 "The #GOP is now a #radicalized, #weaponized #authoritarian #cult that is marching towards minority, anti-democratic rule. I realize that's a lot of words to basically say a modern #fascist movement. This description might be dismissed by #centrist stenographer of power as hyperbole, but I'd retort that those people are willfully ignoring all the signs that are blinking red and storming the US capitol wearing #MAGA hats. MAGA is a monster fed and created by a #conservative movement that forfeited its better judgment for the sake of short-term power in the form of #Trump. However, Frankenstein's monster has swallowed its creator. The man who is the leader of the GOP is now a 4 times indicted, twice impeached vulgarian with 91 criminal counts against him who incited his mob against a free and fair election. Despite his litany of carnage, or, more accurately, because of it, his base is further drawn to him as their warrior avatar who will deliver them vengeance, retribution and victory."
