Some are saying Democrats shouldn't attend Donald Trump's State of the Union.
I disagree.
They should attend. And the minute he starts speaking, start getting up, one-by-one, and solemnly leave the chamber.
It will be all anyone talks about the next day. And will drive Donald crazy.

I’m so fucking ashamed of my country.
This just happened in the Oval Office:
Trump, Vance, and Zelenskyy all raised their voices, shouting over each out.
Trump and Vance told Zelenskyy: "You have to be thankful. You don't have the cards."
Trump mocked Zelenskyy – to his face, saying, "I don't want a cease fire."

Elon Musk & his team of hackers have hijacked your personal information. Musk - who no one elected - is going to decide what he thinks should be cut from the U.S. government. We are all being held hostage by a rogue government who couldn’t care less about anyone but their own billionaire interests.

Appointing wildly incompetent people to your cabinet is just another way of trolling the people who didn't vote for you. America be damned.

We’ve learned that the person involved in the tragedy in New Orleans was a U.S citizen radicalized by ISIS.
Does this not infuriate you? Trump doesn’t give a damn about us, he’s intentionally misleading the country and using people’s pain for his own political gain.

my armchair psychological diagnosis is that the drive to accumulate as much wealth as possible eats away at the drive for self-improvement or the internal desire to cultivate any skills or tastes. these people build huge mounds of treasure and then essentially just sit around looking at it, empty.
find it genuinely delighting that people with enough money to never work again (and do literally anything they want anywhere in the world at any time) seemingly have nothing going on in their lives and are so miserable they are just spending the holidays frantically posting

Glad MAGA voters are hearing what Musk, Vivek, and the elites of the GOP think of them. They've always looked down on Trump voters. They mock them as stupid and ignorant behind their backs. Now Musk is calling them "contemptible fools."
Well, here's your new master, MAGA. Enjoy.

Donald Trump is unnerved by "President Musk." It signals that mockery, ridicule, & humor remain some of the most effective weapons to cut down, humiliate, & weaken aspiring authoritarians and tyrants.
