The “Where are the protests?” lament after Trump’s inauguration was always based on a (willful) misperception – a myth propagated by a punditry vying for relevance, hellbent on presenting grandiose reckonings and sweeping narratives rather than careful empirical assessments.
Overall, we have tallied 4x more protests through Jan 31, 2026 than we had through Jan 31, 2018

at some point you all will realize that fascists always have contradictory worldviews that don’t hold up to logical scrutiny, and that this is pretty irrelevant because you can’t convince them with logical consistency and the logical inconsistency is not a bug but a feature to protect from arguments
Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.
