📌Re-upping this one tonight on the news the grotesque America-attacking Trump will minimize slavery in our museums.
📌Listen to me, dammit: EVERYTHING this 79-year-old, dying lowlife does is to throw red meat to his racist base who elected him across the country.
📌It's the racism, stupid.

Important under-the-radar result: the People's Party only got 139,000 votes across the country yesterday. More people saw Taylor Swift in Toronto than voted for the People's Party.
