One day after declaring victory in the U.S. presidential race, Democrats started making Enemy of the State political dissident lists of Donald Trump supporters for public heretic and disloyalty trials. Haven’t we had enough over-the-top political rhetoric in the last four years?
Well, leftwing voices sure didn’t get the memo. Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin tweeted, “Any R now promoting rejection of an election or calling to not to follow the will of voters or making baseless allegations of fraud should never serve in office, join a corporate board, find a faculty position or be accepted into ‘polite’ society. We have a list.”
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted in triumph, “Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future? I foresee decent probability of many deleted Tweets, writings, photos in the future.” She mocked the response from those she wishes to place on the left’s “enemies” list, “Lol at the ‘party of personal responsibility’ being upset at the idea of being responsible for their behavior over last four years.”
Yes, a new project, mimicking GLAAD’s Trump Accountability Project, vows to make sure we “Remember What They Did.” As Emily Abrams, one of the founders, announced, “We’re launching the Trump Accountability Project to make sure anyone who took a paycheck to help Trump undermine America is held responsible for what they did. Join us and help spread the word.”
