President Biden has defined MAGA Republicans as semi-fascists who “do not respect the Constitution … do not believe in the rule of law … refuse to accept the results of a free election … fan the flames of political violence … (and) threaten the very foundations of our republic.”

So, now I know who are the MAGA Republicans. They are:

• Antifa and BLM, which took to violence, defied the law and attacked police.

• Georgia election denier Stacie Abrams, who has yet to concede her 2016 gubernatorial election.

• Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, who said, “We have to kill and confront that movement,” speaking about “extremist” Republicans.

• Vice President Kamala Harris, who said the Supreme Court took away a “constitutional right” and compared the court’s abortion ruling to slavery.

• Sen. Chuck Schumer, who warned Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch that they would “pay a price” if they voted to roll back abortion rights.

• Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, who voted to recommend commutation of a convicted murderer’s sentence.

• Rep. Charlie Christ, D-Fla., who called Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis “DeSatan.”

• Nevada official Robert Telles, a Democrat, who was arrested for the politically motivated killing of journalist Jeff German.

• James Hodgkinson, the Sen. Bernie Sanders campaign worker who shot Republican legislators playing softball.

• Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., who called for threats and harassment of President Trump’s supporters.

• Former Attorney General Eric Holder, who told Georgia Democrats, “When they go low, we kick them.”

• Democrats who pay for ads supporting far-right Republicans.

To paraphrase Pogo, Biden has defined the enemy, and they is us.
