The Trump administration is claiming powers in both domestic and foreign affairs that vastly exceed those of prior presidents. He bases his claim on his unprecedented “mandate” in which he did not get even a majority of the votes. His popular vote victory margin was less than Hillary Clinton’s margin in her Electoral College loss to Trump in 2016. But facts mean little to Trump and his followers.
It’s 100% fascist rule, pure and simple.
We have a handful of national politicians who are trying to resist while the vast majority of them are simply playing along to preserve their own status and power. Democrat/Republican haven’t meant anything substantial for a while now–you have to look at who’s paying them (via ‘donations’ or otherwise) to know.
We can hope that they start killing each other (which they’d do if they had any backbone). Otherwise, our options are both extreme and extremely limited.
There’s the targeted message of the month!
