Dictators want to dictate. Gotta hang out with the best.

Vindman makes a good point: People very likely have recordings of these calls. A classic example of "kompromat" that Putin has on Trump; likely Putin has a ton of stuff on him that he could release if he wanted to. All part of the plan to keep Trump in check as a loyal supplicant.

Caption for that photo: Putin is whispering: "I can make you richer than you could ever imagine."

Threating CBS News because they ... did an interview with Kamala Harris (to which Trump was also invited but refused).

Dictator talk from a dictator. What am I missing here?

You aren’t missing anything. Today he is threatening FOX News for not covering him nice enough.

No fact checking allowed on the GOP.

Any news media that says something negative about Trump will be prosecuted if he has his way. Good stuff only! About his opponents? Yes, slander away.

Trump keeps talking about how he wants to go after the media if he is re-elected. I assume Elon "free speech absolutist" Musk would dislike this? I keep hearing that Trump is the free speech candidate, but I don't agree if this is what he wants to do with anyone who dares criticize or defy him.

This quote made me think of Trump and MAGA:

Painter Vincent van Gogh on hope:

"Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, "What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now."

Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope."

I think when I get the most glum is when I think about 45-50% of the country openly cheering for fascism and cruelty toward others. But then I have to remind myself that that's only 45-50% of the -electorate-. We have a horrible voter turnout in this country. I don't think 45-50% of the country is that lost, that evil. It's only about 20%. That is still a lot, but we may yet be able to recover and remediate.

It all depends on your media sources and who you listen to.

They put their faith in a con man and they aren’t smart enough to know they are being conned.

And that con man owns the party and this FOX News. FOX doesn’t even like him but, they cannot turn on him or they lose their base and that is much more important than our country.
