I miss the days when very rich people used their money to fund libraries, public art and philanthropic endeavors rather than launching slow-motion coups against the federal government.

This sentence from @davidfrum captures perfectly why it’s so difficult to write about almost anything related to Trump: “The situation was simultaneously too stupid for serious journalism and too shameful for wisecracks.”

If I didn’t know better I’d assume this cant possibly be real

Trump's Administration is trying to overwhelm people's ability to respond to their illegal actions. They've admitted it. We cannot let them steamroll our democracy. Speak out, share your story, call lawmakers, and engage in peaceful protest. I'll be working right alongside you.
