The group’s president, Kevin D. Roberts, made the comments in an interview on “The War Room,” the Trump adviser Stephen K. Bannon’s show on the network Real America’s Voice.
Mr. Roberts was discussing the Supreme Court’s ruling on Monday that presidents have substantial immunity from prosecution for what they do in office, a ruling that upended the criminal case against former President Donald J. Trump for his attempts to overturn the 2020 election and that removes a potential barrier to the most radical elements of his second-term agenda if he is elected again.
“We ought to be really encouraged by what happened yesterday, and in spite of all of the injustice — which of course friends and audience of this show, of our friend Steve, know — we are going to prevail,” Mr. Roberts said, alluding to Mr. Bannon’s imprisonment.
He went on to say that “the radical left” was “apoplectic” because “our side is winning” and said, “And so I come full circle in this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”
Not a purity test. Just a fact. Are democrats better than Republicans? Yes, that's also a fact. But that does not change the correct definition of a political party. DEMOCRATS ARE NOT THE LEFT! Left of Republicans but very few actual left ideas make it to benefit the common person because democrats smother left ideas in the crib. Vote democrat (if living in deeply red states or swing states) but also protest unjust acts regardless of which party is currently in control. (even more so when it's the party that you voted for.) I live in a deep blue state and vote green to try to pull the political spectrum left. I protest both sides for their crimes. I protest Biden for his direct support of genicide. I protest Trump for his many wrongs as well. We need to fight for the race to the top and not whomever clears the lowest bar possible.
I actually don't think it's appropriate to say Democrats are better than Republicans because the party distinction is artificial. They all subscribe to the same platform: reactionary capitalism, global domination, nuclear escalation and brinkmanship, containment of China, dominance of European economics, fossil fuel subsidies, oligopoly, finance imperialism, international and domestic usury, wage slavery, minoritarian rule, etc. They just have different constituencies and messaging strategies to achieve the same goals.
