Floating the idea of a 3rd term is just Trump's way of winding up what MAGA folks like to call "the libtards." The real damage is what he can do in the next 3.6 years when he never has to face the electorate again. Don't expect the Repubs to stop him.

“We’re a merit-based country again,” said the convicted felon whose military is run by a guy who mistakenly gave detailed attack plans to a reporter before the operation occurred.

What do you think the mothers and fathers of the young men and women whose lives he’s been entrusted with were thinking?

Is “sidestepping laws” the same thing as committing crimes? Seems like it is, right?

Am I crazy or did we just have a convo about how we can't fund cancer research?

Agree with this. The US starts out w a lot going in its favor. Location, scale, resources, etc But of the ways the US has *made* its success (as opposed to lucking into it), these 3 rank very high. All connected by university system. A saboteur could not do more than Trump + servile GOP are doing

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.
