    “The best way to get rid of the fascists is to let them do it! It will clean out the system!”

    Did I read that right?

    You understand this sounds a lot like “Drain the Swamp”? Has it worked?

    I’m also remided of this quote from 2016 or 17:
    “They voted for the elephant in the china shop. They did not realize that they were the china.”

      Nope.

      If they’re going to do it to someone, it might as well be one of the people who let this happen thru inaction and refuses to fight back.

      It would be much worse if he was going after people actually trying to fight back.

        IDK. This still sounds a lot like Drain The Swamp.

        Maybe you need to clarify what exactly the problem is with Pelosi specifically.

          Maybe you need

          I don’t need to do shit, if I had to explain myself to everyone who couldn’t understand what I mean, that’s all I’d ever do

          If you had asked me politely to clarify, I almost definitely would have. But not like this
