Radio host and TV personality Charlamagne Tha God, appearing on The Daily Show the other night, offered a piece of advice to cowering, eager-to-appease Democratic officials:
"...Donald Trump won this election by a little over two million votes and Democrats are acting like he's unstoppable. Do you remember how Republicans acted when Biden won by seven million votes? [snip] They tried to impeach Biden from day one for the crime of getting elected. I like that energy though. They weren't worried about alienating Democrats. They said f**k Democrats. They riled up their base and it worked. Today Democrats are patting themselves on the back for allowing a peaceful transfer of power. And I have no problem with conceding the election. But don't concede the Constitution.
Democrats, I am begging you. For once, treat Republicans the way they treat you. And treat Trump as if you believed that everything you've said about him is true."
Sadly, we're hopeful but not optimistic about Dems heeding his words. Smiling and having tea and cookies with the Malignant Fascist who is already trying to override the Constitution, selling the country to oligarchs, and causing turmoil and pain in the immigrant community is bad form if you expect to wrest the Government from him.
