Trump is the emergency.

https://noelcasler.substack.com/p/cold-rain-and-snow

THIS ENTIRE THING WILL BE WORTH YOUR TIME TO READ:

. . .

What is being done by the Trump administration is abhorrent and inexcusable - and the men and women behind it know they have already neutered their base enough to not to care. The most dangerous element of the MAGA phenomenon that has so imperiled our nation is its ability to separate its followers from their own humanity.

. . .

Has any nation ever drifted so far, so fast from how it viewed itself historically? I dare say a substantial amount of our fellow Americans are still unwilling to honestly appraise what we have become in such a short period of time.

Trump is the emergency.

Every day that he remains in power represents a direct threat to life on this planet. His corruption and deviant behavior are so fully outside of the norms of morality and common decency that the entire world should make removing him from office a top priority.

Putin only grows stronger while Trump is in office. NATO and the rest of the free world should make this sad fact central to their strategic planning.

. . .

Knocking out power stations in the middle of winter to maximize human suffering while Trump sits poolside at his ‘Winter White House’ and launches attacks on Nigeria as a ‘Christmas Day’ message for his fascist fans (who seem not to realize that the innocent Ukrainians dying every day are also in fact mostly Christians).

Far too many don’t care.

For those who do care, nothing can be done.
