Gov. Newsom didn't request the National Guard be deployed to CA following peaceful demonstrations. Trump sent them anyway. It's the first time in 60 years a president has made that choice.
Trump's goal isn't to keep Californians safe. His goal is to cause chaos, because chaos is good for Trump.

For the antisemites in the back, saying “Jews are OK, it’s Zionists who are bad” is the same as saying “Women are OK, it’s Feminists who are bad” or “Black people are OK, it’s BLM people who are bad” or “Gay people are OK, it’s Trans people who are bad.” You don’t get a pass.

That map is so excruciating. Fucking uneducated white people…
PONDER THIS…
Have you ever noticed that when shit goes down, people demand that minorities be held responsible for their entire ethnic group? White folks are exempt from that demand.
When a Black person does something bad, the entire Black community must answer for it. Why is that?

I'm not saying anyone SHOULD be smug and condescending — honestly, though, if you're anti-vaccinating babies I'm gonna be — but there's an asymmetry here. Liberals torture themselves ("Am I displaying enough empathy for people who'd kill me?") while MAGA says "fuck you" and wins the popular vote.

That he was the only means of expressing anti-incumbent sentiment is a mitigating factor, I’ll allow, but doesn’t change the fact that he ran a Nazi campaign that emphasized bigotry over economics.

we have an entire cultural archetype of the boorish racist who “tells it like it is!” of course voters knew and quite a few of them either liked it, thought he was correct, or understood the racism as confirmation that he was an honest broker, as per the archetype
The most condescending take is truly “voters didn’t know Trump was that racist.” They either liked it, a lot, or didn’t find it all that objectionable. A reality we have to deal with.
