He’s a T Rex. You mate with him or he devours you.. This guy is a wrecking ball. It’s code red. You’re still playing by the old set of rules... This is serious....He’s unmoored and unhinged. The goal is the world in his image. He’s a narcissist.
Donald Trump is headed to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland to brag about wrecking the American economy.

That's why I've also flown to Davos — with an extra suitcase of kneepads for those caving to Trump's insanity — to vigorously defend California as an alternative to Trump's world disorder.
Gov. Newsom at Davos rips into world leaders who think they can appease Trump: “I should have brought a bunch of knee pads for all the world leaders.…this is pathetic”

Compare & contrast. This is Trump’s demand for Greenland. And this is Hitler’s for the Sudetenland.

There is no difference. The language. The unstoppable need to dominate. The megalomania. It’s the same.

And Keir Starmer’s response is appeasement. We are in that moment.

Where is #Target on the #ICE actions in #Minneapolis? They are based there, rely on cheap labour of residents of #Minneapolis, rely on citizens of Minneapolis to shop there. Don't they have a view on the assault of the community in which they operate?

Haven't seen a sled protest like this before. Kudos. The anti-tyrant bowling ball is perhaps the most eye-catching. Nice loon sled. Who says protesting doesn't have to be fun and community-building?
