Call me Charlie. Some years ago - never mind how long precisely - having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me online, I thought I would surf about a little and see the less loony part of the world.

I'd say a lot of folks will need to get fired over this, except that "we never hold anyone accountable" is basically the Democratic Party motto at this point.

Those reporters still believe protests work to Trump's benefit, as if someone else was the incumbent president in 2020.

It's not the article itself, It's taking what Mina said on this site, writing a story about it, and then linking to that on Twitter, where the reaction is predictably hostile.

Adam Schiff was inescapable on cable and on Twitter right up until the time he got to the Senate.

The Tea Party was pretty large scale, as I recall. To say nothing of 1/6/21.
"Don't protest or the people who hate you will end up hating you even more" isn't going to persuade many people.

Not enough personnel to do martial law
The secret of American law enforcement is that most people voluntarily follow most laws most of the time
If that changes for a significant %, things get overstretched very fast

Sort of in agreement here. More important than the stunts is the party's voices repeating the message (something that Republicans seem to do instinctively).
But it's like "weird" last year -- you know you're on to something when they squeal. And it bugs Trump because he knows it's true.
