lets. lets not call donald trump ‘fuhrer trump’. im not saying this bc of the “is comparing donald trump to hitler minimizing the holocaust” discussion that we were having in early 2016 because i don’t think that rhetoric is relevant any more, at this point historical context is very important, but holy shit, please don’t call him führer trump!
i’m jewish and thats the most triggering antisemitism-related thing ive heard in ages, like fuck don’t do that? don’t tell me i’m living under a second nazi germany in such a casual, flippant, ironic way? he is the president, he is doing terrible things, and this isn’t time for your cute little jokes about how we’re all going to be as fucked as the germans were. don’t do that. DON’T call him hitler for cheap emphasis when i’m already trying so hard to feel anything but paralyzing terror
(edit: please if you tend to put SJ stuff on your blog reblog this post instead of just liking it, i really want it to get visibility)
What Trump’s Supreme Court pick will say about his governing style
President Trump has turned ‘a pen and a phone’ into a pen and a megaphone. Thanks, Obama?
Trump’s claim of an additional $600 million applies to the next block
of aircraft—a 90-plane order. Negotiations for Block 10 were already under way
before the election, and the projected price per aircraft was under
$100 million. The increased production rate would reduce Lockheed’s
costs, in theory. With the price already set to drop by at least $2
million per aircraft, another 4 percent off the lot’s price doesn’t seem
to be much of a stretch.Lockheed executives had promised a price reduction for the F-35 following a tweet by Trump in December. Aside from the tweet, and Mattis’ ordered review, it’s not clear what sort of work Trump has done on the program since.
