Yet, Wilentz writes, “many of even the most influential news sources hold to the fiction Trump and his party are waging a presidential campaign instead of a continuing coup, a staggering failure to recognize Trump’s stated agenda.”
Stopping that coup means first winning the election — and then ensuring that local officials certify it.
That means:
- Check your voter registration
- Volunteer
- Donate
- Organize locally so that you can turn out to pressure local officials to actually treat your ballot as valid
I don’t doubt that there are more wannabe traitors in local office; Trump didn’t put them there directly though.

Yep. The fundamental problem is that the Republican party has transitioned into a pro-dictatorship party because they’re afraid that nonwhites will have the same freedoms as they do. And that doesn’t go away once Trump is gone.
