Trump is a firm believer in his Golden Rule: Those who have the gold make the rules.

So tired of having to think about the goddamned president all the time. The president should have to think about me all the time. I should think about my job or anime or whatever I want.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Trans youth deserve safe schools, loving homes, and the medical care they need.

It’s the passive-aggressiveness that really gets me. The bullying stance and behavior. So toxic in all the ways. Red flags flying everywhere. Such a pompous ass. Complete douchebag. 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Yep. I caught his comment about unelected bureaucrats and immediately thought about Musk. Really, dude???
And it's over.

He went back to anti-trans stuff several times, threatened Greenland and Panama, praised his own unilateral executive actions and tarriffs, called against "unelected bureaucrats" controlling government while allowing Musk to.

And now it's over.

absolutely insane for Trump to say he was saved by God during a shooting to the family whose husband/dad was killed in said shooting

Imagine finishing your speech by talking about how immigrants crossed oceans and sacrificed their lives to give us our freedoms and liberty—after spending a quarter of it saying every immigrant is a murderous criminal.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.

But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.

He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

Donald Trump is embarrassing the United States on the world stage. We are a country that stands up to dictators and fights for democracy.

Minnesota stands firmly with our allies in Ukraine.

The Hebrew term for gratitude translates as “recognizing the good.”

Awaken to the good and give thanks.

Where is the outrage that gas prices haven’t gone down and egg prices are thru the roof - higher than ever? Weren’t those supposed to be “quick wins” for the new circus? 🫠🫠🫠

In 1974, I started kindergarten. My mom made this for me for my crayons & scissors in. I still have it. I still use it. I wouldn’t get rid of it for the world. Now I use it for my glasses case, contact lens case & travel contact lens solution. 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷 #nostalgia #memories #handmade #treasures #momlove

I hope I commit the “sin of empathy” every single day of my life.

And if I go to hell for being empathic, so be it.
