He literally told you what he was going to do and you voted for him. A 1.5% winning margin. 2.5 million votes. America wants a strongman. America wants a dictator. America wants a king.
I did not. And a lot of others did not. We do not want this. The real question is, what are we going to do about it? I genuinely hope that Donald's fuck around phase is firmly met with a reciprocal "find out."
Pick up and read Thomas Paine’s Common Sense. As important today as it was back in Paine’s time when he was revealing the tyrannies of King George’s reign against the movement toward freedom, liberty and Independence in the American colonies.
The time for deciding is now!
I swear, "Common Sense" hasn't aged a day. As a young Canadian high school student taking the American History elective, it had me utterly convinced of the justice of the Patriots' cause. But these ideals are useless if the people refuse to stand and fight for them. It's not too late yet.
The hole is getting deeper very quickly. Nearing the point where damage done may take years and years to remedy. Who knows how much chaos has been infused into the gov’t data systems?
It’s no longer a fantasy…his OR anyone else’s. It’s not even just a mere threat anymore. This is actual, short-term reality unless WE fight it, starting now.
I think democracy just took its last breath. Everything happening and not ONE GOP stood up against Patel. Not one. By the time court cases reach SC the barn will be burned to the ground.
Collins and Murkowski voted against his confirmation. Just wasn't enough with the slim margin between D & R in the senate. They would have needed 2 more votes. Final vote was 51-49. Still Infuriating though.
"We Fought The American Revolutionary War To Avoid This!" then why did your supposedly divinely inspired founding fathers set up things to result in an elected monarchy?

I hope I am wrong.
Anyone remember the lyrics to Viva La Vida (Coldplay, 2008)? Here’s an excerpt:
“Revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate. Just a puppet on a lonely string. Aw, who would ever wanna be king?”
I will send a fully armed battalion to remind you of my love!”
Da da da da da, dat da da da die ya da…
