Trump campaigned on fighting for the working class, and exit polls found that he won 56% of the blue-collar vote.
One hundred days in, the self-styled champion of the working class has delivered layoffs, trade wars and an erosion of worker protections.

I am truly amazed they are dumb enough to nominate Waltz for a Senate confirmed position. This guarantees public hearings of Signalgate.
They supported a man who said over and over that he planned on burning it all down, and they didn't believe him. They supported someone they were sure was lying to the public.
Those generals didn't care enough before the election to speak out. Why would they now?
“DOGE has already squandered half a trillion dollars… Not billion. Half a trillion, $500 billion… In other words, in about eight weeks DOGE managed to lose the U.S. government — more or less light on fire — more than half of what goes to all non-defense discretionary spending.” @joshtpm.bsky.social
Can't be any more dangerous than the average Texan on that route.
I see you bought the single serving size. 😃
The lesson of trump's first 100 days: If you don't fight like hell, you're not gonna have a country anymore.
Trump's first 100 days:
-Start a costly trade war.
-Fire thousands of food safety, medical, and weather experts.
-Let the world's richest man effectively cut Social Security.
-Bill taxpayers $26M for golf trips.
-Shred the Constitution.
So much winning. youtu.be/yxtrhzW1ZTs?...
Today we have three crises. They were created on purpose. And the people in power do not want to fix them—they want to use the crises to fundamentally alter the American system.
Good read
It’s a good show. And a very long show.
Yale, and many of the other Ivies, have a lot to answer for with this administration.
If there was something simple, like a shot, that could prevent this.
Cosplay is welcome at WOTCon or JordanCon but not so much at the Pentagon.
Saying "WTF?" is not the beginnings of negotiations.
Support Ukraine. Screw Russia
Since some in govt and the GOP seem to have forgotten how a war works, here’s a reminder.
For a defending nation to win, they just have to….. wait for it…. Keep on defending.
Ukraine is winner and Russia is destroying its youth
Basic math
Harvard and many of the other Ivies have a lot to answer for as so many of the people violating the constitution in this administration or cheering them on from Congress or business were educated in their schools. Something is clearly amiss in their educational approach.
“Trump spoke of asking Attorney General Pam Bondi to find legal ways to abduct Americans and leave them in foreign concentration camps. But by ‘legal’ what is meant are ways of escaping law, not applying it.”

From the Dragon Reborn on down, here's how all the channelers stack up against each other on Amazon's The Wheel of Time TV show.
Gavin can shelve his presidential ambitions right now. He doesn't get the idea that we need to fight on every front. If you can't do more than one thing at a time, you are not presidential material.
The political instincts of those who said the Abrego Garcia situation was a “distraction” aren’t great. And that also goes for the Trump-lovers who were mocking Dems for pressing the issue.
SCOTUS better start taking this shit show seriously.
WTF? Trust isn't required? Without some trust that the parties will abide by the terms, how do you ever believe negotiations will work?
And yet, when Trump blames Zelensky for the inevitable breakdown in negotiations, this idiot will be one of the first to back Trump's lies.
I don't believe anyone, regardless of nationality, comes out alive unless they have someone in their life able and willing to pay a ransom.
His lips were moving, enough said
