Summary
Seventy days into his second term, Donald Trump faces growing internal turmoil and public backlash. Allies report he’s making late-night angry calls, upset over negative press and policy setbacks.
The “Signalgate” scandal and GOP resistance to new tariffs have shaken his administration. Trump blames National Security Adviser Mike Waltz for a messaging blunder and resents criticism of his deportation efforts.
His attempts to end wars in Gaza and Ukraine have faltered.
Republicans fear economic fallout from his trade policies, raising concerns about recession and inflation.
This is insane.
Even if this was actually what people wanted, how do you just roll over for fascism? What fucking bizarre outlook.
This isn’t tit for tat, left of center versus right of center boring politics. We’re not getting fair elections anymore, and it wouldn’t matter if 99% of the people voted their rights away, doesn’t mean I have to surrender mine peacefully
Do you only believe in a democracy if you agree with it?
If the majority vote is a suicide pact that they’re going to drag you into as well, do you just let it happen or do you fight?
Mind you, I’m not saying that Trump got in by any democratic process. It’s more the result of crime, propaganda and expoliting defects in an old, creaky system.
