Trump is now giving a big Celebrate America's Truckers rally at the White House.

They are a BIG source of his support... and yes.. they should be honored... they are a very vital part of our country right now.. That being said? He is using them. SMH

Well, if all is being manifested according to the Divine Plan, that is some humongous shadow that the ? Idiot has played such a big part in!

Looking forward to the blessed day when that treacherous shadow is blown away with the light of a thousand suns, and sanity is restored... it will happen.

And a little humour noir is ok ...?

Masha Gessen knows how democracy dies.  She is Russian and now lives in the U.S. She explains how the pandemic is enabling dictatorships and emboldening Trump to become a totalitarian dictator.  

We won't know the exact moment when democracy dies.

@jeanne-mayell, I love Masha Gessen.  I was introduced to her via Rachael Maddow, shortly after T won the election.  Thank you for posting her article.  I think it's important to be fully cognizant of what we're  up against.  It does not mean we are powerless; we can change things, e.g. as you stated, going more state and local.   What's that saying -- it's better to deal with the devil you know than the devil you don't?  We the people hold tremendous power, if only we claim it.

What a low we have reached...Governor Cuomo has fired back at Trump's lies and insults via a Twitter war...which is exchanging insults and barbs and name calling....  https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2020/apr/17/coronavirus-us-live-trump-reopening-plan-states-governors-latest-updates

Praying for Cuomo.. I know he is exhausted and frustrated and heartbroken and angry.. as are we.

Trump seems to be unraveling even more than normal today, texting things like "LIBERATE MICHIGAN!" and other nonsense. I reported each and every tweet for incitement of violence or whatever fit best. 

I have no doubt this man is neurologically compromised. The incidents of jerks and spasms are increasing daily. We cannot endure much more of this madness.

I don't think he's mentally compromised.  He's just a monster, and he reveals himself more and more every day.  What would any of us to if we had the power and thought we could get away with it?  Well, we know with him. No bottom. Every time I think, this is it, he can't go lower than this, he does. It's like he's got a vile behavior lab in his head, constantly cooking up new ways to shock us. I gotta say I didn't see the inciting violence thing coming. Who knows what will come next, but it will come, tomorrow, and then something new disgusting low after that.

Upside is his poll numbers are back down. The dems seem united. I'm optimistic that he'll be gone by Jan. 2021, but he will leave a so much wreckage in his wake, and A LOT of angry trumpers who will give the next administration the hardest of times. Obama admin circa 2009 on steroids.

@journeywithme2  I watched Gov. Cuomo's COVID livestream this morning, as I do every morning. He responded reasonably, calmly, truthfully, and accurately to DJT's tweet in real time, on the livestream.

Yes... Governor Cuomo is a extraordinary man. A true leader that I admire.. he fights for his people. Trump wishes he could be half the man that Cuomo is.
