From NYC, so we always knew Donny was a dangerous fraud. What we didn't know was how many would be conned, cowed or just cave
Oof .
Sorry . Should've checked your bio .

He didn't ask for it ?
He & all farmers have been crying because Trump's brilliant tariffs have tanked their farm exports .
You think he's going to turn down the $ millions in government handouts ?
He's on government welfare now . A hundred times bigger than $500 per month .

His attacks on America’s allies are an extension of his campaign to dismantle the defenses of the West & hand over control of the world to a cabal of kleptocrats in Moscow, Beijing, Riyadh & Doha in the misguided hope that they will share the loot & accept him as a peer .

Unless Time is implying that the future of AI, the global economy, & autonomous humanity itself is hanging in mid-air, suspended by nothing but the greed-drenched promises of a few tech broligarchs who lack the courage to do more than drink pina coladas on a rooftop terrace, it is pretty obscene .

Now, if it wasn't earlier, it's now justified for NATO - or a coalition of
European countries - to join Ukraine in blowing it to smithereens .

Right .
It's importantvto alert naive viewers about that .
As tiresome as it is .

This is a big moment .
This is precisely what his voters need to hear .

Almost as if he doesn't care if he's being played ...
he likes being played ...
Almost as if he just wants to feel close to Putin .

I'd like to see the next Dem candidate for president (& the entire party) run on a platform of the United States being assertive & law-abiding enough to investigate, prosecute & punish all who violate inter- & national law, including heads of state, promoting murder, piracy & treason.
Also join ICC.

The answer to why the few remaining intellectually coherent Republicans in government are going along with it is ... fear .
Not just fear of losing their next election or retirement cushion on corporate boards .
Fear of actual violence against their families . We're dealing with mafia autocrats .

Selling off the government for parts (privatization) was a Reagan-era idea that was championed by conservatives & never effectively refuted by Democrats .
The next generation of hyper-wealthy conservatives has simply taken it to the next level .
They're selling off America itself .

Because Americans had become more violent, greedy & uninformed than you (or we) had ever imagined .
The weakness was there & malicious actors spent the past 45 years exacerbating & exploiting it .
The bad guys waged a targeted & relentless war .
The good guys didn't even know there was a battle .

Those worried about him being a king are badly understating it .
Trump wants to become a totalitarian emperor .
Dems (& journalists) need to say it .
No Kings .
No Dictators .
No Traitors .
