The people who want to take over the United States forever understand that marketing is a key to their success.
It’s worth revisiting this NY Post cover from January 8, 2025 (a year ago), now that Trump is invoking the name “The Donroe Doctrine” to describe his plans.

If one thinks spending trillions on bombs, deportation, or work requirement checks is an investment is the future bc they will save future money…

This nation had better get it through their heads, that there are those who don't want democracy any longer because it doesn't give them the results they want! No one is going to defend democracy! No one, but WE THE PEOPLE!

This will probably get me yelled at, because I can see the consensus forming here that "strong floors, no ceiling" is the dumbest of all possible slogans. I would argue that it's actually not that bad, but that it's wrong for this moment (please read 🧵before yelling at me)...
