Yes, yes. All those adverts last night during the Super Bowl, and adverts during every podcast, and partnering with TV channels, and the almost every major proferssional sports organization. Yes, we sure do have a problem.

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.
Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

The US president has exactly zero idea of what has actually made America great, and that seems like a real drawback for someone who claims to want to make it great again.

Does this effort include his calling affordability a hoax or nah?
Trump tries — again — to deliver a winning message on affordability

Following the Kent State massacre in May 1970, a Gallup poll showed that 58% of Americans thought the shootings were justified. The night *before* the killings, Ohio's GOP governor described the student protesters this way: "They're the worst type of people that we harbor in America."

When we do eventually look back, I think The Horrors is at least a contender to be the name by which this time in US history becomes known.
