I've given up on any kind of political fight.
Congress allows Trump to get away with anything he wants.
Reporters don't fight back when he calls them "piggy" or "stupid".
The big orange bastard is already trying to get re-elected despite the Constitution. That means he won't go peacefully.

I have stomach pain once a week due to one of my medications and, unfortunately, it lasts 36-48 hours. I'm trying CBD gummies because I've had some with THC that helped the pain, but I hated the "high".

Trump granted a second pardon to this guy for GUN CHARGES that were stemming from a separate incident from the January 6th insurrection.
Trump is giving his loyalists a free pass for criminal actions.

Her career should have ended the minute she started kissing Trump's ass after all the nasty, misogynist comments he made about her.
The right-wing host didn’t view Epstein as an “actual pedophile” until after Pam Bondi announced that he had thousands of videos involving child sexual abuse.

Trump is listed as a guest BUT according to multiple news reports from 2017, he was at a U.S. Coast Guard station handing out meals to service personnel, holding teleconferences with troops in Iraq, Afghanistan, and various other deployments. Also at Mar-A-Lago w/ family.

Notice the American Dream, according to Trump's officials, comes from a time of racial segregation and doesn't involve Brown or Black people. Also a time when women were under their husband's thumb. Women couldn't even apply for their own checking account.
Young Americans have had the American Dream stolen from them, as jobs have been replaced by foreign workers due to rampant abuse of the H-1B visa.

Under President Trump’s leadership, we’re holding companies accountable for their abuse—and recapturing the American Dream for the AMERICAN PEOPLE.
