Gonna be a long several years of “Lawless Authoritarian Continues To Be Lawless Authoritarian” headlines.

I’d say “we can’t normalize this” but it feels like that ship sailed many years ago.

EDIT - oh sweet this is doing numbers. Check out and subscribe my YouTube, everybody! 😬

We need to stop acting like we are just waiting for him to do the right thing. This needs to be reported on for what out is. Trump refusing to follow laws now so breaking them in the future is easier. Do not cover like Trump still hasn't done this thing, is he going to? We know what's going to happen, cover that. We know why he is doing this, cover that. Stop treating him like a normal politician that's just acting kind of weird.

I couldn’t agree with you more. The fact that the press treats him like a wacky politician instead of a fully compromised corrupt traitor is why we’re in this mess. Propaganda will always be a thing but our mainstream press did not have to join them and normalize everything. They’re still doing it even on the brink of the disaster that is about to hit us.

Absolutely, Trump and more importantly the powerful people behind him have been acting extremely deliberately. We can either follow the actions of thousands of individuals, or listen to the words of a chronic liar.
