One of the worst outcomes of this political moment is that it’s led a lot of us to mistake decency for bravery.

The incredible show of force that we saw in DC this summer... Where is it? That was nowhere near what we are seeing happen today as lawmakers in both chambers are in lockdown and unable to continue their duties while violent protestors storm the Capitol.

All of this can be true:
1) Trump wants to steal the election
2) Most Republican politicians seem happy to serve as either willing accomplices or hapless bystanders
3) They will not succeed
4) (This time)

I once asked a political scientist whether there was a litmus test for democracy, and they said yes: the power of elections to remove incumbents. If that’s gone, it’s not a democracy. It’s just not.

Every single person that works at the networks and the AP knows that Joe Biden has won the election. Their reticence is creating a vacuum that Trump is filling with dangerous misinformation.

I think we may have to account for the distinct possibility that the people who sounded the most apocalyptic about Trump were not being hysterical - they were right.

He used tear gas to clear peaceful protesters so he could get his picture took.
Imagine what he’ll do to get reelected.

Trump’s Presidency isn’t just a failure, it is a disaster unequaled in the 244 year history of the United States. America is in chaos, 100,000 of us are dead and the economy shattered because of Trump’s incompetence. He is unfit and making this terrible moment worse.
Walked by @AstoriaWBnC on Broadway - it was packed, with a crowd by the bar. PLEASE implement safer options for patrons and community - no bar service, tables spread out etc. This is a public health crisis. @NYCSpeakerCoJo @MarkLevineNYC
