@maxwellfrost.bsky.social is 💯 right. While MAGA is falling apart, the leftovers are dangerously faithful to Trump, and they will see his murder-laden posts as a call to action. Rhetoric that inspires violence must be challenged by republicans.

Trump's rhetoric toward Democratic lawmakers is a disgrace—it’s not even close to acceptable coming from an American President.
Republican Senators need to show some courage and state plainly that the President is not above the law. That is the bare minimum.

This has been Trump's superpower since 2016, and the secret to his success:
♦️He doesn't hide his crimes: He boasts of them.
♦️His case: Everybody does these things-- I'm the only one being honest about it.
Effective, but false:
♦️Many are corrupt, many are abusers. But he's in a league all his own.

"The message is not that Trump is innocent, it's that *everyone is guilty.* Everyone assaults women, cheats on their taxes, uses public office for private gain. Propriety and following the rules? That stuff is for suckers. In a world of grift and graft, the most corrupt man should be king."

truly it is a mystery why women find it hard to get ahead in academia
"I could be a mentor to this very sharp person but as they aren't interested in me romantically I'm going to have to cut off all communication with them."
"Also, only men get the best mentors like me who can help them get into top journals. Clearly that's because men have higher IQ than women."
