Not the point of this thread, but “do you think Trump’s win marks the defeat of identity politics” is SUCH a tell.

His win is an absolute VICTORY for identity politics.

If we accept that “angry white evangelical grievance” is an identity.

Which is ABSOLUTELY is. Thru and thru.
Butler’s response is *exactly* correct. To accept the premise that ‘woke’ is something outside of a right wing moral panic is to be a dupe.

80% of lumber in the US comes from Canada. Add in 25% tariff and enjoy the price of your new home. For the fake cowboys, RAM trucks are made in Mexico.

Morning Joe decided to normalize relations with Donald Trump.

ABC News decided to hand Trump a $15 million settlement payment.

"Legacy" media wants to normalize Trump. We can't let it.

JOURNALISM 101 RULE: If someone says it’s raining, and another person says it’s dry, it’s not your job to quote them both. Your job is to look out of the fucking window and find out which is true. — Now more than ever.
