Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."
Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.
Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.
He doesn't actually believe it. He just believes Americans are stupid enough to believe him if he claims it. And sadly, he may be right. Apparently, you can't go wrong betting on stupidity. :-(
Pretty much

How about a rebrand? It's Alligator Auschwitz. Let's call it what it is.
Trump is up to something, he's been barricading the White House and US treasury overnight.
A Muslim son of immigrants might become mayor of NYC in part because he cross endorsed and supported a Jewish candidate and Black candidate, and vice versa.
It's a beautiful American story for the rest of us. A nightmare for all the right people ;)
It's so New York.
Complete truth!! 🔥🔥
Trump is starting World War 3.
Raise a glass to freedom something they can never take away, no matter what they say. Final count coming tomorrow morning.

Four dead in Ohio.
NEW: We obtained DHS data that shows the US knew only 32 of the 238 Venezuelans deported to a prison in El Salvador in March were convicted of US crimes, only 6 of those violent. Trump called them “savages,” “monsters” and "the worst of the worst.” www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'
We're finally on our own...

WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution?
TRUMP: I don't know
