Someone on TikTok had a great point: Hitler was able to consolidate power and kill millions because the German people overwhelmingly supported him.
Trump doesn’t have that kind of support among Americans. A majority oppose MAGA and millions of activists are derailing his plans.
Keep fighting!

Putin puppet Chump is weakening the United States by breaking our bonds with our longstanding allies.
The goal is to destroy NATO. But that won’t happen.
NATO will stand strong against the United States, which will plummet into the abyss that Putin created.
