This. Regular voters took the "nothing ever happens" mantra to heart, but also thought presidents controlled the price of eggs.

The one very very slight silver lining to all this is that people are learning quickly that yes, elections do matter when you elect fascists.
I think a lot of people thought things would basically be the same no matter who won. That view was stupid and naive but here we are.

Musk amplifying the lie that we spent $50 million on condoms for Gaza makes him…a rubber baron.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"
