1. When did he first call out the first 10,000 tRump lies?

-shrug- I don't know. I don't remember seeing it ever before.

16. +1. Yes he has been speaking out. the first 4 minutes of this was very powerful.

From from a fav, had huge issue while he was gov. Not to mention other parts of who he is. But that first 4 min of the video should be taken to heart.

[marble falls]

17. Always thought once he grew up (except for cheating on his wife) he seemed to have real ...

... values. Too conservative at least 60% of the time, but he certainly seems to believe everyone has rights and that the system works for everyone.

4. Lord.

3. Arnold didn't just cook this up overnight, he's lived it, what a powerful message

He has become more patriotic over these years, and I'm sure he wrote that himself.

Everyone should watch this. Three times a week on all networks. This MIGHT reach some MAGAts.

[NurseJackie]

5. Thank you Gov. Schwarzenegger.

[marble falls]

6. Absolutely! Thank you Governor Schwarzenegger.

8. Very powerful and heartfelt message.

Thank you Mr. Schwarzenegger.

9. No, this attack on democracy did not "make us stronger"

What would have made us stronger is if the attack lasted 5 minutes and was quickly shut down. What will make us stronger is holding all accountable, starting with trump and hawley and cruz and the over 100 house representatives who spread lies to their constituents and made money off this swindle.

Take your stupid movie prop and your pretend uniform and go watch another movie.

11. I believe it did make us stronger because we cleared the insurrectionists from the building and

completed the business of finalizing Biden's election. Those involved are being tracked down and arrested, and Republicans who supported Trump will hav a much harder time explaining themselves in the days and years ahead.

[yellowdogintexas]

22. One way it made us stronger is that we have an acute awareness of how

this kind of power takes over. We know more about what to watch for and ways to deal with it before it turns into another Jan 6 2021

My mother used to say "Never think it can't happen here. It can if we stop paying attention"

[Nitram]

24. Exactly!

10. Some might find this corny but I was moved.

12. One word I never expected to type about Schwarzenegger...

RESPECT.

This is so powerful and moving, it made both my husband and me reach for a tissue.

But I don't share his optimism.

[captain queeg]

13. It was very good. First time I've seen him alude to personal contact with the nazis

[DinahMoeHum]

15. Not the first time. He made similar remarks after Charlottesville. . .

. . .back in 2017:

14. So...

No Celebrity Apprentice II for you?

18. K&R

Powerful!

19. Family members are worried about what's to come. To them, I say this.

If by looking at the likes/dislikes of Arnold's speech are any indication, the Cult45s are a sliver minority. They will not succeed, because they are completely outnumbered.

Let them have their hundred man marches to come. But don't give them relevance, don't repeat what they have to say or bring recognition to their peaceful actions to come, no matter how outrageous. Let it all go into the vacuum of space.

Time wounds all heals.
