We had no access to testing yet. The ambulance driver that came for me said, "unless your arm is falling off your body I wouldnt recommend you go to the hospital" he had over 22 hr waits in parking lot for his patients to get in. Said I was stable enough to endure at home I'll never forgive Rs.

What radicalized me was sitting in a Vegas hotel room, the 3rd week in feb, watching them disembark the cruise ship in Japan. They were full hazmat gear. Im wondering why am I @ convention. I ended up w covid & have never been the same. But 45 told us it was safe then, HE knew it was deadly.

Did they though? Or did they just always believe in giving power to themselves & taking it away from dems. You were played. They made you feel righteous. All the while, this has always been the plan. Do you really think the idiot was smart enough to unwind democracy? The board was set long ago

How privileged does one have to be, hiding in their safe space, to be triggered by the phrase food insecurity? None of of us, will ever be good enough for them. He can't even focus on the crisis of the moment in his own party, without somehow blaming dems. Wrote that guy off years ago.

When you zoom out you'll see its not so much about race as it is about one side that can easily marginalize people. If they can see people of one color has less value, nothing stops them from seeing any of us as less valuable. They see other humans as a commodity or a liability.

But today proved without a doubt its not dementia. He's stupid, sure, but the speed with which he picked this up & in his head made the connection to 2028 shows he doesn't have dementia. He even knows how the press will take it. He wants for himself, nothing else matters. bsky.app/profile/theb...

Its also proof that he doesn't have dementia like so many keep saying. He may well be an idiot, but he understood that moment completely and even reframed it to his own election in 2028 (which is unconstitutional)

He doesn't have dementia full stop. He picked that up, amplified it, spelled it out, even defined it within HIS term of 3 1/2 years. If at war, no elections. He knows. He wanted the press to highlight that moment. He has every intention to use that moment. He's vile & stupid but its not dementia
Linda D (@lindad.bsky.social) reply parent
When he uses that many words it doesn't mean anything. He's bullshitting. "We'll be involved" means he'll pressure other countries to succumb to his impulses at that moment. He won't provide any security for a country against his buddy P.

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Its who he's always been. I find it hard to believe the "greatest" democracy in the world can't hold him accountable. The country formed out of rebellion to a monarch, designed to prevent an authoritarian, was just basically smoke and mirrors.
