First, riots are illegal. I think you mean protest.
Protest what? He was just elected president. A bit more than the majority of the electorate made this choice so we all have to deal with it. It’s called democracy.
He ran a relatively transparent campaign. So far, all he’s done is sign executive orders we all knew he was going to do. A majority of Americans voted for these actions.
Why are the journalist bending over to Musk?
Why aren’t they calling his nazi salute a nazi solute? Fear.
I read an article saying Jon Stewart was the only one the mentioned Musk’s salute. I watched the segment and, while he did mention it, he did not call it a nazi salute. He tried to, in Jon’s funny way, make an excuse for what he was doing.
I suspect there are legal reasons for not calling this a nazi salute. Likely defamation.
There’s also people / organizations (like the ADL) who, for whatever reason, need to be kept in the good grace’s of these powerful people or who need to maintain their seat at one table or another.
Every single part of this comment just screams “It just wouldn’t be proper!”
And I’m sorry, but I can’t seem to care about what’s “proper” when half my friends now have reasonable fear for their lives, not just “comfort of living” just because they are lgbtq+ living in deep red country.
Didn’t stop Republicans on Jan 6. The truth seems to be that one side is willing to do anything to gain power, and the other is unwilling to do anything to keep it.
I don’t think there’s any contradiction there, though. The Dems aren’t rioting because they accept legitimate outcomes, while the Republicans are only accepting favorable outcomes. No one is rioting right now because the Dems accept Trump’s win as legitimate and the Republicans accept it as favorable.
You’ve asked two different questions.

Most telling move IMO is how they sidelined Tim Walz for being ‘too radical’.
All he was doing was talking facts and smack. Democrats can’t have that! It’s not decent!

Only if you lose. Get your man in power by any means necessary and he will pardon you.
Trump losing in 2020 was the only reason needed for a riot.
