    I didn’t think J6 would happen, but it did. If more congressional republicans would’ve went along with the fake electors, then yes maybe. Some republicans may want him gone, but he still maintains a tight grip on their party. Kevin Mccarthy went to swear fealty to their dear leader only days after. The current one defers all powers to him.

      The problem with American democracy is that half of your allies are just in line for your job. Especially in the Senate.

      They weren’t going along for the ride because they weren’t interested in the destination.
