It is a clear metaphor for what Trump is doing to democracy in America. An illegal unilateral decision to destroy something that belongs to the American people, not Donald Trump.
Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

What I can't believe is that some wealthy Dems are just now noticing what the US govt has been doing to us for years, to favor the wealthy.
The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.
The system is broken.
