First term, second term... Jan6 should've been the tipping point in everybody's perception. Not just the event and Trump's involvement in it, but the aftermath, all of MAGA, the baking, the hysteria, the hate.
I expected his 2nd term to become much worse, I felt the fear in my gut across the ocean when the election result came out.
But yeah, of course I didn't have any concrete vision, so it's still shocking, all the time.
How exactly was it only or mostly dems that did this?
Is this a typo, or a new term for me to learn?
Baking conspiracy theories.
