It’s Time to Check Back in, Liberals—Trump 2.0 Will Be Far, Far Worse
newrepublic.com
Most people I know—even me, to an extent—have been avoiding it. Well, we don’t have that luxury anymore.

Summary

It’s time to reengage with politics as Trump prepares to take office again.

Unlike 2017, Trump now has a more compliant establishment, streamlined strategies, and influential allies like Musk, Zuckerberg, and Bezos.

Concerns include his administration’s potential for sweeping authoritarian measures, such as Project 2025, and media normalization of his actions.

Vigilance is necessary to counter efforts to dismantle democratic institutions.

    I’m just waiting for the Free Palestine folks to show us the way. I am ready to see some real radical action, amirite?

      Fucking wild to me that, even when abandoning Palestine didn’t work and the post mortem showed it definitely hurt Harris’ turnout, libs are still doubling down on it and kicking the people affected by it in the face.

      But hey, maybe “shut up the rich people’s yacht fund economy is fine” will resonate more in 2028.

        Palestine is less than 1% of an issue

        You think that’s what decided the election you’re delusional

      I am sure they have all the answers. They sure had the answers for everyone during the election.
