Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe.
And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.

We need to make it illegal for AI models to offer advertising. And, we need to really examine referral fees as well.
The last thing we need is to have algorithms designed to maximize revenue driving LLM output and interactions.
We need to have learned our lessons from algos in social media

Remember the wonderful Biden economy. Last January, the expected US economic growth was 2.5-3%.
But now we have the Trump economy.
Yesterday, the US Fed cut its US growth forecast from 1.7% to 1.4%, but it is likely to fall further.
Trump & his supporters are to blame.

My kids know an American flag when they see one – but they don't yet know all that it represents.
When they're old enough, here is what I'm going to tell them:

Donald Trump's policies are cruel and harmful. They're also insulting, to his opponents and supporters alike.
His actions and claims insult the intelligence of the American people - and our shared values.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Despite swearing otherwise just months ago, Republicans have now revealed their plan to take Medicaid away from millions of Americans.
There has to be accountability - for the harm and for the lies.

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution?

We can argue over whether individuals or politicians are better stewards of capital.
I think the goal should be for politicians to try to efficiently collect and handle what a country needs to support those most in need, so they can live their lives in a meaningful way.

Trump has perfected the art of Pareto Worsening, a change in allocation making at least one person worse off without making a single person better off.
Trade war, Medicaid cuts, science cuts, there are no winners here, only losers.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.
So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.
So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.
