🇺🇸🗽 Americans were already changed when they elected Trump. ☝️🫤 His voters mistakenly believed that smart diplomacy could be defeated. ‼️👺 Trump has proven that a fool with a gun is just a fool, a fool with a gun. ‼️🇺🇸 Republicans! ‼️🗽 You are not fools - remove Trump before it's too late.

Thank you for coming right out and saying it. Yes, we are already there. So many posts I’ve seen write as if elections will remedy everything, when it is crystal clear upcoming elections will NOT be business as usual. Because we are already living in a fascist run country.

Rachel Maddow has been one of the loudest voices warning us for years of Trump's intent. And still America chose Trump. Plato and Aristotle thought democracy a poor way of ruling by many. The founding fathers understood this and set up checks and balances, but even these have failed.
