      I’m just glad to see at least a few headlines that aren’t total garbage 

    2. BigDaddyBain on

      The people who should be reading this are currently being told what to think via Fox & Friends.

    3. Republicans have updated the parable of “The Emperor’s New Clothes” with a new moral lesson more appropriate for these times:

      “That kid should have kept his f’ing mouth shut!”

      I don’t disagree, New Republic, but I’m not getting my hopes up until I see headlines like this in the New York Times or Washington Post.

    5. Americans saw him get up on stage in front of the nation and say people were running around eating cats and dogs in the street with zero proof.

      They heard him say he had a “concept of a plan” vs a woman who laid out one.

      They heard him say: “I wouldn’t be a dictator except on day one.”

      The fact he wasn’t just disgracefully kept off the ballot after January 6th says enough.

      It isn’t just Trump that’s weak and failing, it’s the country as a whole.

    6. The media isn’t allowed to release negative coverage of this admin bc they’re all owned by billionaires who are assisting in the takeover of our government.

    7. Weak. Failing. Fat. Dumb. Callous. Pedophile. Rapist. Racist. What did I forget?

      And so are the weak excuses for men and Americans orbiting and enabling his crap.

    9. novanova123123 on

      Weak is a bit subjective, especially when he has Congress and the Supreme Court wrapping around his fingers. Gotta admit he has a lot of power right now, but giving an idiot a ton of power will end up with a fail presidency and fuck up the country.

    10. He has to run his presidency on hatred, fear and division not the strength of his constructive ideas or ability solve problems because they don’t exist.

      Trump is a highly effective Russian asset, and it’s time to say so

    12. Oceanbreeze871 on

      Many people are saying. So weak and so much fail. Like nobody has even seen before

    13. adamiconography on

      Oh wow the media is finally not sane-washing Trump and calling out the exact problems we have been screaming about since he first campaigned.

      Now the media wants to mea culpa. Nah yall were complicit.

    14. NonchalantRubbish on

      I’ve been saying so since 2008 since he started the birther crap against Obama. He’s a blight on this world. And he’s old and feable.

    15. Onefortheteem on

      Apparently not, because he’s getting his way.. no one is holding him accountable out of fear.

    16. His recent booing at a sports event might have penetrated his silo and clued him into realizing that a large portion of the country hates him. Which should scare the crap out of him as he’ll lose the House during midterms and then his last two years will be nonstop and multiple impeachment hearings.

      That is if his health holds out that long . . .

      Trump has all the power of being POTUS. Do not discount or minimize the damage to the US he will continue to do.

      It doesn’t matter how much he fails and shows weakness when the press is 100% behind him and let me say this again, he’s in full control of the Executive powers granted to him by the Constitution AND all the powers and illegal actions he continues to take without opposition from Republican controlled Congress and a corrupt SCOTUS.

    18. thethrill_707 on

      Is this news? Many have been saying this now and all the way through his first useless term as POTUS. He’s never done ANYTHING particularly well, save being a SA and racist. He can’t even go a watch a simple tennis match without screwing it up and making life harder on everyone else.

    19. iamsaleendion on

      He is literally getting everything he wants and no one is stopping him wagging your finger and condemning him isn’t gonna do a damn thing

      The thing that’s really disappointing about this framing is that it only has a chance to weaken support among his base on the basis that he isn’t effective enough at being the dictator they want.

      Sure, he could lose support when it’s clear that he’s floundering and making a confusing mess of things. And there’s indications of this already happening– People like Nick Fuentes are complaining on twitter about Trump constantly, calling him Biden 2.0, etc. But make no mistake, him and people like him are only upset with Trump for being too weak/ ineffective at establishing the Christofascist America they were hoping he’d usher in.

      Sorry for being so pessimistic, I know people are eager to see Trump fall. But there’s not much of a silver lining to be found with some of his base potentially turning on him. These people aren’t turning on him for seeing the light and realizing that he’s evil and the last person who should’ve ever been president. If the reasons he loses support is because he’s „weak“ and „failing“, it means they simply want someone who’ll be better at toppling our democracy.

      The article almost recognizes this, saying:

      > Calling Trump “failing” might seem to undercut warnings about the autocratic threat he poses…

      But then immediately screws up this line of thought by following that with:

      > But it doesn’t. Even as Trump’s illegal actions mount, in many instances he’s flailing and thrashing around with ludicrous ineptitude.

      It… „doesn’t“? Really, that’s where the author landed? Anyways, the article continues with a suggestion about the messaging that Democrats should have. And while I don’t totally disagree, we have to remember that talking about him being a failing president isn’t going to move the needle on his base being less willing to install a dictator. The „autocratic threat he poses“ SHOULD be taken seriously with this kind of messaging. His base may waver on their support of him specifically, but not on their support of fascism. I don’t know what a path towards that looks like, but convincing people that Trump is weak and failing sure as hell isn’t going to be the thing that does it.

      America is kinda looking weak and failing all around. Broken supreme court, gestapo in the streets, government protecting a pedophile ~ the fake patriots have taken over, and you’re on the way down.

      I do hope you can fix it, but it’s not just Trump that looks pathetic right now. Your whole country is looking pretty sickly..

    22. barnibusvonkreeps on

      Ok, but when is it time to say he’s a treasonous pedophile that rapes children? When is it time to remove him by any means necessary?

    23. s3dfdg289fdgd9829r48 on

      Trump being a strong and successful president would be worse because he’s an *evil* president for numerous sins. Release the Epstein files!

    24. MommyLovesPot8toes on

      This is why what Newsom is doing is sooo important and effective. He makes trump look weak and flawed.

      Trump’s power is smoke and mirrors. Groups fall in line behind him because they believe every other group already has, and they fear harm from those already there.

      Universities and companies cower because they believe he has control of the money. Those in charge of the money send it where he says because they believe congressional Republicans are in agreement with him. Republican Congress members do his bidding because they believe the voters (and the militias) are behind him. Some governors and mayors allow militia members with ICE badges to terrorize their communities because they believe the military is on Trump’s side. The military complies because they believe the supreme court is behind him. The Supreme Court rules in his favor because they believe he has power.

      It’s all mirrors, amplifying the small flame of a fragile candle.
