Trump can’t stand to be humiliated. This is what's driving his dictatorial moves.
But he will overreach. He already has. And this overreach will ultimately be his undoing.
As long as we keep our heads — and engage in peaceful civil disobedience.

Can’t shake the thought that having all this matériel in DC and provoking anti-ICE riots in LA, Chicago, and gods-know-where would make a handy little setup for declaring martial law.
Meh, it’s probably nothing. 😬

NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade.
They departed Texas 5 days ago.
What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel.

He’s practicing eugenics. The strong don’t need vaccines, pasteurization, chemo, sunscreen. The weak succumb to infections & cancer; they need to die off. They want the sick, disabled & elderly to be eliminated. RFK Jr. is much like Mengele.
