Didn’t we have security leaks during his first term too?
Dude straight up stole classified documents, “LOST” (sold) a bunch while foreign nationals were occupying nearby rooms, then lied about it, then tried to hide it, then lied about trying to hide it. Then tried to hand wave it all by saying he prayeddeclared thought about them being declassified and therefore perfectly legal to do the things he didn’t do.
The vast majority of the dumbass shit the current administration is doing is the same dumbass shit they did the first time around, just faster and dialed up to 11.
The security leaks, demonizing LGBTQ+ folks, wanting to disband agencies, pretty much all of it was tried the first time around and mostly stopped by lawsuits and the career conservatives that didn’t want to rock the boat that much. The guardrails have been almost entirely removed this time around, so it will be the same stuff but worse and they knowingly voted for that because MAGA voters are terrible people who would rather hurt themselves than allow someone different to be treated equally.

He was the security leak during his first term. Nobody knows who saw all the classified files he took home with him last time or the ones he’s taken home this time but I suppose he didn’t just smuggle them away from prying eyes so he could show them to people who already have access.
We are far beyond elections saving us. Trump’s threat of dictatorship not withstanding, we’ve got a stacked court system ready to rule in Republican favor, and Republicans have gerrymandered their way to victory where they would have otherwise lost.
How it happened: Republicans
Damage it created: Hard to predict, because it isn’t like the damage done is instant.
How to avoid it in the future: stop electing Republicans.

People saw this as it played out and thought “well no red flags here, better go back to hating everyone that isn’t me”
What. The. Fuck.

Immigration enforcement in 2017 also directly impacted agriculture.

Previously I would be waiting for but her emails… but I don’t think they give a shit anymore since they know they can get away with anything they want
Consequence? none. Head rolling? none. Jail? none.
They might jail the journalist, no?

No amount of voting is going to fix this mess.
