A lot of people think that. I watch and read the same news as you and everyone else, and didn’t see a single sign that they had any interest in capitulating. Liberals need to realize that Republicans CANNOT capitulate. Neither Trump or Maga can or will allow it. I don’t know what else has to happen to make people realize that. They are now more cult than a party, and expecting them to be decent, rational, or responsive to constituents feels naive in the extreme. View quoted note →

For the life of me I still cannot understand why anybody thinks these Republicans would have not watched the entire country burn before they’d concede. They keep telling everyone they don’t care who hurts, and they don’t think it will hurt them to keep hurting. So what possible leverage comes from hurting millions THAT THEY WANTED TO HURT? I have yet to hear a convincing answer to that. Just a lot of contempt for those who decided what none of us had to decide. I’ve yet to see a single …

Nothing annoys me more than having Tim Kaine get his way on anything. But I won’t let that take precedence over those I’ve spoken to for weeks who have not moved their bowels due to the political terrorism threatening them. MAGA will never be defeated by just pounding the table.

Spoke to teens at our #noKings rally. Told a depressing tale of high school friends intimidated by roving Trump mobs “every day.” They harass, intimidate, and disparage anyone expressing “woke” or “anti- Trump” views. Hitler youth at its finest.

This MAGA cult of incels and morons is a danger to the Enlightenment, if not all living things. We need to stop being polite. We need to stop being gentle. We need to get really angry. And soon. Trump Moves to Cancel a Giant Solar Project

An Immense Solar Project Just Got Canceled Under Trump

Known as Esmeralda 7, the project planned in the Nevada desert would have produced enough energy to power nearly two million homes.

Sorry, her handle was dropped from my post. She’s a really interesting follow because she sees no reason to be polite in the face of this MAGA moral catastrophe we find ourselves living in. That gets my respect. Handle:
