If we went to war with Venezuela tomorrow, I'm sure that at least half the country would be completely, totally surprised.

There's a reason most administrations that want to take the nation to war spend a little bit of time, you know, trying to make a case for it?
Trump had found an issue more unpopular than his handling of inflation - attacking Venezuela:

Weird. Nothing on the @nytimes.com homepage about the President of the United States calling for the execution of members of the opposition in response to their political speech.
Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."
Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

This is a good line and the key point to be amplifying:
"What’s most telling is that the President considers it punishable by death for us to restate the law."
Keep shining a bright light on Trump's violent lawlessness.

Good. Dems not backing down in the slightest in the face of Trump's call for their execution. Keep this up, Dems. Treat Trump like *he's* the violent criminal and the real threat to our Constitution order. Because he is.

People talk about the Epstein files like a magic button that will either destroy trump if pushed or not harm him at all. I think the truth is that they've already hurt him and will continue to do so, even though they won't probably end his presidency. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/the-epstei...
