I so wish I could disagree with this, but it’s not possible. There is no going back. And unless we want to continue to live under an authoritarian kleptocracy, we’d better figure out how to fight on the terms the times require.

@jvl.bsky.social gets it right here. America’s election of Trump was an historically unprecedented act of national seppuku (but with none of the honor or dignity), and the world — long contemptuous of our arrogant immaturity — sees an opportunity to move on without us. It is, and it should.

This isn’t a good idea even if the plane was being donated to the U.S. government. But Trump GETS TO KEEP THE PLANE??? It’s simply a cash payment to Trump in exchange for favors. Just wildly illegal.
