Trump's team is in "preliminary discussions about making significant changes to Medicaid, food stamps & other federal safety net programs to offset the enormous cost of extending Trump’s 2017 tax cuts next year.”

Medicaid, food stamps are now on the chopping block to fund tax cuts for billionaires.

Mandate? Trump is now under 50% in the popular vote with his margin ranking 44th out of 51 elections since 1824.

4 Democrats won Senate seats in states Trump carried—compared to zero in 16 and 20.

GOP poised for its smallest House majority since the U.S. had 50 states.

Do not give an inch! Every time this is said, by him or by the press, knock it down! Rhetoric matters!

Trump's win was so narrow, it's very likely it was made up of people who had no idea what he was actually going to do in office.

Dear Joe & Mika,

I get it. I’ll meet with ANYONE of good faith who disagrees with me. But Trump is NOT a man of good faith. He is at war against our democracy & the rule of law. U normalize him by meeting with him. Please don’t.

Best,

The whole point of 2 Dads Defending Democracy that @walshfreedom.bsky.social & I did was to engage those we disagree with & to try & understand. However, Joe is correct. Trump made it clear he considers people like us, defenders of Democracy, to be enemies. It would be hard to sit with him now.

Normalizing Trump is a bad idea.
