Robert Reich

A presidential candidate who would welcome Nick Fuentes and Kanye West to dinner is a candidate who is completely untethered.

A candidate who has no one around him to tell him no.

He is surrounded by people as crazy as he is. Which means he’s even more dangerous.

@rbreich I just read that he has a viral post on Truth Social about throwing out the constitution and essentially creating a dictatorship with him in charge. He is the presumptive GOP front runner and no one is condemning this! https://open.substack.com/pub/heathercoxrichardson/p/december-3-2022?r=4o648&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post

Today, one of former president Trump’s messages on the struggling right-wing social media platform Truth Social went viral. In the message, Trump again insisted that the 2020 presidential election had been characterized by “MASSIVE & WIDESPREAD FRAUD & DECEPTION,” and suggested the country should “throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or…have a NEW ELECTION.”

On his platform, TruthSocial. The post:
"... the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution."

Interesting his use of the word "articles.” As thats the term that separates the different parts of the Constitution.
Article I is powers of Congress
Article II is the powers of the President.
Article III the Supreme Court.
Article IV the States and The People

Just an accident he used the term Articles? They should all be "terminated."

@rbreich to see the bigger picture of how much of a mental problem the US has, there are a bunch of people who also voted for a person as crazy as the people he surrounds himself with. The US, without a doubt and unequivocally is infested with Nazis. Your grandparents didn’t die in WW 2 for this to happen.

You have to protest like you’re seeing in Iran, consecutively, daily, weekly and monthly demanding them to be removed and demanding change that will bring prosperity. We are paying taxes so the candidates who promised us hard work, do some god damn work!

@rbreich Unfortunately, the same can be said of Kanye West. These are both deeply mentally ill individuals (without any treatment sought) who should not be allowed anywhere near political power. Unfortunately, they are also charismatic and persuasive, so we entrust our lives to their whims too often.

What about a University that welcomed Milo Yiannopoulos and a professor who accused the youth (who were defending the students of that University from that dangerous person) of potentially being in cahoots with Yiannopoulos and Brietbart?

The antifascist youth were right and that professor was wrong. Your neighbors here in the East Bay are still waiting for an acknowledgment of that and an apology.

Some of those running Trump's campaign have assigned him a full-time babysitter.

"The changes will include expediting a system, borrowed from Trump’s White House, in which a senior campaign official will be present with him at all times, according to one of the people."
2022-midterm-elections-entertainment-racial-injustice-government-and-politics-1d5fc88833c418b39550a77502e5bcc3

The question is: Can the babysitter tell Trump no and actually make Trump obey.

I've noticed that recently, there's been a change in the Jewish conspiracy theories coming from Internet Nazis.

Before, Trump was depicted as the one saving us from the Jewish conspiracies. Now, he is depicted as working with the Jews or being controlled by them.

Trump is losing the support of Nazis. The timing of this dinner is obviously an attempt to get their support back.

@rbreich I think you’re right but I also want to emphasize that even if he had people around him to tell him no, when he was given the choice, this is what he choose for himself. Saner people around him don’t make him less destructive and insane. They hide his destructiveness and insanity.

I just want to see the prosecution for seditious conspiracy lag out long enough for his narcissistic rage to splinter the Fascist Party (formerly the Republican Party).
