This is a March 2020 moment and the virus is named Donald Trump

I don’t do this often and promise not to make a habit of it, but just this once: WE TRIED TO WARN YOU!!!!!

Trump is driving the world to a global depression -and destruction of all US influence - using powers delegated to him by Congress. Congress could recall those powers and save everyone from the disaster Trump is determined to inflict

The speech Trump is giving right now is straight madness. The victimhood complex is on prime display, and that's when he's not reading a fascist diatribe off the teleprompter.

Because it's Trump, his tariff policy is even worse than I imagined.

Nurse, the patient in room 1600 skipped his meds again.

Trump has just decided to punch himself and America in the face and then declared he knocked out his enemies and is the champion. This is the equivalent of his absolutely reckless and destructive tariffs policy.

Donald Trump is a lot of things. But the thing he will always be most is just plain fucking dumb.

A shockingly straightforward headline from CNN: www.cnn.com/business/liv...

Gonna be a bloodbath on Wall Street tomorrow. Rich people who supported Trump love money more than fascism. Alas.

Can someone tell Republicans that their corporate donors prefer hiring outsourced cheap labor in foreign countries and refuse to pay decent wages in America and is partly why we "make" stuff abroad and Trump has just made everything more expensive now with his tariffs?

Fight U.S. tariffs. Protect workers. Build a stronger economy.

turning a big dial taht says "Tariffs" on it and constantly looking back at the stock market for approval like a contestant on the price is right

Barely more than one-tenth of 1 per cent of fentanyl seizures at the northern border have been positively attributed to Canada by the United States border agency, according to new data released to The Globe and Mail. tgam.ca/4jefk86

One way to think of what’s going on is that Trump & his gang are trust fund kids spending down the reservoir of U.S. power & influence without understanding or caring where the balance in that account came from. They treat it as just a fact of nature that there will always plenty there.

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969. One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.

Republican appointees have served as Chief Justices of the Supreme Court my entire life. I have never lived in a world in which a Democratic appointee led the Court. This is one hell of a long con.

Day 5 - it’s 14C in the house this morning. Hope the sun warms it some.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Trump’s tariffs aren’t founded in anything other than his own grievances and ignorance. His goals of revenue generation, reshoring and an international reset are incompatible with each other. And he’ll do lots of economic damage along the way. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

I'm seeing a lot of cynical reactions to this move from Cory Booker. And I get it!! But performative opposition is a necessary part of effective opposition from the minority. Not sufficient, but necessary. And our electeds need to know we notice when they do well and not just when they do poorly.

Sen. Cory Booker has taken the Senate floor and announced he’s holding it until he’s no longer physically able as a protest against Trump. It’s probably the best idea any Senate Democrat has had in months. Love it.

Love that they are now openly promising to make everyone’s life worse

The media continues to utterly fail us. The headline should only be the following: “Trump suggests he’ll try to violate the Constitution and run for a third term.”

Broken limbs removed. And now we wait to see if it will live.

Not complaining. The utility companies are working hard. We’re safe and reasonably comfortable. And it’ll be a while before power is restored. #ElbowsUp Ontario Strong

Day 3 with no power.

Canadians are the top foreign buyers of US properties. But as trade tensions grow, some of Canada's snowbirds are reconsidering their lives in America: cnn.it/3QUZljj
