💯💯 This is why as it's playing out I feel bad for all the Americans who bought the lies that this was about correcting bad trade deals and strengthening their domestic economies. It's just DonT using official sounding terms, terriff, to inject uncertainty for his personal benefit.

It makes sense if you think about it through the lens of "double originalism" where you think about how someone claiming to be an originalist at the time of the founding would have understood government. There can't be a democracy if there was not already one at the exact moment of the founding./s

They are seriously wayyyy high on their own supply at this point, treating a remarkably slim and fragile election victory as a demonstrative mandate to get this unpopular, utterly laffy-taffy shit off.

I walk past the FBI head quarters building everyday on my way home from work. These days I look up and wonder just what the hell a day of work looks like in there right now. Smh.

To be real tho, it's not rhetoric rn. The billionaire admin IS acting to break our government while never having considered paying a mere FAIR share. Maybe, just maybe, they never vibed with democracy from way back.

His 2nd run for office was motivated by a desire to evade incarceration more than a desire to govern. He's in it now to enrich him and the people who put him there. The easiest way to do it is at the people's expense. This term is a fire-sale of America. It's get while the setting's good.
