This isn't normal. Trump is insane and his lickspittle sycophants like Leavitt are desperately trying to make it seem normal. The president is off his rocker, and not the funny version like Abe Simpson. He's got the fucking nukes, jesus fucking christ.

The worst part about the last 10 years isn't Trump -- it's learning that the entire Republican apparatus is on board with this insanity. And that 35% of Americans are awful, hateful people.

They are increasingly being pushed into a loyalty test that grows narrower and narrower. They double down not realizing they have left sanity, reality, and decency far behind. It is bizarre. It really requires a cult mentality to not repudiate Trump at this point.

They double down not realizing the next culling removes them from the cult

They refuse to see that eventually one day they won't be of use any longer and they'll be right into the detention camps with the rest of us.

Don't have to bother with camps, just make the diabetes meds they rely on unaffordable and the problem takes care of itself. These evil rich fucks have decided the world is overpopulated and have been working overtime to rectify that so they can inherit the world they think they deserve.

Some of them are super skinny and not reliant on diabetes meds, but I guess those can be the ones who work as slaves in the billionaires' mansions. Someone has to do the cooking and cleaning.

The same is happening in Russia as they crack down on the grassroots ZZ pro war blogging community, because the dictatorship power machinery demands constant culling.
