Despite the fact that Donald Trump is facing multiple court cases, including criminal charges resulting from the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, he still dominates his remaining GOP rivals and his support is showing no signs of weakening.
On this episode of the Dixie Dems, Robert Thompson of Georgia, Arthur Hill of North Carolina, and I have a lot to say about the wacky GOP & their dictator, including Trump's stated plans to use the U.S. Justice Department to attack his enemies should he win the 2024 election, presumably against President Joe Biden.
"It looks like a growing number of Americans are willing to place their personal beliefs above the Constitution of the United States and American democracy," says Hill, vice chair of the Brunswick County, NC, Democratic Party. "I think it's appalling and it makes me want to work even harder for Biden's election in November, as well as any other Democrat we can get our hands on."
"Just to put my red MAGA hat on for a second, just to put myself in the shoes of the Trumpster people...they did not think it was normal that we had a Black president for eight years. They think it's not normal that we have a black woman vice president. They think we're persecuting Trump and everything. It's not normal, and I don't know how we come together somewhere in the middle of the ball field. It's scary as hell to try to live in the heads of these Republican supporters."
