TRUMP 2.0 From nominations to its last day

Donald Trump is now (1) below 50% popular vote and (2) has a margin of popular vote victory roughly HALF of Hillary's victory in 2016. They believe the left has to lay down and shut up because of this "landslide" victory.

Don't lay down. Don't shut up. Keep whining.

Why do Trumpers want to abolish the Department of Education? Because it’s in charge of prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race and sex in schools that get federal funding, a policy Congress set in 1975 through the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

This is such a stupid take I came over here to talk about it. Almost no one is afraid of pregnancy. We are afraid of a medical system built to let us die, of being asked to take responsibility for tiny humans with zero outside support, and a professional sector that can ditch us at the drop of a hat

1/ In an administration that was on the up & up, a Defense Secy nominee who failed to disclose he'd paid a woman a settlement for sexual assault allegations & extracted a non-disclosure agreement in return would withdraw as soon as that came to light.

2/ But then again, in a legit admin, you wouldn't have an AG nominee who resigned from the House to prevent public release of an ethics report about trafficking a minor & illegal drug use. So, here we are.

It’s just not true that the “majority” of Americans voted for Trump. 93 million eligible Americans did not vote at all. That number dwarfs the 76.5 million vote total Trump currently holds.

The Middlemen Linking Migrants in the U.S. to Your Shopping Cart

The incoming Trump administration promises an immigration crackdown. But for years, the on-demand economy has been fueled by unscrupulous staffing agencies exploiting migrant workers.

Don’t buy into the illusion that Trump has a mandate to trample the rule of law or ignore the Constitution. He does not. Under 1/3 of eligible voters picked Trump. That is no mandate but a narrow victory.

[ Not even started the 2nd term.....]

The New York Times (@nytimes.com)

President-elect Trump has mused more than once that he might like to extend his next stay at the White House. But can he run for re-election again in 2028 and seek a third term? The simple answer: No, the Constitution does not allow it. Here’s what the law says...

At 4:03 AM Trump posts that he is prepared to use the military to round up migrants in a mass deportation effort after Mike Johnson, Tony Gonzales & other Republicans spent the weekend saying this was not the case.

His insane nominations... His promises to deploy the military on home soil... His threats to go after anyone who opposes him... Now, there are messages going out to specific communities threatening deportation and "re-education camps". It's by design. His objective is to fill you with fear ...

Has this not already been said? The reason the lawyer(s) for the women witnesses against Gaetz are pushing for release of the Ethics Report is bc he's going to retaliate against them if he becomes AG.

This is a proposed law targeting exactly one person: Incoming trans Congresswoman Sarah McBride of Delaware. Nancy Mace is a transphobic, hateful troll who voted with teen rapist Matt Gaetz to depose her own party’s speaker, but the bathrooms. That’s where she’s focused.
