The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.

the other thing about these moves is that the union becomes untenable if your access to the good faith and protection of the national government is contingent on whether you renounce your co-sovereignty as a state and submit to the whims of a president who has claimed sovereign authority
And schools are just one example.
Want to end resistance from blue states who won’t facilitate sending immigrants to Guantanamo? We’re turning off Social Security payments to your residents until your police start to comply with ICE. 9/x
