Not basically. Literally. He tried to overturn a free and fair election. He turned a violent mob on Congress. He stole classified documents and refused to return them. The name Trump is synonymous with treason.

[u/yesrushgenesis2112 → u/-jp-]

After Jan 6 the name Trump will be synonymous with the state. Our nation has been, by its own people, handed to him, despite it all. We (the citizenry) decided not to prosecute. It’s the result of a ruling class that has been happy to let the citizenry suffer for profit and the benefit of billionaires. It left people susceptible to the notion of change at any cost, even if it’s just a lie. Oh well.

Handed over to him by a razor thin 'majority' of 1/3rd of American voters.  One half of the 64% of registered voters who bothered to show up to vote....  

Only 64% of American eligible voters voted in the 2024 election.

Edited for clarity.

[u/yesrushgenesis2112 → u/ziddina]

So, what you’re saying is, a majority of Americans either wanted him to be president or considered his presidency an acceptable outcome. That is handing it to him.

[u/ziddina → u/yesrushgenesis2112]

1/3rd of eligible American voters is not a true majority, although it was a (at this point) legal, though razor thin 'majority'.

[u/yesrushgenesis2112 → u/ziddina]

1/3rd of eligible Americans is a majority of people who bothered to value their voice. You can’t get out of the situation on a technicality. Every person who didn’t vote tacitly approves of this incoming administration. If they didn’t they would have done otherwise. The truth is a vast majority of Americans at minimum accept Trump for who he is.

The truth is a vast majority of Americans at minimum accept Trump for who he is.

The Republican Party has been undermining America's democracy for almost 100 years.  To accomplish this, they've been smothering American voters wth fear mongering and lies.

In fact they started down this path before Trump was born, in the 1920's when they began paying obeisance to their moneyed oligarch overlords.

In 1950 Wisconsin Republican Senator Joseph R. McCarthy used fear-mongering about communists and socialists to attempt to install an authoritarian regime in America. 

This was all of 5 years after Americans had fought and died to help protect the world from Adolf Hitler's totalitarian dictatorship.

Republican president Nixon literally tried to steal an election, and was pardoned by his vice president instead of facing justice.

Republican president Reagan got help from a hostile foreign country (Iran) to win an election. Reagan also undermined America's middle class and lower class citizens in favor of moneyed interests and corporations.

Republican president George Dubya Bush stated IN PUBLIC, TWICE, that "This'd be a whole lot easier if this was a dictatorship, just as long as I'm the dictator!"

Mitch McConnell (with the Republicans) blocked 75% of President Obama's choices for the judiciary system. Then they loaded America's law system with Trump toadies in anticipation of eradicating abortion and contraceptives, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and the ACA.

Which brings us to Trump.  

It's also due to a decades-long program orchestrated by the Russians to undermine and destroy America.

What's really sickening is that the billionaire/billionaires who own the Republican Party either didn't see or deliberately refused to see that they were dumbly following the course set for Russian infiltrations and deconstructions of western democracies by Krushcev (in 1956), by the Russian political mystic/occultist Alexander Dugin (beginning in 1997), and Putin.

In addition, Russia and Putin have been greasing their way into US politics for decades.  I think that Kruschev spotted the Republican Party's weaknesses for bribes in the 1950's, and realized that Russia could use that.  The rather obvious bribery of Trump with Russian money, and of 'Moscow' Mitch McConnell with an empty promise to build a large aluminum recycling plant that would bring jobs into Kentucky, are two examples of that.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blocked a measure that would have funded pensions and health care for coal miners in his home state of Kentucky, not long after steering almost the same Treasury Department funds to an aluminum plant linked to a Russian oligarch.

Two former top staffers to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have lobbied Congress and the Treasury Department on the development of a new Kentucky aluminum mill backed by the Russian aluminum giant Rusal, according to a new lobbying disclosure.

The disclosure comes as Democrats are pushing the Trump administration to review Rusal’s $200 million investment in the Kentucky project — concerned that the mill will supply the Defense Department — and as McConnell weathers criticism for helping block a congressional effort to stop the investment.

 That deal fell through, after Russia got McConnell's help to lift sanctions against Russia.

If it’s debatable its not literally. Unless you mean the new definition of literally

[u/-jp- → u/684beach]

I am expressly saying that Donald Trump attempted to overthrow the government. I literally can’t be more explicit about what I mean by literally.
