Denigrate and Humiliate. Two of Donald Trump's favorites.

Let's make sure to put them on ICE!!

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

The U.S. has always supported 'dictators' in other countries if beneficial to the U.S.

The U.S. has for decades infiltrated the governments of other countries if deemed beneficial to the U.S.

Donald Trump is an awful 'president' and a wannabe Dictator.

But, the U.S. itself is not innocent.

I am heartbroken that this is what our country has become. I’m aware we are not what I grew up thinking we are, but we are now definitely an authoritarian monstrous regime!

Crimes against humanity are being committed at these “detention facilities “ aka concentration camps. We need to continue to raise this issue. Share it with your friends and family. They need to know the truth!

Trump's dementia is so bad that he does not remember that he was President on January 6, 2021 and watched the insurrectionists he invited to violence. President Trump watched his Proud Boys, Oathkeepers that he arranged to attack the Capitol Building to keep Congress from certifying electoral votes
