It’s this that’s she’s emphasizing:

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/09/us/politics/donald-trump-ethics-transition.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

He needs to put forth an ethics plan to start the transition process. Part of that ethics plan requires him to say he will transfer power peacefully.

It was required to be created before the election. So it’s pretty obvious they don’t care.

I’m fact I’ll go as far as to say its intentional. They will scream that Biden is resisting the transition, trying to stage a coup, etc etc. The antics won’t stop just because he got elected.

I assume everything Trump does at this point forward will be to benefit Russia and to start a civil war within the US.

I think the last few years have pretty much proven he doesn’t ‘need’ to do anything.

Sure, because he is a foreign asset meant to transfer wealth to Russia from the US and destroy the US from within. It only benefits him to harm our country.

But yes a competent leader would want things like info from those agencies and intelligence briefings etc so they are prepared on Jan 20.

Libs before the election: Trump is a fascist! He must be stopped! He’ll destroy our democracy!

Libs after the election: Congrats to Trump! We’ll be meeting soon to discuss the peaceful exchange of powers and our broadly overlapping interests.

The Babylon Bee is unfunny right wing trash, but the Democrats walked right into this one. You can’t tell us Trump is a threat to democracy and then peacefully transfer power to him.

Refusing to peacefully transfer power would be the end of democracy.

The US is a capitalist dictatorship, not a democracy.

If you believe trump intends to end democracy, then democracy is already over regardless of if you peacefully transfer power or not.

The truth is liberals have always been the path to fascism. After the death of the US no liberal nor fascist should ever be allowed near power again.

Good old right wing “humor” (punching down on everyone else because they consider everyone else beneath them). We’re all going to be seeing a lot of this type of “humor” (lynchings, book burning, singing about how wonderful being dictated to is) in the next 10 years or so.
