"Americans are waking up. A grand reckoning awaits us" Robert Reich
'Trump has revealed himself in ways his first-term handlers wouldn’t allow – as a sociopath who posts AI cartoons showing himself shitting on millions of Americans who marched against him. A malignant narcissist unable to respond to the tragic killings of Rob and Michele Reiner without making it all about himself. A chronic liar who says prices are dropping when everyone knows they’re rising.
As Americans see all this, outrage has been growing. We are beginning to mobilize – not all of us, of course, but the great majority.'
