(1/X) People sometimes wonder how things got so crazy in this country. Well, look back at the '90s: for Clinton impeachment, you had Alan Dershowitz on Geraldo arguing against impeachment and Jon Turley arguing for it. All three of course became Trumpers.

Hey, so ICE is still kidnapping and disappearing people in the United States.

Just because they got quieter about it doesn't make it okay.

Abolish ICE. Chinga la Migra.

Acronyms are pronounced as words.
-scuba
-laser
-NASA

Initialisms are pronounced as individual letters.
-NFL
-TSA
-TGIF

'Acronym' is frequently used for both kinds of abbreviations, so it's ok to call an initialism an acronym.
