🧵How Low Can He Go?
Republican Approval Sets Trump's Floor
Trump can be hated by a majority of America and still be just as dangerous. The number that matters—the only number that actually restrains him—is Republican approval.

After the murders of Alex Pretti and Renée Good, the number of ice watch volunteers in Minnesota went up, not down.
If Germans had done that for the Jews, the holocaust would’ve never happened.

I think we are giving ICE too much credit. They are evil, but they are following the orders (in a very incompetent and cruel manner) of the more powerful villains: Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, and Kristi Noem.
We can't let this vicious authoritarian regime subcontract to ICE the blame from voters.

We were never taught that fascism WAS here in the 30s.
It held giant rallies, the most popular radio show, & senators and house members putting Nazi propaganda in the speeches and op-eds.
