This regime is almost to a man fascist ideologues high on their own supply, of course they’re foolishly overconfident. They wouldn’t have started this shit if they weren’t.

Lousy interview. Just let the guy stand there and lie. So disappointing.

Lemire...why are you conflating sending US military to stand against US civilians as a savvy political decision?

fascism unleashed-is this really what republicans will continue to support? what a disgrace & disrespect to our military-overstepping local law enforcement-not letting them do their job & de-escalate any violence-this is domestic terrorism-what plans are there to house/feed/shower/toilets, etc-

Trump believes he lives in a TV show and his enablers use this to further their own nefarious agenda.

Hitler was delighted with the invasion of the Soviet Union. Didn’t end well. Reporting on delusional fascists and their bad tales isn’t actual journalism, it’s note taking

You’re a gutter trash Nazi traitor and I hope we put filth like you in prison for life.

“To be brave and non-violent in the face of tyranny, to be strong and restrained, to resist with our hearts filled with anger but not succumb to that anger — is difficult …May we look back on this hellish time and feel proud of what we did.”
Robert Reich

Let him be delighted. He is misjudging the majority of people and living in his MAGA bubble. As long as we show up and speak up and never give up we are winning. It’s apathy, silence, and obedience to the regime that makes us the “losers” he believes we are.

What’s the excuse for Texas?

An anonymous source says it’s going perfectly. You fell for their propaganda just like Maggie Haberman and Katy Tur.

Americans hate disruption and destruction.
The demonstrators carried Mexican flags. How politically blind are they?
If they are Americans or want to be, fly the American flag, optics count!
We ignored the border issue for years. We are now facing a despot who reads the public much better them we do.

Delighted? I don't think so. These people panic constantly. They may feel that this will help with thier base, but they are losing support, only marginally adding to thier margins. It is an effective distraction from tarrifs. But no, they aren't "delighted". It is outside thier emotional range.
