When you insist on voting for the guy who literally campaigned on a promise of vandalism.
The Trump admin telling unpaid Treasury workers to stop photographing the demolition because it’s making Trump look bad has to be the cherry on top of this shit show.
New Yorkers know he has done shit like this before
I’d sure love to see the day where anything with this asshole’s name associated with it is blown up like this:
Also, the crying from the radical right wing along with the dopey centrists and “leftists” will probably be quite epic, just like it was when it came to tearing down statues of Confederate traitors and losers.
This will be 100% true if the workers are all undocumented immigrants and ICE immediately deport them when the work is done.
They wouldn’t wait for the work to be done. They would let it sit unfinished and decaying as all their necessary workers were shipped to El Salvador.
Then they’d beg them to come back to train American workers
This is TERRIBLE! Obama is DESTROYING the White House what a COMMUNIST!
Oh it’s Trump? Nevermind this is GREAT and MUCH NEEDED!
Y’all remember when he said “It’ll be near it but not touching it and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of”
The house, senate, the courts and the American voters all told Trump he can do whatever he wants and now they’re freaking out that he is.
now they’re freaking out
Are they, though?
This isn’t entirely on Dumptruck Don or his administration
The entire government and nation as a whole is complicit for just standing there and letting it all happen
What a shit show of a nation America has become
Man I’d love to hear what me, a married middle aged white guy in the Midwest who’s always voted Dem (despite it mattering very little where I am) could do to stop this.
Please tell me.
We need to show up in DC with about a million others, and forcibly remove them from office, to take back the country and ensure the government serves the people instead of just the rich.
It’s that simple, but organizing the effort is actually quite a challenge. Especially with the rich capturing all forms of social media, while simultaneously shutting down third spaces at every opportunity.
Direct action is the way - nobody will swoop in to save us, and we aren’t voting our way out of this.
Forcibly? I’m sure there are worse takes, but I just can’t think of any now.
What a shit show of a nation America has become
American here.
HEY!!!
…yeah, ok. Fair enough.
