I tried to say this as many times as I could during the election: In 2016 Trump ran as a demagogue (an unaccountable leader) who would work within the system to effect the MAGA agenda. In 2024 Trump ran as a dictator (a totalitarian leader) who would destroy the system to effect the MAGA agenda.

2 of 3. A budget resolution that includes trillions of dollars in cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, and supplemental nutrition programs. This isn’t a victory for anyone, except Elon Musk. Doesn’t the media know people will die with a budget like this?
