Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy.

If they wanted to take over the country, they only had to wait like three weeks until every technocratic nerd was unreachably distracted.
They fundamentally do not understand us, and that is why they will lose.

The ONLY way to stop Trump’s corrupt moves is to drive down his approval rating, which will evaporate his political muscle.
The Democrats understand this and are working on it.
Most folks on here don’t understand this, and are wasting their time whining about the Democrats.

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*
2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything
3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can
4. Citizens march en mass

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.
I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.
But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are
