Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

A vote for Donald Trump is a vote for school shootings and measles
Trump doesn’t care about any of this.

“There was no positive agenda, no optimistic picture for the country,” @jamellebouie.net writes. “Trump gave the American public a rant, centered on his wounded ego and his desire for revenge and retribution.”
“Far from showing strength, the Madison Square Garden rally showed that however vicious and virulent its leaders and supporters might be, the MAGA movement is a spent and exhausted force, even if it is not yet defeated.”

Consider the scale of the hypocrisy here: Musk entered the US as a migrant in the 90s and—to put it charitably—cleaned up his paperwork much later. American openness and prosperity enabled him to become the world’s richest man. Now he’s pouring that wealth into a retrograde mass deportation program.
