The way I see it, it's not too late to organize another Jan. 6th. If I had the means and ability to make it over and help with a Democrat version, I would no questions asked. Anything for the sake of preventing that fascist from re-entering the oval office. I'm at the point where I'm all for Dems going violently radical against the fascists.
If one does get organized, I'd be willing to chip in a small amount of money out of my financial aid in order to aid the right side of history.
Biden had the power/justification to put Trump in military jail since 2021. He doesn't seem interested.
That's why I was referring to the average people doing it, but instead of right wing fascists storming the capital to overthrow democracy, it's Dems storming it to save democracy.
There is no leader volunteering for President should an insurrection be successful.
In the spirit of all insurrection, we could install a leader. There's a little less than 2 months to organize. May not be a lot of time, but there certainly is time. And if nothing else, trying to force someone to be president, so long as they ain't one of the fascists, isn't great but it isn't the absolute worst option. What would make it even better is if we got support from people like Sanders for something like this, even though I'm fairly certain he wouldn't agree to it.
