The thing is even more ridiculous because the Republicans warned him not to have the town hall and have told their members to only have online town halls or "moderated" chats. So they can keep any dissenting voices out and project an image of everyone loving what they are doing.
Now they are just relegated to calling things like this "democratic operatives" trying to disrupt civil Republican discourse. This isn't gonna work as well as they think because people know who is hurting them since the Republicans own all the branches right now.
They owned all the branches during trump's first term too. Republican voters won't learn, they're too stupid to understand
They also had all branches during W's term when he crashed the economy and started two never ending wars.
The Republican voter is dumber than a bag of rocks. Hell, even a bag of rocks would learn faster than a Republican voter.
It's as if the more a population is restricted, the harder it will resist. It's taking a while for the american people to be roused, but I have hope that it gathers speed and power, not unlike a boulder hurdling down a hill towards a village.
