Fuck Trump.
Over the previous few days, a few friends who have been paying attention to the news and maybe too much to what Trump has been saying, have been expressing less than optimistic concerns about Trump. Some of that arose out of Trump now spewing bullshit about running for a third term in the presidency.
I expect to hear MORE resistance to his BULLSHIT. I refuse to be silenced.
I have picked up on Trump's consistent backing down and backing off EVERY time he is BOLDLY confronted by WE the PEOPLE. I'm not the only one to have picked up on it.
Further, I and others have posted on this blog and on other social media, including Bluesky and Facebook.
Valarie Kaur, author of See No Stranger, posted the image above in 2022.
WE the PEOPLE MUST boldly confront Trump. Join me in refusing to be silenced. Join me in solidarity and optimism. When you are OPTIMISTIC, be MINDFULLY optimistic.
IF and when you are optimistic, you do NOT obey Trump's confusion and pessimistic BULLSHIT even if blasted subliminally, you will refuse to be silenced, just as I am.
Just last Friday, Michigan Law Professor and former US Attorney Barbara McQuade, in a written interview on Joyce Vance's Civil Discourse substack stated without equivocation:
Barbara McQuade, U of Michigan law professor, last Friday, on Joyce Vance's substack, Civil Discourse stated, without equivocation: The thing that gives me optimism is the way Trump backs down when he is confronted with resistance. One of his tactics is to exhaust us with conflicting claims. One day he says the president of Ukraine is a dictator and the next he denies saying that.
Professor McQuade authored the 2024 book Attack from Within AND IS OPTIMISTIC. So AM I.
Pay attention to what you say and to whom you say it.
LOVE, as Valarie Kaur has maintained, and just tonight Sen. Cory Booker, holding the floor of the US Senate, noted that LOVE is FIERCE. LOVE is powerful. LOVE is NOT fearful.
The AIM of divine RAGE is NOT vengeance but to REORDER the world. And to do so with LOVE.
No matter that you are raging against what MAGAs have done to enable Trump, YOU and I are called to move the world with a FIERCE LOVE.
