It is… "fascinating" (for lack of a better word) how much of #DonTheCon's policies AND popular support is drawn from #racism.

Think of all the #DayOne promises he made & failed to achieve: Bring prices down, end the war in #Ukraine, retrieve the hostages in #Gaza… etc & so on.

"Round up gang members & terrorists and #deport them" became: going after the low-hanging fruit of UNAdjudicated migrants already in jail & foreign-born protesters on college campuses.

AND THEY DON'T CARE.

It suddenly struck me yesterday that it appears #MafiaDon has suddenly given up on his dream of winning a #NobelPeacePrize.

He said he could/would end the war in #Ukraine on #DayOne only to discover #Putin isn't interested in doing so.

Ditto for #Gaza & #Bibi.

Now he invites a South American dictator into the Oval for a photo-op, and (with a smile) wonders aloud about tossing AMERICAN CITIZENS into foreign torture prisons w/o benefit of #DueProcess.

"It's easier to get forgiveness than permission." - Anonymous

It's the credo by which all #Republican politicians live by. From #SCotUS nominees lying about #Roe being "settled law" just to get onto the Court (then ending it as soon as they got on) to #DonTheCon telling his gullible #cult he'd "end #inflation and bring down prices on #DayOne (thx to his magical #tariffs). He didn't.

Here's a short collage of Candidate T**** promising to bring down prices "on #DayOne." (:34) #SuckersAndLosers 🤦‍♂️

#MafiaDon installed a #SCotUS that has given him Carte Blanc to commit crimes with immunity, and he's taking full advantage of it.

He said he'd "Only be a #dictator on #DayOne" (as if being a dictator is something any non-#Fascist Potus would EVER think to say as a positive), but (as I predicted) once he gave himself that power, "He'll never give it up." #TheLongestDay #DisasterPresidency #DictatorDon #OrangeHitler
