Hanson broadened the lens.
He argued that when you line up the pattern of actions, from media lies to lawfare to ballot bans, one thing becomes clear: the Democrats aren’t protecting democracy.
They’ve been gutting it.“If you look at the Democrats, they have staged three great scandals to try to destroy the Trump administration and by extension, democracy.”
Then he listed more. Each transgression against democracy, stabbing like a dagger.“
They impeached Donald Trump twice. No one’s ever done that.”
“They tried him as a private citizen. Nobody’s ever done that.”
“They raided his home in Mar-a-Lago. That is a terrible precedent for an ex-president. No one has ever done that.”
“They tried to get him off the ballot in 25 states. No one had ever done that.”
“There were two assassination attempts during the campaign that had never happened before.”
“They tried to debunk him and make it impossible for Donald Trump to write a check, whether from Morgan Stanley or Bank of America or any bank.”
So when Carville says Democrats are now going to get tough?
They already did. Hanson says it’s TOTAL gaslighting.“When James Carville says, we’re going to get tough, we’re going to get really tough, and we’re going to let in Puerto Rico and Washington, DC to get four senators, or we might have to pack the court to 13 justices, I’m thinking, well, you always were going to do that.”
He went even further.“
If you had not lost the House and Senate during the Biden administration, had you had a normal president that was in control of his mental and physical abilities, then you would have not only packed the court and not only, as you promised, let in two states, but in addition, you would have gotten rid of the Electoral College by the hook and crook of the National Voter Compact.”
“And more importantly, you would have abolished the Senate.”
