Newly-released documents show that Trump has not just been trying to deport people - but trying to erase entire family units from the US

Yep, this is starting to sound a whole lot like ethnic cleansing, which is not surprising in the least 🫠

Call it what it is: genocide. "Ethnic cleansing" was a weasel word definition to let the Clinton admin wriggle out of intervening in Rwanda.

Fair point. It is genocide, just a (for now) not overtly bloody one, but it’s not much less brutal for that.

I understand DJT very well, but his methods are too extreme

Things like this have a way of coming back to bite. Its basically forced diaspora. So the people who do the labor are sent to countries where they basically look different. Like a Puerto Rican sent to South Africa. There, in south Africa, maybe by chance this person looks sexy to a local. They get married, have kids...yada yada yada, democracy happens around the glove. Its real painful in between now and then, but migrants have a resilient heart. Let's hope things do go well for those in the diaspora.

Their last image of our collapsing Democracy will be us giving them the finger on the way out, I'm not sure they're going to be spreading the gospel. But one can hope the ideals were impressed on enough minds.

This is what you voted for protest-non-voters.

Let’s be real, it’s what his actual voters voted for too

By and large Trump voters know what they voted for. Protest-non-voters apparently need to be informed what they actually voted for.

30% of the American population didn't vote.

technically, trump only received 40% of all votes.

he won via technicality. we lost because of blind petty bullshit.
