, of the people that are constantly double-, triple-checking and shilling for him, suggesting somehow they're being biased, bending over backwards, treating him like a normal candidate. He is not a normal candidate. He is running to end American democracy as we know it. He is an authoritarian who a court in Colorado two days ago ruled that he led an insurrection against the United States government. He is charged with leading schemes to help overthrow the United States government, so if they want to frame it that way, that's fine. If you want to be fair, if you want to be fair, you will frame this as Joe Biden being the candidate that supports American democracy and Donald Trump, a candidate who supports a new form of government here that's authoritarian. It's really that simple." (our emphasis)
On a more mundane level, the Malignant Loser is also running 1) to stay out of prison, and 2) to raise money from his rabid, delusional cult to pay his legal bills, etc. The wheels of justice are grinding too slowly to see him incarcerated before the election, and after that event, if he prevails, this lawless, reckless demagogue may not get justice at all.
