Imagine thinking you'll even be able to legally protest if Trump is president.

Is this what we can expect for every criticism of the Biden administration for the next year? All you are really telling swing voters is that their opinion is irrelevant. What do you think that will do for turnout? Why do you think the administration itself isn't making use of this brilliant electoral strategy? When Trump wins, you can thank the guy in the mirror.

Did I say their opinion is irrelevant? I said, like last time, Trump will attack them and try to outlaw protests while working for the highest bidder. It's not an attempt at swaying, it's stating fact. You don't get change by replacing the status quo guy with a straight up fascist.

If ever criticism is met with "But Trump...", then you are making their opinion irrelevant. There will always be a worse Republican.
