For those that were bullied, this is an incredibly triggering time.
It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.
I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.
That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board.
Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

Bingo. I keep telling people I know that there’s no grand plan here, or to anything he does. He’s not playing 4D chess. He’s a fascistic sociopath that seeks adoration and applause for everything he does, and he wants to be the focus of EVERYTHING.
It’s that simple, folks, don’t overthink it.

The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants.

Anyone vaguely recall mentions of guardrails just three short months ago? You can forget about them now. Brace for impact.

This is how Trump will turn the U.S. into an authoritarian regime. Watch, listen.
Rachel Maddow @maddow.msnbc.com is releasing these in the middle of the night. Perhaps she is, justifiably, frightened.
She should be. We ALL should.
Put a convicted and known criminal in the White House and give him unlimited powers?
What could possibly go wrong?

For your sanity, try not to react to every headline. Discretion is one way we will survive the next four years.
Before whatever is about to happen happens: There will be a lot of reporting and commentary about executive orders. Much of that reporting, at least initially, will regurgitate what the White House *says* the orders do as opposed to what they can *actually* do based on the text and controlling law.
