He doesn't give a s***, he's got bucks, he'll survive, but he could not care less about the USA. He'd burn it all down just to make a few bucks or try to salvage his reputation. The worst s*** show in the history of the United States of America.

Trade agreements with Trump are worthless. Meaningless. If he hits a bad golf shot he will jump in his cart, grab his phone, and fire off a post revoking one, or changing one. It looks like that may finally be starting to sink in, although China seems to have known it all along.

While we throw up barriers and initiate trade wars and unnecessary diplomatic crises around the world, other countries and trading blocs continue to strengthen ties to hedge against an unreliable US partner. This is generational self-inflicted long-term damage.

Donald Trump promised to lower prices on Day One — but a year later, all he's done is jack up electricity bills and slash thousands of good jobs.
Warren, Markey say Trump’s policies cost state $8.6 billion in clean energy funding and more than 16,000 jobs - The Boston Globe
A report from Senator Elizabeth Warren’s and Senator Ed Markey’s offices, released Tuesday, shows the state ranks second in lost or delayed clean energy jobs and first in lost or delayed investments.

Republicans have ceded their constitutional authority over tariffs to Trump voluntarily. They could have ended it at any time. They could end it now. Trump is not on the ballot this Nov, but they are. The only way to stop this daily tariff drama and insanity is to vote them out.

Trump has transformed the justice system into a Putin-style autocratic protection racket. The wealthy are not audited or investigated, if convicted they are pardoned. Political opponents are targeted. Unidentified masked agents grab people off the street, and protesters are shot.

Two white friends tail me home if it's outside the hours when people are out and about. I'm damn near third generation Minnesotan. It's not just "you're a citizen you'll be fine." I'm a black woman alone. Who knows what they will do.
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.
