Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing?
Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

These photos are not only disgusting on their own but metaphors for Trump. He destroys everything he touches: Democracy, the rule of law, international alliances and most important, he destroys our relationships with fellow Americans. He is un-American and yes, he is a fascist.

In this video, Andrews points out something important. When people think of Christians, they tend to think of the Christian nationalists who cheer on Trump's evil. That makes non-evil Christians like Andrews furious. Others should feel that way too.

A rambling and incoherent Trump wants to turn DC into his personal police state despite a 30-year low in crime.
He's a pathetic wannabe dictator who wants to distract you from his connection to the Epstein files, skyrocketing costs, and his weak job numbers.
Don't let him.
