I’m sure everyone hurt by Trump’s policies would like a government bailout, but apparently those only go to farmers who can’t sell their products to other countries.

It is really, really hard to get your head around the raw hubris of the majority. They really will be destabilizing the operating structure of the entire U.S. government. Why? Because they believe they have a better idea about how the past century should've been done.

Finding a way to make people “other” and using that to instill fear and control.
That has been the cycle throughout history.
Those without substance or the ability to lead have no other tools.
It will continue as long as we allow it.
We have to stay vigilant.

"I'm sorry, sir, we were hoping to get an informed opinion. For that we will go to Congressman Raskin. . ."
Republicans use the "I'm not familiar with that" dodge several times a day now, and if a reporters or anchor isn't ready and willing to shut them down as soon as they try it, that means they're either incompetent at their job or a willing accomplice to the lies.
Either way, never trust them again.
Either way, never trust them again.
If they pretend they haven’t heard about the story of the day, end the interview right there.

When I taught Civics, I used Supreme Court cases to trace our expansion of rights to demonstrate democratic values.
If I were still teaching Civics today, I would need to place the concepts of 'precedent,' 'stare decisis,' and 'rule of law' in the trash bin.
This SCOTUS is corrupt.
