Donald Trump has ordered the 2000 national guard troops be sent to California in response to protests against ICE agents raiding local businesses. This stemmed from a standoff between ICE agents and protesters at aHome Depot
Many are saying that Donald Trump has crossed the line with sending 2000 National Guard troops. There is no line. In Trump‘s first administration, he had guard rails. Those guard rails are gone, this time around, and any lines are also gone. In the first administration, he wanted to shoot protesters in the kneecaps. This time he might get his opportunity to do so.
There is no line. CNN last night showed a performance of “Good Luck and Good Night”. It is the story of Edward R. Murrow, an American broadcast journalist in the 1950s, broadcasting against McCarthyism. Well here we are in the 2020s and now, news networks are fighting for their lives against Trumpism. He will not stop until he has defeated the free press. Look at the associated press. They have been banned from news conferences because they refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of Mexico instead of the Gulf of America
Look at Trump and tariffs. One day he decides to levy a 140% tariff rate on China. A few days later, he decides to lower to 80%.
Look at Trump and Ukraine. He promised the end of the war in his first day. Now he’s saying let them fight it out while Putin continues to bash Ukraine.
Trump has no line he doesn’t give a flying f#%k. He has gotten his way all his life, a pampered little baby that he is. Even Elon Musk, the richest person in the world is starting to back down from his fight with Trump.
What makes it worse right now is that America has no backbone to fight this off. If my parents were alive today, having gone through World War II, they would see history, repeating itself with Hitler and Nazi Germany.
I’m simply disgusted.
