Trump’s Rage at Zohran Just Backfired in a Surprisingly Revealing Way The Democrats who are breaking through are the ones who talk about Trump’s disastrous economic record while also leveling with the public about our slide into authoritarianism.

When Trump threatens to nix funding to NYC if Zohran Mamdani wins, it only helps Zohran. It inflates the Trump threat, positions Zohran as a fighter for NYC against Trump, and pushes Cuomo into the role of Trump stooge.

There's a lesson here for Dems.

Stop invading our cities! There is no grave widespread emergency that warrants sending the National Guard into our cities. Leave us alone.

You can tell it’s a dystopia, because to play a game from my childhood that makes me feel okay, I have to pay one of the companies buying all the farm land a monthly subscription. #thisiscapitalism

I would love for him to be a good person, too bad he isn’t.

I like Newsome for what he is and is doing, but I don’t want him to for president.

I’m at the part of the beer where I don’t want to finish it but I don’t want to waste it either. Because of economics. #this #administration #has #led #me #to #drink

They raided the guy who threw a sandwich. Reports indicate he had tried to previously turn himself in to custody (a move I find far too kind) and they sent him home. Then they busted into his home and arrested him. THEN they made a propaganda video about it. #news

You can forget again, I won't judge you either way.

Are you all still talking about that Jeffery guy? Come on people look at everything else I've ruined! - Probably a president said that maybe. In a manner of speaking. #zillow

I blame aging infrastructure, used to be you couldn’t see the wires. It has to get power some way though. How would it glow without power?

How are you gonna just stop talking to Canada bro? Anyone who thinks this makes sense is entirely out of their element…Donnie

2.977 people died on 9/11.
The daily quote for ICE is 3000.
I think putting it in terms like that puts it into perspective.
They want one 9/11 every day.

It’s not too much to ask for
