I’ve had a couple of MAGA voters reach out to me on twitter and express concern over their vote. That’s the only reason I stay on that hellscape - anyone who follows me there will see that most of my time is spent engaging with the MAGA folks who flood my mentions.

Once we’re done with Trump, I think we have a chance to return to normal… ish.
There’s nobody else in the GOP that has his magnetism - they’ve turned their entire identity into kissing Trump’s ass. Their voters don’t show up when he’s not on the ballot.
We just have to survive this term first.

Congress has passed zero legislation to make this happen. None. Zip. People signing on that line are gambling everything based on Donald Trump's word. No, that's not a joke. They are gambling on Donald Trump's word.

*I know it won’t go anywhere. THAT’S NOT THE POINT.
The point is to document, immediately and in real time, constitutional transgressions and abuse of power.
Immediacy matters: Had Merrick Garland, for ex, appointed a SC on Day 1 to review everything Trump did, things could be different now

If they last for any appreciable amount of time, it’s going to be bad. Canada and Mexico have both vowed retaliatory tariffs, too - and I can’t imagine China is going to NOT respond.
He’s also threatening EU tariffs which is absolutely insane.

Take mental health breaks as you need to, but also remember this:
They want you to feel this way. They want you to feel like whatever you do, it won’t matter.
Fuck them. Don’t give them that power. Take all the sanity breaks you need, just make sure you’re back in time to vote.

In all honesty, if I thought they were preparing - or even able - to rig the elections, I would be screaming it from the rooftops.
They wouldn’t spend so much time trying to suppress the vote if they could just change it.
We outnumber them by a lot. We just have to show up.

We should be focusing our energy on preparing for state and local elections. We should also be preparing for the midterms (yes, they’re going to happen) and working to explain to the average voter how destructive these Trump policies are.
That’ll be easier in the coming months, I fear.

He looks like a toddler who just got his favorite toy taken away. Newsom also made him look like an infant.
Oh, I bet he was furious re: those planes. Mean tweets and tariff threats incoming.
