Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education.

Happy to say the rest of us attended no kings protests and added to the rain on his parade.

Totally different energy level at no kings protest. The one i attended had crowds that were motivated, patriotic and energized! Even in the pouring rain!

He thinks his scare tactics will intimidate us. Instead it motivates us. I hope everyone turns out on Saturday. I know I will!

I sure hope that your perspective ends up being primary for this piece. The trumpian intimidation techniques and the resulting cowardice of some law firms needs to be put on full display for all the world to see.

They’re eating their own. Red states are more reliant on this aid than blue states. Never mind that the cuts are inhumane - but I guess that’s part of the allure for the craven GOP.

We literally have a sociopathic moron running the country and close to 40% of the voting population still seems to cheer him on. Something is very broken in this country.

Dementia hate is even more dangerous than spiteful hate. Trump has both.

We’ve become a hateful nation and I’m ashamed of what this country has become.

Have been noticing more teslas driving around the area lately (prob MAGAs buying used from people who no longer want to own one). Virtually all are being driven by young white men. Yes - there’s something wrong.

Maybe she’s arranging a timeshare with Hegseth on the make-up room in the pentagon. Or not the condo fees will be paid by the rest of us.

The warning shot over the bough couldn’t be any clearer. They are waging war on the judiciary. It is a reign of intimidation that has no boundaries. This effing congress better wake the hell up.

He’s taken almost half the nation with him in his depravity with the care and feeding of Fox News. We must find a way to deprogram the followers or the trump train will continue to have the power to destroy.

WTF - this man babbles nonsense and he thinks because no one in his MAGA circle has the balls to call him on it, he must be a genius.

Propaganda only works when it fits the narrative. Too bad so many choose to leave critical thinking at the door.

He’s begging his investors to stick with him and distancing himself from the tariff fiasco. Trump, Musk - thy names are Self-Service 1 and 2.

The USA (aka the moron-in-chief) is encouraging strange bedfellows.

This court just looks for the ridiculous loophole that allows them to do the king’s bidding. Pathetic, corrupt and transparent.

Anyone who normalizes these depraved and demented, sociopathic words from a sitting US president is either likewise depraved or has truly lost their moral compass.

For all of us who were out there - it was so reaffirming! Justice does matter.

Just got back from local Hands Off march. Lots of people, great signs and virtually all the cars that drove by honked in support. A good day for America - but just the beginning.

If only courage were contagious. Maybe it will be - I remain hopeful - but ready to fight in case it’s not.

The f’ing Republican Congress is no more effective in helping America than road kill. Their stink is all over this disastrous administration.

Trump and his goons are the animals he wants America to believe immigrants are. Darker souls have never held so much power.

Pomposity, ego, corrupt intent and mind-numbing narcissism may work in Elon’s pathetically self-important mind but in the real world, not so much. Score 1 for our side. We need it!

SNL couldn’t write anything that matches the absurdity of this press conference. There is no end to the number of dim witted, opportunistic, unethical, spineless people than those willing to lick Trump’s boots. The swamp is alive and well.

My sister - a Fox News viewer 🙄 - told me that Greenland really wanted the US to take them over. The things Fox viewers swallow cannot be underestimated. The propaganda machinery has helped destroy a nation. Guess the Vance’s found out that propaganda doesn’t = reality.

We went from being the respected leader of the free world to a corrupt and bumbling nation that other democratic countries are looking to distance themselves from - all in two months.

Not even a perfect world - just a barely functional one with quasi-competent people. The bar is so low and they can’t even reach it.

None of them do. We don’t need an analysis; we just have to watch how they vote and what they do or don’t say. Trump’s lemmings.

And how about if DOGE cuts out funding for POTUS golf travel and its associated costs for security etc etc. $18M so far this year.
And how much did the commercial for Tesla cars on the WH lawn cost?

True - but we do know that giving into a dictatorial tyrant’s bullying never ends well.
