Do not normalize him. He lies as he breathes. He’s the only president in American history who lost an election and refused to concede. He tried to overthrow an American election. I don’t care about his debate strategy. I don’t care about his VP pick.
Do not normalize him.
Fun Fact: every single state that voted for Donald Trump received more $$ from the federal government than its taxpayers contributed. That’s right. Every red state is a federal “welfare” state requiring the generosity and largesse of blue state taxpayers.

Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas have succeeded in trashing the last shreds of respect and credibility of the US Supreme Court. The thought that either of these individuals are able to rule on presidential immunity or anything concerning the J6 insurrection is appalling.
Pro-tip: the biggest story in the country today should be that a US Supreme Court justice flew an upside down "stop the steal," pro-trump American flag outside his home within days of Jan6th...AND while the court was debating 2020 election cases.
