I can't like this post enough.

When Congresspeople become faced with the choice, in the not so distant future, of the death threats of their constituents for not supporting Trump, and the angry town halls because of supporting Trump's policies which consequently hurt them, it's going to be an interesting crossroads.

The modern GOP was defined by Reagan at the Berlin Wall. It is now defined by supporting a dictator invading a European nation. This is the Republican Party’s legacy.

This is ok. I totes remember when Obama did the very same thing and the folks on the right, and Fox "news" nary said a word about it.

Schoolhouse Rock never misses-even in my 50's... "But when the colonies complained, the King said "I don't care!" #king #Trump #Democracy www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvOZ...

To paraphrase Franklin: "A monarchy. If he can keep it." #trump #king #monarchy #democracy

Correct. As I've said all along, electing Trump will lead to a cascade of horrifying geopolitical outcomes. -Ukraine will fall -We will almost certainly abandon NATO -Russia will attempt another "misadventure" with another country therickwilson.substack.com/p/trump-join...

Sometimes, "Move fast, break things," just results in a lot of broken things.

The very definition of "posted without comment."

The only "negotiation" in Ukraine should be: "Russia started a war of aggression on a sovereign European nation that we swore to protect in the Budapest Memorandum. It will end when they leave, and pay for their atrocities."

I was braced for things to be bad, I just wasn't prepared for the stupidity of an Elon Musk extinction-level-for-democracy event
