Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez states that we should be questioning Trump’s state of mind at this point. His behavior is not new folks. At the end of the day, he needs to be removed.

You’ll be disappointed! Every state shifted to the right last Nov compared to 2020 - even in states that Kamala won!
Americans rejected the best candidate because she was black & female - & they didn’t care that Trump is a criminal & rapist!
What does that tell you? 😡

In economics they teach us that paying workers more than the market rate is harmful because it means a company can’t afford to hire as many workers. It’s important to realize that overpaying executives and shareholders does that too while helping fewer people.
Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.

BTW, Bass Pro Shop just published their Black Friday ad, no assault weapons, only ones used for hunting. I emailed them and thanked them for the sanity. I might spend some money in there, just because. You can spend $2K on a crossbow, who knew?

The fact that this, and every other Trump pardonee who has subsequently broken the law, has not ended Trump's political career, that it barely even registers on the national discourse, underlines just how far we are from a functioning democracy that values accountability.
A man pardoned by Donald Trump for his role in January 6th - he assaulted Capitol Police officers with bear spray & a metal whip - has avoided prison for child sex crimes because of the president’s sweeping pardon, despite pleading guilty to soliciting what he believed was a 15-year-old girl for sex
