Considering he’s basically a 14 year old in man’s body this is not at all surprising.

Going to protests. Talking (yelling) with my friends and family about it. Donating to orgs that help marginalized people and others targeted by these fascists. Supporting independent journalists. Taking additional precautions to protect my privacy online. Closed my Meta and Twitter accounts. Making plans in case I need to shelter in place or evacuate my home. Giving every cybertruck I see the finger to remind them they’re not welcome. Stopped shopping at vendors that kissed Trumps ring. Avoiding travel to any Red states to deprive them of the tiniest bit of income.

Every little thing you can do matters but making people aware of this bullshit and organizing locally is the most important.

Everything Trump and Co are doing in DC and LA is just a trial run for Election Day in ‘26 and ‘28. They are 100% going to deploy armed forces to try and keep Trump/GOP in office and the country is just sleepwalking into this like voting is going to solve our problems.

All of these GOP tough guys are such fragile pathetic babies.

All of it is laughably wrong.

Other than “lower taxes” and “stop illegal immigration” conservative policies are largely unpopular. I put these in quotes because once you start to apply nuance to those policies they become less popular. Lower taxes for who? Middle America? No, for the 1%! Stop criminals from crossing the border? No, deport the farm workers and asylum seekers that prop up American society!

This is why conservatives resort to wedge issues, propaganda, and fear mongering to stir up their base. Nothing they actually do is popular. They manipulate people into voting against their own interest or just play on their own voter’s racism.

Personally, the fear-mongering about cities is fucking insane. I’ve been to a ton of cities and never not felt safe. Are there areas that you probably shouldn’t go to? Sure, but that’s been the case for all human history. Do you have to like cities? No, but don’t act like they’re a Wild West town where people get shot and robbed at a whim.
