In hindsight, it was probably a bad idea for voters to put the full force of the US state apparatus and military in the hands of a guy who bragged that he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and not lose any support, and who was also granted immunity by the Supreme Court before taking office.

Listen, you can’t break the Trump cult, but they are the minority.
We need a sustained presence of Democrats in rural spaces to talk to their neighbors and run for office. Seats go uncontested for decades.
Hate gerrymandering? Get Democrats on every ballot and every race. We have to run to win.

Good morning. Trump is protecting Epstein files. The confederacy lost and they were traitors, mRNA vaccines are the future, cops shouldn’t wear masks, Trump cut taxes for the rich and ripped benefits from the poor.

Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just admitted that the Big Ugly Bill's "Trump Accounts" are a "backdoor for privatizing Social Security."
This follows Trump and DOGE slashing SSA staffing levels to record lows.
Make no mistake: the Trump regime is waging war on Social Security.
