These quick thoughts by Michael Jochum on the disturbing reason Trump gets as much support as he does is a must-read 👇

I used to wonder how it was possible that Trump could have won in 2016, and then again in 2024, given how emotionally toxic and depraved he is.

I don’t wonder anymore. I think he won for that exact reason. Because he carried at least one broken shard to reflect the broken shards in millions of others.

If you’re a racist, you found your guy. If you’re a misogynist, you found your guy. If money is your only religion, you found your guy. If your heart is armored shut, you found your guy. If you mock the disabled, you found your guy. If intelligence makes you insecure, you found your guy. If you’re a sexual predator, you found your guy. If you trade in humiliation and conspiracy and filth, you found your guy.

If you’ve never done a single hour of emotional inventory, you found your guy. If you cheat, stiff contractors, bankrupt your obligations, and call it savvy, you found your guy. If you lie as easily as you breathe, you found your guy. If cruelty feels like strength, you found your guy. If white grievance is your comfort food, you found your guy. If your ego is a black hole no title can fill, you found your guy. If warmongering fuels your ego, you found your guy, If empathy feels like weakness and dominance feels like oxygen, you found your guy.

If he’d only carried one or two of these pathologies, he might have been dismissed as just another loud, damaged man. But he carried a buffet of them. That was the appeal. Millions could locate themselves somewhere in the wreckage. They didn’t have to agree with all of it. They just had to recognize a piece of themselves in it.

It was never really about him. It was about the validation. The absolution. The permission. He didn’t invent the resentment; he amplified it. He didn’t create the cruelty; he normalized it. He gave millions the intoxicating relief of hearing their ugliest impulses echoed back at rally volume.

Trump is a symptom. The deeper illness is collective. If there’s one sentence that defines his power, it’s this: “He says the things I’m thinking.”

And that’s the part that should chill us.

Because what does it say about us that so many were thinking those things? That tens of millions of Americans harbored resentments so deep, so seething, that they were simply waiting for a demagogue to baptize them as virtue? That after decades of supposed progress on race, gender, and equality, so many white men felt so threatened, so displaced, so furious, that cruelty became a political platform?

Maybe we were living in a fool’s paradise, mistaking silence for healing, politeness for progress.

Now the mask is off. Now we know.

And knowing is a far more dangerous place to stand.

Ashley St. Clair implies Elon Musk interfered in the 2024 election: “In October, Elon tells me he is ready to release his ‘anomaly in the matrix.’ He says he has 10K lasers in space, referring to his satellites. He says this is not a piece they’ll see on the chess board. Shortly after that, he’s sending me internal data from America PAC, real-time delta vote metrics. On election night, Elon left Mar-a-Lago early and he told me yeah I knew hours ago that Trump won, my team has the best real time data. How do you have real time data?”

An American voice:

“Listen up, Trump, and every dumb f... in Washington who still thinks the Strait of Hormuz is some kind of American parking lot.

This aint international waters. Never was. Never will be.

Under the law of the sea, every coastal country gets twelve nautical miles of its own goddamn territorial water. The narrowest choke point in Hormuz is only twenty one miles wide. That means Iran and Oman own the whole fucking strait from shore to shore. Overlapping. Locked. Closed. No high seas. No open ocean free for all.

Iran controls the big islands too, Qeshm, Hormuz, Larak, Abu Musa, the whole chain. You sail through, you are in somebody elses house.

Iran never even signed that UNCLOS treaty, so they dont have to play your transit passage game. They say innocent passage and they mean it. You bring guns or you bring trouble, they can say no.

America starts wars because it never learned geography in school. They  bomb first, read the map later. Before you drag us into another bloodbath, open a f...ing atlas. The water belongs to the land that touches it. Not to the country that prints the most dollars.
Learn it now or bleed for it later.

An African immigrant sent 10's of 1000's of of PRE-FILLED Ballot applications ( disguised as official Government docs ) to voters in swing states.

His name is Elon Musk, & he spends every waking hour on Twitter talking about immigrant voter fraud.

If the Epstein files were full of Black men, the arrests would be done, the mugshots public, and the prison sentences handed down. Justice isn’t slow it’s f**king selective.

Leaked video shows ICE raid children's dorm—destroy handwritten letters & drawings before they can be mailed.

"They noticed we were writing letters asking for freedom," she says. "So they entered our room to rip them up."

"They threw away all my drawings—my mom liked them," cries the daughter.

Univision's Lidia Terrazas added in comments:
"Reported on this issue last week, but had not had the chance to post the proof."

"15-year-old Cariexis Quintero, who has the intellectual capacity of a 7-year-old, described how guards in the Dilley Detention Center stormed in her room looking for drawings and letters."

"They destroyed what they found—This is just one of several similar complaints received."
