|

<p>Trump needs his cabinet of chaos appointed by congress. There are rumors that many Republicans already won’t support his picks. So this is either a lie and he proceeds as planned without congress in the way, or they stand in the way. If they do there is a constitutional provision for him to declare a recess and appoint whoever he wants. If the latter happens that’s a big sign that we already live in an autocracy that has no functional democratic parts left.</p>

<p>Trump will fail. How he fails will be determined by how things play out in the upcoming years. But he will fail. The world we will inherit will likely be shaped greatly by his ruinous actions. But you get to determine who you are. Now, tomorrow, and for every day that you survive and advance. You bring who you are to the new world. It will be a world that all of us survivors get to shape in our image and serve our values. So what are your values? I’m not advocating for you to actively harm MAGA or anyone who disagrees with you. That’s not my style and it shouldn’t be yours. But no one requires you to spend any time or energy on people who literally can’t be bothered to care if you live or you die. So cut ties with anyone who holds back your personal growth. Join me in shaping a reality that we want to live in. Be honest about your needs and desires. Be bold with a future that is truly better for all. Be ready, when our enemies defeat themselves the world will be ours for the making. And we will re-create it not as it is now. No more will there be the brokeness, the corruption, the greed, the selfishness, the bigotry, the scandals, the thievery, the enslavement, the exploitation, the pain, the suffering, the sorrow, the mourning, the capitalism, the colonialism, the contempt, the grief, nor the shame.</p>
