The White House's memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

In 2018 Trump’s 25% steel & 10% aluminum tariffs raised costs for manufacturers, leading to higher consumer prices in cars, appliances, canned goods, & construction. While U.S. steelmakers benefited, steel-using industries saw job losses. Retaliatory tariffs & supply chain issues worsened inflation.

I for one am not going to be talked into the idea that we benefit by giving delusional and bigoted ideas air and validity. Wish yall could for once show solidarity with pediatrics and stand against this man.
So, you may ask, why do I get so angry about the new liberal spin on RFK Jr, as in, "he gets some things right, so let's collaborate on those" or "we have to work with him because he has a huge following we need to reach"? Because I've seen this movie before. 1/
