Looks like the Charlie Kirk shooting wasn't enough for A Reichstag Fire moment.
But it won't be long now.
or maybe they don't get to win.
Well given they won the Senate, Congress, Presidency, Supreme Court, the media conglomerates, and the entire political momentum of the US, in reality they're going from one win to another.
