Jan. 6 Hearings MegaThread

Denialist cult members only matter as the existential threat that they are; the nonsense they claim to believe is irrelevant.

Dumbass. It’s 100% guaranteed that he would’ve done everything in his power to destroy any Republican who participated in that committee in good faith just as he has with Cheney and Kinzinger, and the rest of his party knew it.

Yeah as others have said one big advantage of including so many Republicans in these hearings is that it helps erode the perception that Republicans have to support Trump in general and The Big Lie in particular.

If we can’t convince Republicans to leave their party then perhaps we can at least help them see a less fascist path forward.

At this point, I think that’s a given. No matter what we thought we already know about what went on, the hearings are showing that things were immensely worse than we imagined.

It’s like getting to the end of a long rollercoaster ride, grateful that you survived and can now get off the ride, only to have the ride operator say “Hey, have fun!” as you get sent on another run.
