isn't the answer?

Who would have thought that giving the bully your lunch money every day for decades would lead to a less than perfect outcome.

And not all cheating is "illegal," per se, in that cheating through a veneer of legal or legislative maneuvers is cheating.

Out loud.

1968 - Nixon-Agnew dealt with North Vietnam to sabotage Paris peace talks

1980 - Reagan-Bush dealt with Ayatollah hostage takers

1988 - Bush pardons Weinberger and other Iran-Contra traitors to avoid trial and exposing his own role

2000 - Bush-Cheney count on GOP-leaning Supreme Court to “win” Florida and, thus, US election

2016 - Trump calls on Russia for help to defeat Hillary Clinton

The record is clear: In Presidential election after Presidential election, Republicans get away with treason.

And after they “win,” We the People are told to, “Move on.” And the GOP gets away with it, again.

One last PSA: Remember Project 2025 is set to dismantle democracy and kick-off a building boom, among other things.
