The press ought to hammering this, but they are so scared of retribution. If this were under a democratic administration it would be all the press talked about. Yet, the economy always struggles under republicans, and they tank it and then finally a democratic administration gets in and fixes it. Think about the economy post Bush 1, Clinton mopped it up…under Bush 2 economy tanks, Obama cleans it up, under Trump 1 economy tanks, ( yes Covid), Biden clears it up and economy takes off, under Trump 2 economy tanking again. Republicans always run on making the economy better yet everyone of the since Reagan has tanked it.

Absolutely! This (and so much more--especially gun control--the guns used to gun down kids at schools!) seems so obvious, but his voters don't look beyond the headlines of anti-abortion and transgender.

Maybe on MTG's road to awakening ( https://bsky.app/profile/cjgphd.bsky.social/post/3mb5ae7yhfk2w ), she'll revisit some of these topics through her emerging Christian lens, realize they are so blatantly 'un-Christian', and start advocating in a whole new way.

Thanks so much for this article!

Thank you for this article. Perhaps when lots of people are exposed to your clearly stated points, a positive shift will gain momentum.

Trump’s presidency and character is indecent. As a senior woman, I shudder to think about good people trying to raise a child under his continued detrimental regime.

Thank you for pointing out the economics and ways Trump is making all of our lives more difficult. And, the violent for-profit racism, abject cruelty, corruption, grift, war-mongering, religious idolatry, covering for abusers, and death dealing are all there too. Take your pick.

Trump is only concerned about himself!

Pro-natalist?? My eyes rolled so far back that I might never see again.
