Donald Trump Is Following the Dictator's Playbook https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2PJP8NIMg4&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

Trump’s biggest corruption yet https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-biggest-corruption-yet?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
Americans want a fairer economy. Trump Republicans won’t deliver one.
Instead, Trump and his allies are readying more tax cuts for big corporations and the wealthy and regulatory rollbacks.
They’re preparing to hand the country over to billionaires.
Be warned.
Hello?
Trump wants Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to be Health Secretary. OMG. Really? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trump-wants-robert-f-kennedy-jr-to?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
One of Trump's biggest promises was to address the rising cost of living. But will he do anything to challenge the main source of high prices — corporations who have gobbled up their competitors and now have enough market power to keep prices high even as their costs have dropped? Of course not.
Corporate monopolies get rich, and we pay the tab. Keep the receipts.
Trump said he’d drain the Washington swamp. But he appointed more billionaires, CEOs, and Wall Street moguls to his first admin than any admin in history.
What's he planning for his second term? Appointing more billionaires, CEOs, and Wall Street moguls to his admin. Hello?
Trump's early admin picks (Wiles as chief of staff, Miller as deputy chief of staff, Homan as border czar, Zeldin as EPA administrator, Stefanik as ambassador to the U.N.) have one thing in common.
It’s not their expertise. It’s their unblinking loyalty to Trump.
Be warned.
As an immigrant, Elon Musk can't run for president himself, so he spent $130M+ of his own money to buy the presidency for Trump.
Trump will be the one sworn in, but pay attention to who's really pulling the strings.
Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. MAGA Republicans want to stoke so much fear and hatred that people forget this. Do not.
To recap, the Republican Party has opposed:
-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Tax increases on corporations & the rich
-The expanded Child Tax Credit
-Student debt relief
Doesn't sound like the party of the working class to me.
Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Let’s be clear: U.S. citizens are the only people who vote in U.S. elections.
Nobody else does.
When Trump claims otherwise, he is lying.
Donald Trump left office with the lowest approval rating of any president ever. But some people now seem to be suffering from amnesia. Let me jog your memory before tomorrow. https://www.facebook.com/946262746867173/videos/539563658929769?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

Honestly, there's so much more, from exchanging “love letters” with North Korea's brutal dictator to undermining NATO to late-night tweet binges.
Tell me the biggest things you think I may have missed.
