    How was it not already?

    Don’t get me wrong. Fuck the lunatic, but this just seems like something that everyone assumed was already a thing, and now, when they realise it wasn’t, is super mad at Trump about, because it’s Trump.

    There’s plenty of things about this piece of shit to be mad about, but making English the official U.S. language, when roughly 80% only speak english doesn’t seem like such a far fetched take.

      The US has no official language because it is supposed to be the land of the free, where anyone can come to escape tyranny. This is another dog whistle (siren really) that will be used by the racists, bigots, and fascists to continue a campaign against minorities and promote greater deportation.
