An old meme about Superman advocating for diversity in America is making the rounds on the internet, just in time for an election that, once again, centers on Donald Trump’s vision of a white, Christian, anti-immigrant America.
Dozens of former Trump administration officials — including his former VP Mike Pence, former Chief of Staff John Kelly, and two of his former defense secretaries — have denounced the Republican nominee, with many instead endorsing Kamala Harris for president.
The rally bore glaring similarities to a Nazi rally held at an earlier iteration of Madison Square Garden in 1939. “My reaction is that it was a combination of 1933 Germany, 1939 Madison Square Garden last night,” former Trump adviser Anthony Scaramucci said on Monday.
During his term in office, Trump not only gutted the ability of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to enforce the law, he weakened PFAS safeguards, allowing the contamination crisis to deepen across the country, including here in North Carolina.
Obama touted Kamala Harris’ record and plans, while highlighting Donald Trump’s unfitness and lack of character. The former president also called out NC Republicans for their outlandish behavior and rhetoric.
“Donald Trump’s actions and intentions would effectively put politicians in the exam room with doctors and our patients,” Dr. Amelia Sutton, a maternal-fetal medicine physician in Charlotte, writes in an op-ed.
“I need the kind of generals that Hitler had,” Trump reportedly said in a private conversation in the White House. And in an interview with The Atlantic, Trump’s former chief of staff John Kelly recalled that Trump once raised the idea of needing “German generals” to him directly.
During a weekend appearance in Pennsylvania, 78-year-old Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump spent 12 minutes rambling about golfer Arnold Palmer — including a bizarre aside about the size of Palmer’s genitalia.
Vice President Kamala Harris intends to support small business owners and entrepreneurs by reducing their expenses and increasing their access to capital. Trump’s tariff proposal, however, could cause small businesses’ costs to rise.
Trump’s proposed tariff of between 100% and 2,000% on foreign-made cars entering the US would raise prices on both domestic and imported cars and “likely send thousands of US workers to the unemployment line,” according to Howard Gleckman, a senior fellow in the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center at the Urban Institute.
