He’s right. Period.
I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

At some point people are going to finally believe that these seemingly random comments are his actual plans and he has people that work for him happy to make it happen. Everything he's thrown out has been executed.
Markets are tumbling, but listen to this entire thing. He is going to do this unless we mobilize.
Trump plans to disappear American prisoners into that hellhole in El Salvador. Believe him when he says this.

Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

America taking over Greenland is a foolish idea. America destroying its relationship with Canada is utter idiocy. America applying tariffs and engaging in trade wars with neighbors is economic nonsense. A lunatic is holding America hostage and his enablers are making fools of themselves.

Elon Musk is losing his mind over protests at Tesla dealerships.
Why? His fortune is collapsing.
Nearly all of it is Tesla stock.
You know what to do, America. If you want to save our government from a coup, apparently the rebels’ weak spot is protesting and boycotting Tesla.
