A collection of recent reports of Trump's subversion of the Constitution and the rule of law.
-Trump’s wholesale dismissal of inspector generals violates the law
-The dismissals sit alongside a much broader disruption in how the country is governed. A range of spending freezes have been implemented, for example, again likely in violation of the law.
-Systems that have been unaffected by past presidential transitions this time find themselves interrupted and likely reconsidered, a sharp disruption of how the government works.
-On the first day of his reign of terror, the sick, vengeful king released 1,500 dangerous thugs, who beat the life out of cops and tried to set fire to our country, by violently stopping the certification of our election.
-We simply cannot survive this obscene level of anti-Democratic lawlessness from the fascist White House, and that makes it incredibly important how this moment in history is framed for the public.
-Trump has gone all 19th century on us. He seems to find in this period everything he likes: tariffs, Manifest Destiny, seizing land from weaker nations, mercantilism, railroads, manufacturing and populism.
-…the movement Trump leads today…a band of arrivistes, establishment-haters, money-seekers and unreconstructed nationalists.
-The problem with populism and the whole 19th-century governmental framework is that it didn’t work.
