(4) Trump and the Republicans don't have an advantage over Democrats because they *better understand heartland Americans.*
They have an advantage over Democrats because they created their own universe of propaganda outlets, and then went out and bought all the mainstream outlets.
Duh.

I used to babysit the neighbors kids, starting when I was 9! My mom was right next door of course. It was fine.

Froggie vs. ICE: The asymmetrical symbol of a failing authoritarian state.
You’ve seen the video.
An inflatable frog at a Portland protest.
Unarmed. Unbothered. Unapologetically absurd.
And ICE panics.
They fire pepper spray up a frog caricature's ass.
The frog wins.

Can't pull a fascist takeover if you can't keep the lights on, remember that. These people are cowards and dipshits and can't find their ass from a hole in the ground. Remember that. Those who can keep the lights on, win the prize. And mutual aid will be the only light available. So we will win.
