For years, Donald Trump has leaned on all-caps social media posts to grab attention online.
His Truth Social feed often reads like a never-ending shouting match. However, that changed after Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) began mocking the president’s style in dozens of posts interspersed among his regular missives.
This has been going on for the better part of a week, and seems to have gotten to Trump’s ego, as his latest Truth Social posts aren’t in his classic all-caps style.
“You can always trust Americans to do the right thing, after they have exhausted all other options.”
We need actual like, American rebuilding from the ground up change. But for that to happen we need actual, America is completely broken and people are going hungry. Until that time we will keep going back and forth between “normal” and fascist, with the “normal” slowly creeping towards fascism anyways.
So we will probably go back and forth a few more times because Donald Trump will die happily of old age soon, and Democrats will claim a quiet victory and pretend nothing bad ever happened. Reverse a couple meaningless law changes. Keep the rest. And then be shocked when the new Donald Trump takes the reins.
We won’t ever as a country look ahead and be like “ah yes, that is the correct course of action. It’s okay to lose some profits now because the long term prosperity of the nation is what’s important.” We always try the easy but wrong path first.
I’m worried about the possibility of more violent ends, but in reality I think you’re dead on the money. After the orange turd kicks the bucket we are going to waffle back over to “normal” where we are only getting fucked over quietly, rather than right in our face.
