Americans Are Turning Hard Against Trumpism
His insane overreaches are giving Americans a new appreciation for free trade, immigration, and international alliances.

For those who dont follow MAGA and right-wing news, it's full on "The Emperor has no clothes" right now.
Straight up cult behavior and gaslighting, praising what clearly was an unhinged, weird AF rant/speech that did nothing to help their cause or poll numbers.
Sadly this cult is the entire GOP.

Candace Owens: 2 employees at TPUSA had prior knowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I gave their names to Erika Kirk.
Piers Morgan: Do you have any evidence for it?
Owens: I don’t have concrete evidence, which is why I’m not naming them 🤡

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home.
They are lawless bestial scum.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Also, Reagan amnestied millions of illegal aliens (something that seems to vanish from these discussions), eliminated an entire class of nuclear weapons, appointed the first woman to SCOTUS, among other things that Trumpists would today howl are the marks of a RINO cuck
Trump is the opposite of Reagan in every meaningful way.
Reagan would never mock a disabled person, insult POWs, or try and overthrow an election he lost. Reagan wouldn't dare make soldiers kneel before Putin or pardon lunatics that stormed the Capital. All that shit was unthinkable prior to Trump.

Tax cuts for the rich, health care and program cuts for everyone else, adding Trillions in debt, while making Trump’s Gestapo one of the most expensive armies in the world.

/2 Trump appeals to people for a reason: because they’re shitty people with shitty values from a shitty culture. When he’s a nasty, bullying, bigoted thug that appeals to them because those are their values. I’m not going to try to be more thuggy or bigoted or bullying to find common ground.

Put simply:
8 - 12 million of the 24 million ACA exchange enrollees will be priced completely out of coverage.
The other 12 - 16 million will have to pay through the nose to keep theirs, in most cases having to downgrade to a worse plan while still paying far more.

I agree with this. The whistleblower letter written on behalf of Erez Reuveni, a former DOJ senior immigration lawyer, basically describes in extensive detail a contumacious if not criminal course of conduct by Emil Bove and other senior officials at DOJ.
The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they *knew* was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ
