Sooner or later these headlines need to read “Tens Of Millions Of Free-Willed [Overwhelmingly White] Grown-Ass Adults See Fit To Vote For Candidate Who (Threatens To Use Military On Citizens, Refuses to Act on Climate, Got Roe Overturned, Incited a Riot at the Capitol, etc., etc., etc.)”

And our discourse needs to invert as well. Pointing our finger almost exclusively at the shiny object at the top and hardly at all at the free-willed adults enabling all of this with their votes has really obscured the root cause of this mess. Those who vote Republican are out of control and in the aggregate are a threat to the rest of us. No exaggeration. Trump’s just their current vehicle.
