CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Trump: Sleepy Joe Biden, have you heard of him? *a few moments later* Trump: 😴😴😴
I have never underestimated Trump’s lying, or his ability to spew bullshit. But he has in fact lost substantial control of his mind. And his ability to distinguish truth from lies—which was never really strong or important to him—is, at this point, de minimis.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6d agoTrump lies: "Oil will come dropping down as soon as Iran gives up, as soon as the war is over, which will be soon. Prices for groceries have come way down for Biden. Almost every price has come way down. And remember one thing -- oil is less expensive now than it was under the Biden administration."

This failure of a person gets no benefit of the doubt, no credit, no leeway. The distance between the heights he might have reached—given every advantage he has had—and the chasmic depths of his deficiencies is one of the most staggering disparities between opportunity & ability in human history.
Never in my life have I dreamed of an arch for our country instead of healthcare, clean food and water, good education, fair elections, living wages for workers, etc… My bet is you feel the same.
Another great group to follow! Be sure to thank @hopeful66.bsky.social for her relentless connecting. Grateful.

OBAMA: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the WH press corps. You’re laughing but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated a behavior like that from me.” https://www.reddit.com/r/antitrump/s/prMwdSwSqY

I have come to think we haven't been worn down by Trump’s actions, but by the lack of consequences. That our government is really more a set of suggestions. We feel no laws actually limit Trump's destructive power. Elected officials are passive to the point of hopelessness.
This is so upsetting; it was really hard to get through. But we have to know this is happening in our name. My god.
