Trump is not just an "ordinary bad president"; he has breached three bottom lines simultaneously: the rule of law, democratic norms, and the facts themselves.

This is no longer a "compromise," it's collusion. Voting in favor of this funding bill is tantamount to prolonging the life of the authoritarian machine. Using "avoiding a shutdown" as an excuse is simply pushing the country step by step into despotism.

The only mistake she made was entering the country illegally, which may constitute a violation under immigration law, but that does not mean she gave up her basic human rights.

Supporting the abolition of ICE is not an emotional reaction, but a self-preservation of the democratic system. An institution that routinely violates human rights and uses ethnic appearance as a basis for suspicion will eventually backfire on society if it is not dismantled and rebuilt.

When a police chief says people are being stopped without cause, and every single target is a person of color, this is not border security—it is racism and a violation of civil rights. This is not law enforcement.

You're right. What we're seeing isn't strength, but arrogance, instability, and showmanship. When a leader can't articulate their views clearly, contradicts themselves daily, and turns serious policies into a reality show, that's not "leadership charisma," it's dysfunction.
