trump dines on nothing but kfc, mcdonald’s, and diet-coke — why does he give these ppl the time of day? what’s the constituency he’s trying to buy? how does it pay off for him?

Trans men’s insight on this is so fucking valuable in understanding the nuances of what’s going on with men. We need to be amplifying them, and hopefully cis men can realize what is actually the source of their loneliness.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

The most dangerous legal doctrine right now is a "norm" the courts developed to presume good faith and regularity from presidents and their administrations. For the sake of democracy, the courts must stop presuming donald Trump is a regular president. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Most of the guys saying "it's a brutal time for young men, it's confusing" - are not young men - don't have kids, or - aren't close with their kids - are selling something It's pure projection. If you need help just say you're confused and ask for help. Go to therapy.

1/2 Those who have stood up and said HELL NO in court have won nearly all their cases, and in many have made Trump back down. (See also: China, vs Trump tariffs.) Those who surrendered in advance found Trump asking for more. (See also: Paul, Weiss; general history of appeasement.) /cont

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. First Trump illegally sent a child’s father to be imprisoned without trial or due process in El Salvador. Then ICE grabbed her mother to be deported to Venezuela. But despite the mom saying she wanted to leave with her daughter, ICE is keeping the baby!

He absolutely did vote for that. Trump made it loud and clear during the campaign that is what he intended to do. Voters need to take responsibility for the consequences of their actions.

The Constitution forbids bribery 3 separate times. So important to the Founders they included two emoluments clauses, and made it the only named impeachable offense besides treason. The Constitution is clear on banning bribery. It's just that Congress and the courts decided to pretend otherwise.

I’m still baffled at how America took one of the basic principles of the presidency — the occupant shouldn’t be able to benefit financially from the office — and just said, nah, that just doesn’t count for this one guy.

No “due process“, unless you count the hearings, trials and incarceration in an American prison after a guilty verdict by a jury of their peers.

Generations of poor kids were sold the idea that taking out a student loan was an investment on their future and one they couldn’t afford to pass. Now after multiple once-in-a-lifetime economic downturns and endless avocado toast pieces those same poor kids are being targeted for immiseration.

I posted this shortly after the election. Think about this theory and compare it to other theories of Trump's tariff "strategy." Take any other theory you want. Which has had better explanatory power for the results we're seeing?
