Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe. And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.

On the left, my warning from September 2024 about what Trump 2.0 would look like. On the right, recent headlines. I wish I'd been wrong. But because Trump is following a classic authoritarian playbook, it’s up to state and local governments to push back on this tyranny while it’s still possible.
Excerpt from "Something Lost, Something Gained," page 229: Welcome to Trump's America. If you live in a major city, the first thing you'll probably notice are the soldiers patrolling the streets outside your window.NBC News headline: National Guard troops in DC begin carrying firearms

Washington Post headline: Pentagon plans military deployment in Chicago as Trump eyes crackdown

Pritzker: Trump looked at the cameras and asked for me personally to say, Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city? Instead, I say, Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. Your remarks about this effort have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties

That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.

Vietnam thought it had a preliminary deal with the US to lower its tariff level substantially. Then, at the last minute, Trump raised the rate. “Trump sandbagged everybody,” said a DC-based lobbyist. He described the Vietnamese government’s reaction as “surprise, as well as disappointment & anger.”

Vietnam thought it had a deal on its US tariff rate. Then Trump stepped in.
Neither side has released documentation of the tariff terms, raising questions about whether they did, in fact, reach an agreement.
