Gavin Newsom: “What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren’t screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It’s all at stake. People need to wake up. We can’t continue to play by the old set of rules.“

For the record: They were talking about Trump, Putin, Orban and Netanyahu. All of Trump’s heroes.

He responded to her very sincere question with more blatant lies and partisan propaganda. Carefully engineered talking points. Zero sincerity. No empathy. All lies. Republicans can open the government today. They are keeping it closed to gut agencies.

Things could’ve been so different but Trump told a bunch of undereducated Americans stories about boys coming home from school as girls. Now, we’ve lost everything.

REALITY: Trump meant it when he said, “vote just one more time and you won’t ever have to vote again.” They have no intention of having another legitimate election. MAGAs don’t believe in democracy or a balance of powers. The United States is now an authoritarian dictatorship.

Donald has attacked & continues to compromise the foundations of our democracy. Joking about 'ruling' Congress is tantamount to joking about 'ruling' American people. And the American people do not want to be 'ruled' over. youtu.be/j8v9fP5YC6A
