Many Democrats, independants and a few republicans have been publicly asking for Republicans to stand up, do their job, follow the law and do the right thing.
Many Republicans have been quiet.
Republicans maybe afraid for their lives and the lives of their families.
May be Republicans know something that scares them into silence and it is not an imaginary conspiracy theory.
History is littered with the mess of dictators taking control.
History Deja Vu EXAMPLE :
The Night of the Long Knives was a purge that took place in Nazi Germany from June 30 to July 2, 1934. Chancellor Adolf Hitler, urged on by Hermann Göring and Heinrich Himmler, ordered a series of political executions.
Hitler's Schutzstaffel (SS) paramilitary force carried out most of the 700 to 1,000 killings.
Leading members of the leftist-leaning faction of the Nazi Party, including its figurehead, Gregor Strasser, were also killed, as were establishment conservatives and anti-Nazis.
Hitler used the purge to attack or eliminate German critics of his new regime, especially those loyal to Vice-Chancellor Franz von Papen, as well as to settle scores with old enemies.
The Night of the Long Knives was a turning point for it established Hitler as the supreme administrator of justice for the German people.
Nazi propaganda presented the murders as a preventive measure against an alleged imminent coup (rigged election).
USA in 2020 just like Germany in 1934 has a charismatic politician complaining about enemies, the media, minorities and other politicians.
The USA and Germany both had/have over 75,000 armed and active paramilitary group members.
Death threats and violence occurred against protests and opposition in Germany from 1928 to 1934 and in the USA from 2016 to now in 2020.
People say it cannot happen in USA as USA has pieces of paper that say it can not. Many Germans prior to the Nazi purge said the same thing.
People need to ask Republicans the correct questions.
