Interesting story and in keeping with all of the previous stories about the Epstein- Trump their very close friendship, but does it really prove anything that stand up in a court of law ?

 
One more thing to undo
Fortunately, a lot of these things - like the naming of groups/buildings and dumbass signs - can be undone quite easily once a real adult is back in charge.

The much bigger problem is going to be rebuilding the many governmental agencies & departments Trump is destroying, along with our international reputation.
 
I've thought for a long time that while 1930s Germany is a valid historical analogy to this moment, MAGA's real inspiration is Panem.
According to a 1990 Vanity Fair article, Donald Trump's first wife, Ivana Trump, told her lawyer that her husband kept a book of Adolf Hitler's collected speeches, titled My New Order, in a cabinet by his bed.

If true then I wonder whether he read the hundreds of speeches or the Cliff Notes or none at all depending upon whether there were pictures.

I'm pretty sure he has never read any of the Hunger Games unless they have pictures.
 
One more thing to undo
You know, I really do not like Gavin Newsom for Prez at all. However...

I have been recently thinking that maybe Gavin has the IDGAF mentality we need for someone to come in and really clean house rooting out each and every change Trump has made. We don't need a measured, take two month to roll back one change, two more to roll back another kind of approach. We need a mean spirited vindictive fucker to get in there and roll back each and every change right up front, not stop until they've all been done, even if their real motivating reason for doing it is spite.
 
No we aren't. That would be crazy talk.
Of course not; that would be absurd. An yet, if one were to follow the claims in the post of yours that I quoted, this would be your syllogism:

  • Liberal leaders are allowing the immigration of violent anti-Semites.
  • Voters are rejecting this by turning to fascist or Nazi-sympathetic alternatives.
  • Therefore, the rise of far-right politics is a response to liberal policies on immigration and anti-Semitism.

Or, to be more clear, perhaps the far right's obsession with Islam isn't actually about anti-semitism, but instead something else?
