I think Americans have to understand things won't go back to normal and no one is coming to save us. The self destructive decision to vote for Trump is going to cause long term pain, damage and weakness. We have to survive and try to rebuild something better. Generational effort sadly.

The world vs Russia and its puppet, Trump.
Elections have consequences. The entire remaking of a post WW2 order. US will be loathed and alienated.
This kinda shit is infuriating. Where was the compassion from the Republicans when ONE MILLION people (including THEIR OWN loved ones) died from Covid due to Trump’s mishandling of a MAJOR fucking pandemic???
Why are the Dems not cutting ads everywhere on all of Trump’s broken campaign promises (lowering groceries on day one, ending the Ukraine-Russia war in 24 hours, etc.)???
Repetition is key and they STILL have not grasped that concept..
Anyone who tells you you're overreacting is underreacting.
What drives me crazy about the anti-DEI rhetoric is everyone wants to be judged on merit. But you can't be judged on merit if you can't even get in the door because you don't fit some prejudiced definition of who is capable and who isn't
I really hate news paywalls. HATE. Idc if it was 0.50.
That’s what these idiots don’t understand!!! All of these “savings” that DOGE is finding is literally going into the pockets of Musk. It’s not like they’re going to reallocate those funds to other agencies.
I hate living amongst these people.
Which makes no sense because they’re so concerned with decreasing costs as they’re actively increasing costs by making more and more people reliant upon unemployment benefits.
lol this party will never be a serious governing party again
A trifecta.
We should be writing Project 2029—defining the society we want, clearly and publicly.
Let’s start today.
This whole country wants bad things for others more than they want good things for themselves.

@karaswisher.bsky.social is it odd that he’s over 50 and still behaves in this manner? The richest, biggest petulant child I’ve ever seen…
GOP reps love your vote, but not your voice. They’re dodging town halls faster than Trump dodged the draft. Demand answers!

I would argue that it’s more so the latter than the former. People willing to vote against their interests if it means those they deem as “other” are going to hurt the same, if not worse than them.
And that's on top of preexisting prejudices towards outgroups that make people more vulnerable to that type of manipulation.
I'm stepping on the theme of Chris' book here but, we have an extremely toxic information environment controlled by wealthy oligarchs who have aligned themselves with Trump, the whole point is to manipulate people into making poor decisions. bsky.app/profile/chri...
The wealthy commit fraud WAY MORE than the rest of us do. They also serve WAY LESS time in prison.
What’s worse than people dying?

Make American Tragedy Great Again!
His policies already are doing severe damage 2 months in, so…

A picture is worth a thousand words. Leadership versus shit.
By all means don’t listen to the voters
