This is pathetic. “I no longer feel an obligation to think of Peace” because he didn’t get a Nobel Prize he didn’t earn nor deserve. Words like “unhinged” don’t begin to describe the state of this presidency and this president.
MAGA 2021: “You can’t tell me to wear a mask.” “You can’t force a vaccine.” “You can’t make me stay home.”
MAGA 2026: “Just follow orders.” “Have your papers ready.” “Comply and nothing bad happens.”
My money is on the loudest “states’ rights” people not having any issues with this.
It’s not going to just stop. That’s not how fascism works. What he says, he does. What he accuses other people of doing, he’s done.
"wherever he goes, he wants to leave"-- that's because when he gets there, he has brought his own self along; & whatever club he's invited to join has been devalued by the invitation.
This is absolutely insane. I am embarrassed and ashamed that 1- this is happening & 2- official comms from our government is posting middle school meme shit about it.
If I were President, and I had planes falling out of the sky, the stock market plummeting, a measles outbreak, with prices of everything soaring while millions of people are protesting across the country, you wouldn't catch ME golfing every fucking weekend and some weekdays.
And on the taxpayer's dime too?
If only there were a government efficiency department focused on finding waste and fraud. 🙄
Trump hanging his supporters in DC out to dry in favor of an exclusive inauguration where only his inner circle and top donors can attend is the perfect metaphor for this administration and today’s GOP.
To everyone who is afraid of what happens next, I share your fears. But what we do next is important.
We have to learn from what happened. And then, make a plan. As we confront a second Trump presidency, here’s a path forward: 🧵
We must not delude ourselves in this moment. Multiracial democracy in the United States is less than 60 years old. It has always been contested, often violently so. It has always been fragile. Since this nation's inception large swaths of white Americans -- including white women -- have claimed a belief in democracy while actually enforcing a white ethnocracy. In the face of shifting demographics where white Americans will lose their numeric majority, we see a growing embrace of autocracy to keep the "legitimate" rulers of this country in power. History teaches us that we are in a perilous moment.
