    Not hard to have “unity” when they’ve worked to purge anyone from the party who disagreed with the cult.

  • No.

    Fuck you, GOP. The only acceptable intolerance is intolerance.

    I shall fight you on the beaches, I shall fight you on the landing grounds, I shall fight you in the fields and in the streets, I shall fight you in the hills; I shall never surrender my country to your bigotry and fascism.*

    All these “journalist” need to stop with these “both sides” headline bullshit. The RNC contained nothing about unity, and they continued their calls for violence. The media needs to wise up at some point and realize that a Trump win means that Project 2025 will allow him to turn all media into state sponsored propaganda machines, else lose their license and be out of business. So unless they all want to be the next RT (which Trump really only needs one), they better stop this whole “balanced” nonsense and start reporting on these monsters for the danger that they are. Continuing to treat them like they have “turned a corner” just continues to normalize their destruction of norms and disdain for the law.

    This title should read more like, “During an unhinged RNC, GOP nominate Trump and call on MAGA to ‘fight, fight, fight’ against democracy”.

    As it does more often than not, “unity” means “I’m gonna keep doing the same crazy and explicitly hostile shit I’ve always been doing, and I want you to unify with the idea of me doing that and not give me any static about it”
