One in 249 as bad as one in a million

One hundred twenty-six GOP congressmen signed on to Trump’s effort to overturn the election in the Supreme Court, an act of treason against American democracy. GOP Senator Ted Cruz agreed to argue Trump’s soft coup before the Supremes if they granted a hearing. Not willing to participate in treason, the Supremes, including 3 Trump appointees, passed.

As cops guarded the shut down the Michigan Capitol turning away the treasonous Michigan GOP phantom Trump slate of electors, true American patriots voted the will of the People in Michigan and 24 other states to certify Biden’s election by 74 electoral votes to go along with his 7,059,741 popular vote margin.

Coup supporting Republicans have largely thrown in the towel, saying in effect, ‘Sigh, looks like Biden won and will be inaugurated January 20’. But not all have given up and some may support Trump inspired shenanigans Inauguration Day. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell privately pleaded with his Senate colleagues not to participate with continued electoral treason. Why? ‘Bad for the Republican brand’ was his reasoning.

From this madness we got sole national GOP patriot Mitt Romney, providing an unequivocal denunciation of GOP electoral treason as 'reckless and dangerous’. Dangerous indeed including mob action, stabbings, death threats against fellow Republican election officials certifying Biden’s victory, and calls for disruption of Congress’ Electoral College Vote certification January 6. Even opposition on Inauguration Day is feared. The goal? Delegitimize the Biden Administration before it begins.

Trump has led the national GOP down a rabbithole of treason that will be difficult to reverse. One in 249 GOP Congresspersons pushing back might as well be one in a million. Not enough.
