    No similarity. But if Trump were to get into office again you’d see the McCarthy hearings all over again.

    I see. So storming the Capitol to stop our votes from being counted is as America as an apple to you?

    At least you are honest about being a Fascist.

    The Jan 6th committee today is doing no less a gross and shameful disservice to America. But the Democrats don't give a shit if it means they can destroy their political opponents...
    Can you name one person that has lost their job because they were called in front of the Jan 6th committee? Just one?

    Just remember the left hates the people they profess to care about so how much more do you think they hate those that disagree with them. They don't.

    What votes? There was no electoral college. Seven States never chose their electors. Congress does NOT have authority to choose the electors for any State.

    It is not fascist, but it is tyranny.
    Fascism is a form of economics. It is a form of socialism. It is government manipulation of markets. It is what the Democrats want.
    Communism, another form of socialism, is government ownership of markets. Also what the Democrats want.

    All forms of socialism are based on theft of wealth.
