Summary

A genuine backlash to Trump’s ethno-nationalist authoritarianism may be starting to take shape on its own terms.

The Washington Post-ABC News poll shows “Trump slipping underwater on immigration, which has been his best issue,” with 56% of independents disapproving of his handling.

Only 21% of independents want wrongfully deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia to remain imprisoned. These policies “raise basic issues of fundamental fairness, due process, and the rule of law.”

Trump’s lawlessness across the board is clearly a problem, reinforcing the view he’s engaged in rampant extralegal abuses of power.

    Or that Ball Park Hot Dog Oligarch DINO Elissa Slotkin, who gave the Democratic response to HitlerPig’s SOTU address, and started by trying to sell the concept that there were millions of people who voted a straight Democratic ticket, except for HitlerPig at the top.

    Sure, there were probably a few, but they are as rare as white squirrels. She was the water carrier for the weak Democratic excuse that HitlerPig win “fair & square,” so they could act smug about their “peaceful transfer of power” to literal Nazis. Something to really be proud of, assholes.

    Anyhoo, she came out this week and said that they should stop attacking the “Oligarchy,” basically saying that people are too stupid to understand what the word oligarchy means. Of course she thinks that, she’s a Sociopathic Oligarch herself, a DINO at best, and a MAGA Oligarch Mole at worst. Remember that she was previously a CIA analyst, so she comes from a world where lies and duplicity are a valued skill.

    She’s a snake, and I hope she gets successfully primaried for reelection.
