Every day, new reasons to #Resist.
Today at CPAC, Trump’s big speech featured a declaration that he, as President, vows “one of the greatest military buildups in American history.” So that “no one will question our military might again.”
With whose dollars? Who pays in? Some from you, some from me, but not a dime from Trump and his $X billion net worth, apparently.
And to what end? Why does the Trump-Bannon-wingnut axis want a massive military buildup?
And exactly who’s questioning our military capability? Everyone the whole world over is questioning not the fitness of our military, but the fitness of its Commander in Chief. His temperamental and possibly psychological unfitness to hold the office he now holds. That’s the conversation topic. They’re not questioning the power of weapons and troops at his not-so-hypothetical disposal.
This whole chapter in American history is shameful and disturbing and sickening as-is... with the potential to be catastrophic. Catastrophic, both domestically and globally. We need to defeat and remove this mofo as soon as possible. Years matter, months matter, even weeks and days matter.
