Just now I am “enjoying” drinks and dinner surrounded by trumpers. They’re overjoyed about the birthday parade. They’re loving the demonstration of raw dictatorial power. They’re vicariously feeling as if they are the ones exercising that power, and that makes them feel GREAT. They totally don’t see that they are the victims of that arbitrary power, not the beneficiaries. Fuckin morons. ---

I agree fuck all of them. Which trump & his hate-filled successors doubtless will. Just not fast enough to suit your and my notions of justice. _Nobody_ wins when Democracy is replaced w totalitarianism. Some gain a temporary advantage and fuck them for desiring that. These folks sure think that’ll be them. They also don’t believe the “temporary” part. Which only proves they’re stupid enough to vote for their own screwing. Along w everyone else’s screwing. Stupid amoral fuckers. ---

The “Fuck Trump/And Fuck You for Voting for Him” flags were in big display at No Kings yesterday, including one hanging on the memorial column on Boston Common. Couldn’t agree more. ---

Trump is notorious for being easily swayed by the most recent person to talk to him, so he constantly flip-flops according to whichever toady _last_ talked to him. That’s likely what’s happening. ---

> [@Fear\_Itself](#): > > Trump flipflops as Homeland Security takes aim at farmers and hotels again: Of course they have - there’s no way to meet their unrealistic quotas without doing that. Also: > [@aurora\_maire](#): > > He’s got to choose whose faces will get eaten - the donors or the true believers. Of course > [@ASL\_v2.0](#): > > Why not both? But I suspect the eating will be in this order: immigrants, true believers, and finally the donors when there is no one left to speak for them. ---

The leopards have gotten fat off the faces of the unsuspecting, who did not believe that the leopards would eat _ **their** _ faces. Eventually they will become slow and lazy in the throes of their obesity and it will be possible to eradicate them. ---
