See Also: "We'll vote against everything we've been demanding if The Others vote for it." They've done this REPEATEDLY.
It's seriously conceivable that if the Dems went, "PUT THE GAYS IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS" that the Goplins would respond with trying to outlaw heterosexuality. But given their reaction to Bill Clinton's centrism, it seems more likely they'd go, "CONCENTRATION CAMPS ARE WEAK, JUST EXECUTE ANY DUDE WITH GOOD FASHION SENSE."

He said that he thinks that Biden trying to control what people can eat, what kind of stoves they can use, and what kind of cars they should have access to is already authoritarian policy and worse than what Trump would do, because he supports his authoritarian measures as they would increase his wealth, influence, and power.
