Every Trump policy is drafted as if the history of Black people in America does not exist. As if none of it, from the beginning, until the first of December 2025, ever occurred.

He is a fanboy of violent rulers. He praised Duterte of the Philippines for killing alleged drug dealers without arrest or trial. He loved that, and has done his own (by blowing up boats).
He loves Putin, Kim...anybody who's a "strongman" like he wishes he were.

Trump was rumored to have had the files cleaned of all names except Democrats – and the last couple of days, has been saying he has nothing to do with Epstein, it was only Democrats who were Epstein's friends.

He's working on getting that erased, and putting all of his enemies behind bars. Also, choosing ballet for the Kennedy Center, drawing up invasion plans, and physically destroying the White House.

That's true - his $ went mostly to Dems while he wanted influence in NY during the Clinton era. Then he became Reform, and then GOP, as he began to be serious about running. The GOP was the only possible pathway for him (partly because he hated Obama so much he would never be in the same party).

They meant flee to a relative's home outside the five boroughs for Thanksgiving dinner. And then return to their homes in the City, having forgotten they ever used the hyperbole of "leave the city".
