is easier when the results aren't so severe.

How many people have been killed since (and including) the Jan. 6th insurrection? Venezuela, Iran, Salvadorean prisons, the streets of Minneapolis with ICE literally shooting citizens?

Yes, we can have some ground rules and move forward after MAGA is removed, but "let bygones be bygones" is really not the stage we're at here.

It's not just a football game or something ...
