If you voted for this asshole, you’re on your own. But if you are one of the millions of Americans about to be targeted by this corrupt, anti-democratic wanna be tyrant…I hope that the rich, cis, white, men and women grow a conscience and a sense of history.
The next few years are going to be incredibly tough. The people who voted for this asshole fucked around and are about to find out. They’ll be kicked out of family gatherings, ostracized publicly, and that’s before they start to feel the effects of his idiotic policies.
This won’t be just a matter of standing up and taking some verbal abuse. They will arrest us this time. Charge us with everything they can come up with, and we need to be ready to stand up for the people who get caught in this.
I’m quite certain they’ll come for anyone with a voice or the courage to challenge them. And guess what, when they come for me, they better bring more than a couple of guys. This is the time for people of conscience to take a stand.
We’re about to see what happens when someone *actually* weaponizes the federal government. They will come for the voices of opposition. They will walk into public schools and demand the names of any undocumented learners. They’ll walk into news stations and threaten sedition.
When their jobs get cut, bonuses wiped out, and the price of everything they buy goes up by 20% or more, and they all of a sudden realize how tariffs work, they’re going to cry for help, and I look forward to saying “no”
