Okay, how will you react when Repubs end democracy?

Somewhat related to madmonk28’s article, is my disgust at the people surrounding Trump that are not directly beholden to him. For example McGahn is finally due to testify, although with serious caveats and exceptions. There are people, who yes, are at some legal and ethical risk if they come forward, because the (R) are proving to be exceptionally vengeful to appease their dictator wannabe - but they are also the ones most equipped to realize the consequences of letting Trump and his ilk get away with it.

Sure, there were reasons to stall while Trump was protected from any possible repercussions by a complicit Senate, but people should be coming out of the woodwork - and yet they don’t. Yes, they could loose professional credentials, or public trust. But those that have failed Trump aren’t going to be approached for a position of power in the future, and they’ll still have to live here in the future that they’re enabling.

But people don’t have to be actively evil for evil things to happen, they just have to be sufficiently passive in the face of motivated evil. And that’s where I honestly think we are.
