Trump and his supporters are continuing to contradict themselves at every turn, in their desperation to garner votes. Between the rising prices, data center opposition, the war in Iran, and much more, Trump’s and Republicans can’t seem to get their stories straight.

The political toxicity of Trump in November is becoming too obvious to ignore
Contradictions, nonsensical arguments, opposition to broad public sentiment — Republican messaging ahead of November has it all.

With midterms only 50 days away, the Trump administration is arresting election officials and purging voters. Specifically targeting Latinos. These actions are unprecedented. Trump is once again sowing doubt in the election system to delegitimatize any results that don’t favor him.
