A few facts:
• Trump lost the 2020 election.
• Though there was no evidence of significant voter fraud, the former president continues to claim the election was rigged.
• He urged his supporters to storm the Capitol on January 6th to disrupt the confirmation of the election results.
• He watched the insurrection on television for more than three hours before heeding the advice of his people and calling off the mayhem.
• More than 800 of the insurrectionists have been tried and sentenced.
• Trump says he’ll pardon these people if he’s re-elected in 2024.
• Here, he’s saying that violence post the 2024 election is an option “depending on the fairness of the election.”
• Trump got 71 million votes in 2020. If only 0.1% of them are armed and prepared to take to the streets in the event that Trump loses, that’s 71,000 morons with assault rifles, ready to do whatever Trump asks of them.
Given this, is there anyone who thinks there’s the slightest chance that this country will avoid widespread violence if Trump loses the election?
Answer:
No. About 70% of the country objects to Trump’s sociopathic criminality.
He’s supported by about 28% of hateful morons, and 2% of rich greedy, selfish pigs.
As they say, “Check your bank account if you want to know which of these groups you fall into.”
If you want to remain ignorant of science, that’s your choice. Homeschool your kids and teach them that rejecting Christ will send them to an eternity of torment in hell.
You’ll need to start while their still young, while they’re still incapable of asking you why all the little boys and girls who are born in non-Christian countries are doomed to be tortured forever.
Maybe if you can isolate them such that they’ll never question why the bible says the Earth is 6000 years old, when dinosaur bones are hundreds of millions of years old.
If you want to go down this road, which I call child abuse, you have that right.
But realize this: as time passes and science continues to help us cure disease, explore space, extend our lives, and, we hope, help us to avert environmental collapse, your position will reveal itself for what it is: cruel stupidity.
Dr. Brian Cox has risen to the status of what I would call an “astrophysics badass” in a matter of just a few short years. Anywhere you go on social media, there’s Cox making you think the most profound thoughts imaginable.
I won’t give anything away, but I caution you to fasten your seatbelt.
