@JessTheUnstill @Remittancegirl @Lana Yes, that is the inescapable conclusion. It seems to me that we have an opportunity to expose the corrupt, corrosive, and ultimately self-defeating nature of racism. Trump's base thinks it can scapegoat half the population, which is like thinking you can pee in just one end of the pool.

@Remittancegirl @Lana We should keep a running tally of the portions of Trump's base that he has betrayed...

- farmers
- small businesses
- medium businesses
- sincere Christians
- people who took the Epstein issue seriously
- and soon, the National Guard

@Lana I'm listening to Mike Duncan's History of Rome podcast (highly recommended!). One of the big takeaways is that you really need to pay your soldiers.

But... we all know that Trump has a long history of not paying people.
