Re: Trump Busted for Trying to Steal Election
Was he really 'busted' though?
I saw the headlines but haven't read the reports. Is this something that actually hurts him, or just takes his popularity with Ajax/subs types to the next level? with negative heroes, new spins on cheating get big applause. So did Trump actually just score major points for executing a big publicity stunt or is he somehow really hurt by this?
Unfortunately, to me it seems like democracy is slowly losing a war of attrition. The castle has withstood catapults and flaming arrows, but there is an inexhaustible supply of ammo. Court strike-downs and a few lawsuits are encouraging, but there is really no counterattack. It seems to me some of these clear cases of defamation, for instance, need to get crowdfunded and pursued relentlessly, and not to be satisfied with right-wing news backing off for a few days on a few stories.

We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.
