Trump's been a racist all his life, back to when his daddy refused to rent to Black people and beyond. This is what his movement is all about: resentment at any attempt to mitigate against white privilege.
Well, "we" hired a fucking monster and can't be surprised when that fucking monster acts like a fucking monster!
A bunch of the idiots voted for him but we all get to suffer.
Firing all the DEI hires would be discriminatory so he is trying to cover himself while they are on leave and then fire any minority. CYA for court like always.
And our elected representatives never considered making this non discrimination order law? Nah. . . Even after 45, they allowed us to continue on with "norms".
how many democrat administrations did nothing to codify this?
democrat centrists hated the civil rights era, but they took credit for it...biden was one of them.
I don’t think Gaza was the main reason
I think many saw the momentum of Harris and thought they didn’t need to vote
Then there were those who, no matter what, will never vote for a woman.
Regardless, we’re screwed with a traitor in office
Reminds me of Chicago. I guess it is called The City That Works, but it mostly works for those who are directly aligned with the person in power and not so great if you are not.
The point isn’t that the pen undid it, it’s that now because of the executive order, lawsuits will be brought, and one will make it to the Supreme Court to set the new precedent.
Obama had a filibuster proof Senate for about 3 weeks. Franken's race was challenged,he wasn't seated for 6 months. Kennedy was dying of a brain tumor, & Byrd's health was deteriorating every day. Obama barely got the ACA passed before they died. No one in 2009 thought N**is would take over the GOP.
They've always been Nazis.
The ACA isn't healthcare, it's why Heath Insurance Companies are as rich as they are and we have even shittier care than we used to.
Democrats fucked over everyone and we'll here we are.
I don't know where you've been living, but it isn't in reality. In America, if you don't have insurance, you get NO healthcare. Obama didn't create that, it was put in place long before he showed up. Before the ACA, millions of people walked around in pain or died prematurely.
I mean, there have been times when they had both halves of congress and still didn't codify. Just like Roe. It was likely an attempt to appease to conservatives, as if they ever appreciated it.
I think we need to let go of the idea of the DNC actually working for us. Unless the bad actors all retire soon, which is extremely unlikely. Older dems are just neo-cons with rainbow flags and politeness. They won't sell your grandma, but they'll sell her bad medicine.
I think they more so gambled it. They hedged their bets on conservatives not working against them. They bet on the idea that conservatives would try to work with them, as long as they worked with conservatives. That's the DNC policy since the 70s. Despite all the evidence against that idea.
I'm not certain it was to appease but was the plan all along. 🤣 I do not trust Washington Democrats to do anything for the people. AOC and Bernie are like the only two that even LOOK like they're trying. 🤷🏻♂️
AOC and Bernie are also pretty heavily disliked by establishment dems. Those two are treated worse than most conservatives by establishment dems. There's a reason for that. The DNC *is* a conservative party. It's just right-lite. A low calorie version of the same thing.
This is what his racist, low info, poor voters want. They think this will give them more opportunities and jobs. They do not realize unless they’re already wealthy, they’re going to be left behind.
I believe EOs have to comply with existing law, but some time ago Vance responded to a reporter about court decisions with, *They can go ahead and enforce it.* W/contempt for the law and Constitution, what are our options?
Can he even legally do that? Seems like that would violate the Civil Rights Act. Of course by the time the courts even hear the case and rule on it, the damage will have already been done.

“Why’d you vote for the rapist?”
American Crazies:
“He’s gonna’ let me be the mean, petty, racist son-of-a-bitch I’ve always been deep down!”
American Sanes:
“You’re an ignorant pathetic little man.”

“Yeah… no shit! That’s why I’m maga.”

dropsitenews reports 19million voters were motivated not to vote with no intentions to vote trump....stayed home.
#1 reason=gaza genocide (29%) which democrats STILL lie about

the dems signaled to their progressives/leftists - we dont want you
the executive order against discrimination could have been made a law with biden, obama, clinton, carter but it wasnt important.
shows that the dems stand for nothing but the right to G
For sixty years the vow held strong,
Protecting rights, correcting wrong.
But hate has found a way to win,
And let discrimination in.
I learned today that I need to add a /s, but I either forgot or posted this before I learned it.
Either way, I’m an idiot.
This country is a shithouse and will be until the $ is eradicated

Clearly that thought pattern was incorrect.
And by "found out," I mean we let fascists take control of the US and now we're about to find out what happens next.
