Summary

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz Tim Walz warns that Trump may soon arrest political opponents and potentially groom one of his sons, likely Donald Jr., as a successor.

“It’s going to get very dark,” Walz told CNN, citing Trump’s defiance of a judge’s order on Venezuelan migrants and calls to impeach a federal judge as evidence of authoritarian tendencies.

He expressed concern that Democratic leaders underestimate Trump’s authoritarianism and public frustration with both parties.

Walz criticized Schumer’s handling of the GOP spending bill and questioned how Democrats will rebuild institutions damaged by Trump.

    Spineless fucks.

      It’s really crazy that they think capitulation will save them and we already have tons of examples of groups complying with this batshit administration and then immediately getting punished anyway.

        This is what happens when people refuse to learn about history. We are doomed to repeat the same mistakes, and instead of facing it head-on, people would rather ignore it or change it entirely.
