12. I agree, but I also agree that for most people

nothing has yet changed too much. Thankfully SS checks are still arriving, ICE is a minor threat at this point to the majority of citizens. Warnings about empty shelves due to tariffs had heads turning for weeks, but even today as I walked through stores, everything was plentiful and there were many items on sale.

Believe me, I’m certain the reckoning will come, but I think republicans are banking on smoke and mirrors to continue to flim flam the public, and as long as the media plays along, they can keep up this deception for a long time, perhaps past the midterm election. This is what worries me the most.
