Sleepwalking Into Revenge: The Rise of the Politics of Retribution

For decades, Democrats have abided by norms Republicans systematically discarded. They have no choice now but to fight back with all the resources they can marshal.

I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this.
But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

Agreed but...

What if we end up with more Alitos, Thomases, Kavanaughs, etc?

Canada, a country that pedophile-Trump hates, has free universal healthcare for its citizens.

It’s amazing how so many Trump supporters who have never left the United States know so much about the day to day life and culture of people in countries all over the world.

Agreed --- with one exception.

Trump has irrevocably destroyed what the White House represented. That can never be 100% restored.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

I watched the RR video. The Canadian ad accurately quotes him and doesn't miscontextualize his words.

Pedo-Trump, however, is not one to trouble himself with triflings such as historical FACTS.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

Two best friends, best friends for years and years, part ways.

One stands still, seething with immature anger, rage, and rancour.

The other moves on, quietly, unassumedly, with fixed determination & cautious optimism.

They may meet again here & there, but it will never be the same as it once was.

Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

The wealth of the richest 1% in America just hit a record $52 trillion. These are the people getting huge tax cuts — paid for by cuts to health care for millions of Americans. Every lie Trump and Republicans are telling right now about the shutdown is meant to distract you from this.
