Reply to comment by VTGREENS in ‘So blatantly illegal’: Liam Madden admits to funneling money through family to inflate campaign finance numbers by DaddyBobMN

It’s a bummer that in order to avoid being downvoted to oblivion you need to qualify your post with “not defending republicans”. Like people see a D or R and make a call before bothering with facts or context.

Funny how that happens, when the Republican party goes full fascist and attempts a coup.

Tends to make sensible folks preface their comments a bit, when there's a danger of being misinterpreted as supporting white supremacists and fascists.

The very wealthy will never permit a fascist coup unless it benefits them financially, and it's hard to see how it would - the status quo is massively profitable, and implementing an authoritarian state would cost money both now and in the long run.
