Mostly dumbfounded.
I am so deeply over this shit. Do you need for him to actually say the words, “I am a proud fascist who aspires to full dictatorship,” or is it enough that he’s mobilizing militaristic government units to raid the citizenry under the guise of immigration policy?

Trump is doing nicely in his Scapegoating 101 Module. Prof. Goebbels would be proud.

“I absolutely need to stay home. I’m super sick and should absolutely not be in the office both for my health and the health of my coworkers…”

…is what I’d say if I wasn’t American and infected with some latent puritanical drive to prioritize work over all else

The ruling class is feeding - and nearly all proposed programs by the current majority party are furthering - a system that exacerbates wealth disparities and then punishes people for not being able to keep up.

This is a joke. This entire country is the unwitting cast of a wealthy narcissist’s reality show whose aim is to see how far a they can take the joke before people figure it out. Only it went wrong; we didn’t *ever* figure it out.

He’s doing all the things. The stuff about which you said was “just mouthing off,” “playing to his base,” “he’d never really enact.”

Looking forward to seeing how you twist personal & collective history to defend the indefensible today.

This entire tickety tockety nonsense was initiated by that marmalade megalomaniac, and the current denouement is entirely of his own design. Wag that dog! #tiktok #trump #endtimes

LET’S GET READY TO RUUUMBLEEEE FOR FAILURE, SEGREGATION, AND INEQUITY!!! Can’t wait to see how McMahon completes the GOPs 40-year plan to systematically dismantle public education. They’ve done such a stellar job, all she has to do is bring it home. Piledrive democracy, amirite???

right wingers spent 45 years building a massive and hugely effective propaganda system across old and new media that tells cult adherents every last one of their worst impulses is correct, 24/7

but yes it's a hand full of academics, journalists and civil rights activists that are the problem

“But to suggest we should yield even a little…to suggest we should compromise…is unacceptable. It is shameful and cowardly. We cannot abandon the most vulnerable communities to assuage the most powerful. Even if we did, it would never be enough.” - Roxane Gay

To suggest we should yield even a little to Trump’s odious politics is unacceptable. Even if we did, it would never be enough.
