If Elmo throwing Nazi salutes wasn’t a big enough tell, Drumpf calling them the January 6 hostages should terrify anyone who hasn’t already left the country.

if you think language is the battleground I hope you have your exit visa ready
It was a joke based on how inconsistent they are in language. They regularly say completely contradictory things in the same breath and it’s always absurd. It’s not like his cult would actually turn on him over that.

He needs his brownshirts for what’s coming next
I’m actually surprised he did but I guess Brownshirts gotta come from somewhere.
I genuinely thought he’d leave them twisting in the wind.
I’m also surprised he actually gave enough of a shit to pardon them. I assumed he’d just forget about them.
He doesn’t. He did it in order to set the precedent that crime and violence committed on his behalf will be pardoned.
