Dump Trump 2020 T Shirts

If Donald Trump’s presidency is going to end before 2025, it should end at the ballot box.
A lot of what has been revealed by Trump’s desire to see Ukraine investigate Joe and Hunter Biden — or at least publicly announce an investigation — merely confirms character traits, instincts, and habits that have been on display since Trump was inaugurated, if not dating back to the campaign and his whole public life.
You didn’t have to be a master detective to figure out that Trump had an unusually sympathetic view of Vladimir Putin and Russia; he repeatedly expressed it on the campaign trail in 2015 and 2016. No one could be surprised by the idea that Trump publicly humiliates, berates, and scapegoats those who work for him. No one could be surprised that Trump demanded absolute loyalty and then extended almost no loyalty to those who worked for him. Jeff Sessions should have known exactly whom he was endorsing and later serving under as attorney general.
You didn’t have to be a master detective to figure out that Trump thinks everyone who opposes him is deeply corrupt in every imaginable way. He does not care about perceptions of hypocrisy; he mocked Mark Sanford for marital infidelity on Twitter.
Trump chooses to believe what he hears if it fits a narrative of his own excellence or his foes’ nefariousness. Trump said that a man who charged the stage at his event in Dayton, Ohio, was connected to ISIS; when Meet the Press host Chuck Todd said there was no evidence of his being linked to ISIS and that Trump had fallen for a hoax, Trump responded, “All I know is what’s on the Internet.” No one should be the least bit surprised that Trump would easily believe any claim that some vital DNC server was secretly smuggled out to Ukraine and that Hunter Biden was the linchpin of a vast international bribery and corruption ring.
Any American voter who was paying attention could figure all this out, and enough Americans in enough states voted to make Trump president anyway. If you don’t like that outcome, blame whoever you like for that. If enough Republican voters had united around one non-Trump alternative, Trump would not have won the Republican nomination. If enough anti-Trump voters of any party had united around one alternative candidate in the general election, Trump would not have become president. The American people knew what they were getting when it came to Trump and they voted for him anyway . . . And now here we are, three years later, with the consequences of that decision.

South Dakota declared war on meth. But critics say state policies doom any hope of change

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem defended her state’s antidrug campaign, saying she “knew it would be provocative” and that “we wanted people to start talking about meth in a way that they never have before.” (South Dakota Department of Social Services) By  ERIN B. LOGAN STAFF WRITER  NOV. 21, 2019   4 AM For all the ridicule South Dakota is receiving for its new antidrug slogan — “Meth. We’re On It.” — experts in substance abuse say the most important story is being missed. South Dakota is the only state that classifies ingestion of illegal substances as a felony, a hard-line approach that has widely been shown to make it harder to break the cycle of addiction. Even if a user manages to go clean, a felony conviction makes it more difficult to find a job, especially one with health insurance, increasing the chances of a relapse. The law in effect “criminalizes addiction,” said Libby Skarin, policy director for the state’s American Civil Liberties Union. It

South Dakota launches a new anti-drug campaign with the tagline, 'Meth. We're on it.' ( Meth We're On It T Shirt )

Gov. Kristi Noem of South Dakota. (CNN) South Dakota launched a new campaign Monday to battle a methamphetamine crisis that Gov. Kristi Noem says is "growing at an alarming rate." The tagline for the campaign: "Meth. We're on it." It's made South Dakota the butt of many jokes, but Noem says the subject is no laughing matter. Many anti-drug campaigns make people feel more hopeless or serve only to condemn users, she says. But this one will be different.
