Donald Trump thinks only Democrats receive government assistance, so he’s more than willing to cut Medicare and Medicaid and SNAP benefits to spite them.

Wait until he finds out 7 of the 10 states most dependent on federal assistance were Republican-voting.

What's behind Trump’s gonzo cabinet nominations?

Flood the zone? Yes, but it's deeper than that.

Trump wants to deflect our attention while he and his fellow billionaires loot America.

He's on his way to creating a government of billionaires, by billionaires, for billionaires.

Now is not the time for acceptance and resignation. This is - yet again - a time for commitment and action.

Do not say you’re weary - before the battle has been joined. Simply unacceptable.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc
