Trump’s officials are quietly concerned about his “blatant criminal behavior.” What took them so long?

It is time to stop examining the chaos and time to do something about it.

I have a source inside the Trump regime who feels, in their own words, “a little disillusioned.” This person says they signed on to the Trump team because of “DEI going too far” and because “woke culture was dividing the country,” but is now concerned about the “blatant criminal behavior” of Donald Trump. Really? His last administration didn’t show you that? Well, OK.

This source first approached me by saying, “I can provide you bonafides to show you I’m serious.” That impressed me because I didn’t think many people inside the Trump regime knew what bonafides were, let alone how to be serious.

This source’s concerns about Trump are indeed legitimate, and deserve to be heard. “Not all of us are buying everything he says,” this person told me. “We understand the problem, but we see no solution. You guys in the press, with very few exceptions, are not trustworthy. Congress can’t be trusted and the judiciary so far hasn’t been able to stop him.”

    Meanwhile, with a compromised press and Trump ignoring any judicial ruling he dislikes, the Democrats are still no help. They’re nearly as crazy as Trump if they think that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could be a viable presidential candidate. No matter what they think of her policies, very few Republicans who despise Trump would vote for her. “I wouldn’t,” my White House source told me. “I’m not crazy. The far left is as bad as the far right, and they’re the reason I voted for Trump.” There are plenty of moderate Democrats who agree.

    Imagine thinking AOC is far left. Ok now imagine thinking that kind of far left is just as bad as the far right.

    Like for example, informing people of their constitutional rights, advocating for things like accessible Healthcare and protections for workers is every but as bad as shipping people off without due process to El Salvador prison where they’ll die, grabbed by a militarized and masked police force that snatches people off the street, or from their homes or school.

    Somehow it’s the fault of the democrats who won’t accept moderate Republicans. But also there are plenty of moderate democrats that agree that the far left is just as bad.

    Well it’s amazing that insiders are finally able to suspect something is wrong, but they are still so gripped by cult doctrine they can’t make any progress.

    Someone has got to start talking about “inclusion” instead of division

    because of “DEI going too far” and because “woke culture was dividing the country,”

    No, woke culture unites the country. That’s the fucking point. “Woke” means you accept that everyone is different and you agree to tolerate and respect those differences. Your insistence on hating people you view as different is what divides us.

      Bullshit. “Woke culture” is also filled with evangelism, moralizing, and authoritarian assertion. You guys just want different people beaten with sticks by the pigs.

        Bullshit. Makes up an argument based solely on my feelings and not remotely in any fact

        No, you just get 100% of your political knowledhe from the Conservative Propaganda Machine.

        All Woke means is “Live and Let Live.” What is the problem with some people choosing different paths for their lives? You go your way, they go theirs. As long as you don’t mess with their journey, nobody will mess with yours. See how that works?

            “Here’s what my talking parrot thinks about this issue”. Great input, if I wanted to talk to a chatbot I’d do that. This isn’t a conversation, it’s meaningless noise regurgitated by a machine.

    “We understand the problem, but we see no solution."

    STOP HELPING HIM IS A GOOD START.

    the Declaration includes a description of the king of England that Trump should memorize, and perhaps recognize: “A prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of free people.”

    Lol! Does anyone honestly believe that if Trump actually read that sentence, that he would even understand what it meant? You may as well be asking a 12 year old in special ed class to read and interpret Shakespeare.
