Even more than the fascism and white supremacy, the very core of MAGA is the endless drive to make us accomplices in Trump's own narcissism. Their primary ideological commitment is "Trump is great" and they will attack and punish us until we, too, admit Trump is great.
SCOOP: Sources tell me Donald Trump's name was added to the exterior of the US Institute of Peace building ahead of Thursday's peace agreement signing between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), which will be held inside the building. Confirming if it's been officially renamed.
