The North Carolina GOP have sort of flown under the radar but are busy passing unconstitutional laws and usurping power following Donald Trumps playbook. These fascists are not hiding what they’re doing, and if they’re given complete control they will be scrolling through the rise of nazism Wikipedia page to see what they should do next.
Nah, its not Trumps playbook. Back when I was in college they tried to pass a constitutional amendment that would annul same-sex marriages for simply entering the state. NC GOP has been wild for a long, long time
Trump's playbook is the same as any Conservative playbook, from Nixon to Reagan to Bush to Gingrich to Cheyney to Boener to Trump to Gaetz. It's the same plays, but Trump had less tact and no filter, and he proved you don't need tact or a filter because conservatives will vote for anyone they think will help them.
Think will hurt other people so they can watch.
This. I grew up in single-party Republican Texas. It's only now that people outside the South are really paying attention to what they have been doing to us.
