Oh, so he backed down real quick when the fierce public backlash started really burning, just three weeks before the elections?
This is exactly how you deal with people like him. Enough of kissing his ass and practically fainting at the mere prospect of having to endure another one of his raging tantrums because you dared to tell him "no."
Let him get his fingers burned by public opinion and firm, decisive resistance from the leaders of the free world every single time.
He doesn't understand any other language. All the appeasement and fawning over him, as if he were some problem child, only embolden him to walk all over the rest of us.

My latest, for @theprogressive, on how the legal fight over school vouchers is a chance to stand up to the Trump movement. progressive.org/public-schoo…

Religious organizations are for private school vouchers. Much of the money goes to lines their pockets. Taxpayers have no way of knowing how their money is used. progressive.org/public-schoo…
Robert Repino retweeted
Declining church attendance, legal settlements for sex abuse victims are the context for churches to support vouchers. They “have often become Catholic churches’ “dominant source of funding” not just for schools, but for their affiliated parishes.”

“It takes an epic, sweeping, page-turning adventure & makes it unnervingly intimate, a meditation on meaning, vulnerability, grief, & longing that spans a lifetime and an afterlife.” — @Repino1 on Daedalus is Dead

Of the thousands of op-ed submissions the Times must receive every day, why choose to publish one advancing an argument that maybe 3 or 4% of constitutional lawyers agree with? And to publish it now, as the rule of law crumbles? What is the logic there?

Joe DeCamara was annoyed with Tom Brady during the Super Bowl TV broadcast:
"He did not highlight the phenomenal coverage by the Eagles' secondary...He's got to say the reason Mahomes can't throw the ball in the first two seconds is no one is getting open on Cooper DeJean, Quinyon Mitchell and Darius Slay. And he never said it!"
Rhea Hughes: "You know who did say it? Merrill & Mike."

Never forget this: The forces undermining our democracy, rigging our economy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. We must keep fighting in 2025 and beyond.
