The Democrats believe they have won. With the election tied up in court and many people forgetting what happened in the presidential election back in 2000, it is easy to believe Joe Biden is the upcoming President, but that is not the case. The Democrats are on a warpath that could easily take us down a dark path if not controlled. Just take a look at what some of the newly elected Democrats want to do to families that voted for Trump.

In a series of tweets, David Atkins, the newly appointed Member of the California Democratic National Committee, said that he doesn’t know how to reprogram all the people that voted for Trump, but he was open to suggestions. He would even go on to suggest thinking as they did in post-WWII when they had hundreds of deprogramming camps around the country. But again, this is supposed to be forward, progressive thinking.

The whole ordeal first kicked off when Atkins tweeted, “How do you deprogram 75 million people who would literally die to stick it to the domestic enemies the teevee and youtube conspiracy vids told them to hate?” While he didn’t come out and say that he wanted to reprogram over 70 million Trump supporters, it should be noted that Trump received over 73 million votes.

This is not your standard partisan policy disagreement. This is a conspiracy theory fueled belligerent death cult against reality & basic decency.

The only actual policy debates of note are happening within the dem coalition between left and center left.

And if that was clear enough for you, Atkin literally says it himself when he added, “No seriously…how *do* you deprogram 75 million people? Where do you start? Fox? Facebook? We have to start thinking in terms of post-WWII Germany or Japan. Or the failures of Reconstruction in the South.”

It isn’t enough for the Democrats to believe they have won the 2020 election, now they want to round up all the people who don’t agree with them and send them to reprogram camps.

This is not okay and should not even be joked about. It is interesting that this isn’t the first time a Democrat has made these suggestions. AOC tweeted a few weeks ago that she wanted to compile a list of every person who voted for Trump and hold them accountable. Is this what she was hinting at?
