It's really evil to spend billions of dollars on campaigns to prevent benefits like housing, food, transportation and health care to American citizens. You could just solve all those problems with money, and then they would be a non-issue. Nope, America is all about withholding and judgmentalism, loving capitalism at the expense of the people.
He hardscrabble right wing people who don't like Trump any more, aren't flocking to Democrats because they get anxious with unreliable caregivers, and would rather they didn't try to do things. A third of the people would be happy with minimalist government.
Democrats want it to be a special hate crime to kill people because of gender, color, sexuality or culture. Republicans want to make killing corporate executives a special hate crime.
Massie was no darling of the left, but he stood up to Trump's wrongness, and he paid the price. Ed Gallrein is a bought and sold by Israel. I think Republicans see that as a virtue. The more of a sellout, the more you milk others, the smarter and more real world you are to subvert the liberal democracy. Until he votes against something they cherish, and then, well, the abstract idea that they're conservative is enough to put on rose colored glasses.
I hope Republicans are paying for Trump for decades to come, but somehow our memory is short. Still not forgetting the pedophilia and grift of Trump, but I'm sure it will fade from many's consciousness. He's secretly trying to build up a network of prison crematoriums, but it's not Jews this time, it's just non-white people from other countries.
Meanwhile Israel is defending itself to the point of genocide--they don't care, want you to know they don't care, and arrest people in their country for speaking out about genocide. First the threat of Gaza was completely erased, and then the threat of Lebanon is being completely erased. On the one hand, they don't have to tolerate bombs going off all the time because of indulgent liberal thinking. On the other hand, they're just like Nazi Germany that tried to exterminate them, they've just become the exterminators. Israel doesn't want the US to negotiate peace with Iran, they want to eliminate it as a threat.
Meanwhile Iran pretty much won the war in terms of America, because blocading the Straits of Hormuz has really been a pretty good move by them. Any peace settlement is a step back for America from the one Obama negotiated, and you can imagine Trump's rants about Obama are a tacit admission of that. He's completely bungled it. It's a good war for Israel, but not for the USA. America is doing Israel's bidding. Not a good look for a diminished and waning power. Trump will forever be associated with America's decline.
Meanwhile Rubio, the ill fitting shoe wearer, who wears shoes that don't fit because Trump gave them to him, is increasing his negative rhetoric about Cuba. It might be easier to get a regime change there, so they're demonizing the country, against all common sense. The success in Venezuela whet Trump's appetite, and he wants more. Blew up in his face with Iran, but nevermind, he can still profit by manipulating the market with his grifts and other illegal stuff, in an America that somehow has come to tolerate his criminality.
He won't quite ruin the World Cup, but he'll come close. It's hard to tell if reports that ticket sales aren't good, and tourism is down are just hating Trump or accurate. I think they are accurate, but not in the political way they're intending to be, and another issue to hate Trump isn't going to impede his gish gallop of minor atrocities. These big events don't bring in as much money as people want because you have to build infrastructure. It's just plain stupid to kill tourism, but Trump is a bull in a china shop, and does what he does.
He's trying to rig the midterms, and I want the voting machines he's against. Everything he does has a kind of book banning effect--it should ultimately increase sales, not decrease them. He tries not to tip his hand because he knows there are hordes waiting to wreck all his dastardly schemes. California has committed to taxing any settlement from his slush fund 100%. Saying that that is illegal is wildly funny, because the slush fund is illegal and being opposed in many ways. It's hard to know how it's all going to shake out, and that ambiguity hopefully upsets him. He knows he's doing wrong and when he's stopped he probably just adds people to his retribution list. Weaponizing the justice department against Jean E. Carol is one really sick thing in his tinpot authoritarianism.
Trump has exploited America like some unwilling underage sexual exploitation, but hopefully America grows up and doesn't allow such violations. I really like all the people fighting back and fighting against him. I can't sing their praises enough.
They're calling James Talarico a "vegan" and "transgender" in Texas, when his real crime is being left wing, and calling out all the right wing hypocrisy.
