HEY CENTRISTS- You're pissed off about the left allegedly "helping Trump"?

So I assume you're going after #Pelosi and Dem leaders for eagerly passing Trump's signature bills, saying kidnapping migrant kids was just a policy difference, and giving him a pass on 95% of his abuses?
If the point of your argument is that criticizing Biden is "helping Trump" then be consistent and hold the Dem party leadership accountable for miserably failing to stop Trump, Barr, Kavanaugh, and the rest of the GOP crooks.

If that's not helping Trump, what is?
PLEASE don't tell me Pelosi impeached Trump.

She spent months shunning anyone who raised impeachment. Then around Christmas, she pushed impeachment-lite that absolved him of the vast majority of his worst abuses, including torturing migrant kids.

You can fall for that. I won't.

I'm worried about you.
Here's why:

I survived war, which involved long stretches being housebound, rockets raining down nightly, deafening gun battles, no electricity, scarce supplies, and terror.

Yet, this #COVID19 #pandemic has a different sort of anxiety because it's striking across the globe.
I've lived with PTSD for decades and I worry about the millions of people who will have permanent trauma from this #pandemic.

It's very difficult and I'm sending you love and strength. 💙✊🏽

THREAD -- TRUMP ISN'T THE MAIN PROBLEM

Some people think defeating Trump solves everything and we can go back to "normal."

Normal was schoolkids massacred, millions without healthcare, kids in cages, climate crisis, severe inequality, forever wars...

ALL THAT WAS BEFORE TRUMP.
TRUMP ISN'T THE MAIN PROBLEM

In the Bush era, countless people died for a war based on lies that many Dems supported. Civil liberties were violated, babies were droned ... and under Obama and Pelosi, those policies were CONTINUED and EXPANDED. Bush is now beloved by Dem leaders.
TRUMP ISN'T THE MAIN PROBLEM

Crooked GOP lawmakers have been destroying our checks and balances for decades. Voter suppression, emboldening white supremacists, stacking the courts, spewing rightwing propaganda through their massive media network (Fox, Limbaugh, Sinclair, etc.)

The stock market soaring today on the promise of potential mass death is peak ghoulish capitalism.

SICKENING

#NotDying4WallStreet
For those who don't get my point:

Trump signaled he's willing to reopen the country even while admitting it will cause illness & death. The futures soared last night and the market is up big (as of this writing) on that news. His goal was to boost stocks and he achieved it.
Like I said...
