I agree with William Kristol that winning the midterms is not enough to save the country. It's necessary to win now and win again in 2028. We must then use our power to remake the Republic into a democracy, not an oligarchy. www.thebulwark.com/i/220018905/...

A signature is not the same as a durable commitment. Omitting the 2017 language in 2025 is tactically a messaging choice; strategically, current policy is the stronger evidence of whether those earlier principles were ever binding.

Something similar can be said about Trump's election victories. The Russians played a part, but they did what they always do: exploit US weaknesses. They didn't create those weaknesses. They only had to amplify them.

According to the Oregon Republican Party, a Viking who set foot in Canada for a couple days 500 years before Columbus set foot in the Caribbean and ~750 years before the Declaration of Independence...is emblematic of the "daring spirit that would one day build the greatest Nation on Earth." Ok.

Born in 970, Leif Erikson developed a love for exploration and adventure that he would carry through his entire life, a calling that would change the world for centuries to come. His steadfast Christian faith gave him the conviction to sail into the unknown, voyaging over 1,800 miles across the Atlantic with a small crew of 35 men and overcoming raging winds, crashing waves, and crippling storms to reach the shores of L'Anse aux Meadows in northern Newfoundland, Canada-the land he named
"Vinland." In doing so, he opened the door between two worlds and proved that no ocean could hold back the course of discovery-the same daring spirit that would one day build the greatest Nation on Earth...
As we reflect on the enduring legacy of Leif Erikson, we recognize his rightful place in our glorious American story, we honor the millions of Nordic Americans whose contributions have shaped the life of our Nation, and we commit to carrying the spirit of his marvelous discovery boldly into America's next chapter of exploration, friendship, and greatness. #leiferikson #LeifEriksonDay #nordicamericans #norseamericans #AmericanHistory101 #weloveamerica #americathebrave #proudtobeanamerican #EPluribusUnum

As sad as this comment is, it’s probably true. We are closer to a Cristian based theocracy, similar to Iran, than a western democracy with a self righteous blood lust to accompany it. Trump and MAGA haven’t changed us, they’ve held a mirror up.
