⚠️Trump’s withdrawal from WHO is unlawful until is is approved by Congress.
The U.S. entered WHO membership through a 1948 joint resolution passed by both houses of Congress.

The arc:
1. “It wasn’t a Nazi salute.”
2. “Maybe it was a Nazi salute but it was a joke.”
3. “It wasn’t a joke but it was owning the libs.”
4. “It wasn’t owning the libs but so what?”
5. “Actually, Hitler had some good ideas….”
AOC is correct. We all should be horrified. America is on the eve of authoritarian fascism. On January 20th, America will become a facsimile of 1934 Germany. 😳👇
