    Well, I agree it is broad, yeah.

    But, like… we’ll see if there’s gonna be any republicans trying to distance themselves from Trump. There were lots who endorsed Harris and who refused to endorse Trump, but not endorsing Trump just isn’t enough with this level of threat to democracy, imo.

      I’m personally a fan of the MLK Jr quote, along the same lines:

      In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends.
