Look just because he's looting the fucking US doesn't actually make it his money and you do us all a disservice by acting like it is his money instead of ill-gotten gains stolen from the fucking taxpaying populace.

How we talk about these things matters and normalizing it as "his money" hurts all of us.

it is his money until someone makes it right...just like its his laws, his policies and his agencies, etc. etc. etc.

Don't come at with with 'well let's be all civilized and use proper verbage and blah blah blah' because, and I want to be very frank:

Nazis and fascists will not stop until you MAKE THEM.

...and making them involves not talking about it like they've already won. Excuse the fuck out of me for knowing that allowing them to dictate the terms of reality means they get to control the conversation which is how we fucking got here to begin with.
