    Genuinely, if Trump is a genuine risk to democracy and risks increasing support to Israel, why must he be defeated in a vote? Like, if he becomes Hitler 2 and erases democracy and ups the genocide, is that okay with you because he won the vote?

      He must be defeated in a vote to send a clear message he is not wanted/has no mandate. He can cry “stolen election” all he wants, he won’t be in charge, and after 2 presidential losses and 2 disastrous midterms the GOP will move on. Eventually he has to win or he has no power.

        Kinda hard to do if his brains get splattered. Either way though, vote or not, the world does not work by Great Man Theory. Trump’s ideas aren’t popular among his voters because he is Trump, the GOP will not move on regardless.
