Trump has a God complex. “Only I can fix it.” This drives him to do the opposite of his predecessors: embracing Russia over Europe, South African whites over equitable treatment of all, something unknown over Obamacare. Name it: if another President did it, Trump opposes. Only he is right.

“First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists… Then they came for the Jews... Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.” Don’t let us become Nazi Germany. Stand up. Support Trans rights now.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau literally exists to protect consumers from predatory financial institutions. It's returned over $21 billion to 205 million consumers. The sole result of this move is that Americans will have no recourse when they get screwed over by a bank. Good work Elon 👍

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
