Which is to say, the fascists have been winning, a lot, for years. Even when someone like Trump loses an election, they win through the courts.
Biden's election was supposed to buy us time to deal with some of this, which didn't happen for various reasons including Biden was never the guy to seriously challenge Republicans.
I hoped for something similar from Harris / Walz until it became clear they were intent on hugging Republicans to death, which has never worked.
Now I'm just scared.
