America isn’t the way it is because Trump is president. Trump is president because America is the way it is. "Getting Beyond Trump" goes beyond the echo chambers, looks at what's really going on in the United States, and talks about what few others will. #BookCommunity

Charlie Kirk was no martyr. Charlie Kirk was a coward. Charlie Kirk wasn’t a coward for speaking in public; Charlie Kirk was a coward because of why he was speaking in public.

The irony of @catturd2 complaining about someone truthfully saying that the United States was founded on resistance.
Can't wait until this loudmouth loses a landslide next week, so I don't have to see her on my feed anymore, forever.

The @elonmusk wouldn't want you to read this book, because it mentions how unoriginal he is. But to be fair, the @TheDemocrats wouldn't want you to read it either because it describes how ineffectual they are. Truth hurts. #books #politics #truth

Musk and Trump both feature in the book, but more important is the book's detailing of the rogue gallery of right-wingers who wield power largely behind the scenes. Time to get beyond Musk and Trump.

Clinging to the illusion that it is just an aberration that will fade away on its own will only keep the pattern going. Politics is history and history is politics. Unless you keep both in mind, you are lost. The Project 2025-Trump regime is not an aberration.

Trumpy will hold 26 events in 30 days. Will that be too much for the weakening old man? #OctoberSurprise
