When personal responsibility is also national responsibility, we can’t mess around with fools.

I’m dead serious. If not for Trump’s bizarre denial of Reality, his completely unhinged, yet premeditated, assertion that not only did he win the 2020 Election, but by a landslide to boot, Ashli Babbitt would be at home enjoying her ultra-conservative life with her family. She was the essence of what it means to be misguided. Donald Trump misguided her to Washington DC on January 6th. He misguided her to the Capitol and he gave her the false, righteous and patriotic motivation to “rescue America” from a most unjust theft of our highest office that her dear leader, the President of the United States, assured her was the case. In a country with 340M people, if you only misguide 1% of them, that’s 3.4 million people headed down the wrong path. So it’s a serious issue.

Normal patriotic people will trust what the President says because presidents are expected to have more information and be of high character and looking out for all Americans and of course, they get to say it from the White House which has a “superman” reputation of American, red, white and blue power going back to George Washington. They also have an Oath and it’s their job and we generally like and trust our Presidents with national secrets, etc. So when someone violates this trust and willfully lies…
