It's been said before, but if these people were actual agents of an enemy power seeking to divide, dismantle and destroy the USA they wouldn't be doing anything different. 641170654042 0

Peter Brouwer @peterbrouwer.bsky.social · 31/01/2025Mr. Trump practices the politics of division rather than unity. Mr. Trump’s instinct is to move quickly from grief to grievance.
