Still watching January 6th Hearing, here's my general impression:

John Eastman knew the constitution did not give the Vice President any power to over turn any election, ever. He even admitted it in private. But he knew Trump would fire him if he didn't provide a plan to win the 2020 election. So he lied to Trump that Pence had the power to solve all of his problems, and because Trump knew nothing about the constitution, he believed it. And so Mike Pence, the perfect Christian sycophant for Trump, became the last Scapegoat of the administration.

Protect the Office of the Presidency Don't Protect America Itself

Protect the office, because that is superficial and easy. Isn't the pretense of us having values and being good more important than of actually being good?

We need the freedom to do wrong again, of not learning from our history and our past mistakes. No accountability! That would be too uncomfortable! Make America safe for Karens!

Don't you want a true Authoritarian, Fascist America?

Does this make your choice any clearer?

WHAT HAPPENED?

When no one was looking, the alt-wrong spewed a lot of fake news that stuck and we discovered that America wasn't as cool as we thought.
