Once the government claims the right to strip anyone of due process, rights cease to be rights and become privileges, granted or revoked at the whim of those in power. That is not a constitutional democracy. That is the scaffolding of fascism.

And instead you got a felon rapist traitor who is creating a fascist regime. We're losing rights. Regulations are being rolled back. The economy is crashing. Life is more expensive.

Real smart.

I voted for Harris.

See what good it did to vote blue no matter who?

Keep knocking down those strawmen while the country slides into fascism.
