THREAD 🧵: The “America or Trump” campaign achieved remarkable engagement across various platforms, sparking widespread discussion, debate, controversy, and, most importantly, sobering reality to a public that may not have wanted to believe Trump would run again.

THREAD:
Today, House Speaker Mike Johnson is joining Trump at Mar-a-Lago. Here’s what we think you should know: Image To Trump, Johnson is as disposable as the last guy. This is what Trump does, he sucks in Republicans in power when he needs them and moves on when the relationship no longer serves him. This is why the Republican Party no longer has any core leaders other than Trump.

THREAD 🧵: Donald Trump isn't just bleeding the RNC dry of funds, he's bleeding the party of voters. Those who know how he works best, his own former employees, are refusing to give him their vote.

Don't take our word for it, listen to them: Mike Pence, Fmr. Vice President: "The reason I cannot in good conscience endorse Trump this year is because he is walking away from keeping the faith of the Constitution, a commitment to fiscal responsibility... to American leadership and the world."

Trump is a coward. When he's scared he lashes out. It's no surprise, then, that he has a history of attacking strong women who he thinks threaten him. He's afraid of the truth that they speak & the influence that they wield.

THREAD: No Labels is a dark money group that is so consumed with its own quest for power and relevancy that it is willing to risk electing Trump, despite their own acknowledgment that he is a dangerous ideologue. And like Trump, they want to weaponize the DOJ to get to attack their opponents for protected political speech. This is a desperate attempt to salvage their failing campaign and keep their fleeing supporters who have finally seen through their facade.

A quick thread on what’s at stake in tonight’s debate: Tonight is expected to be riveting. Who doesn’t want to know who will win that intense battle between Nikki Haley and Ron Desantis? Oh wait, no one because it doesn’t actually matter. It’s all just a fight for second place.

THREAD: @NoLabelsOrg, the GOP-funded Super PAC admitted their dark and MAGA-like plan to incite chaos around the 2024 Presidential election months ago on CNN: The plan is to win just enough states so there’s no clear winner and let the dysfunctional House of Representatives decide the President. Once there, they plan to play chicken with the Democrats: either support the No Labels’ chosen candidate or stick the nation with Trump.

THREAD: Jim Jordan is considered the most MAGA member of Congress. He's a Trump sycophant whose elevation to Speaker would be a disaster for democracy. Every member who votes for him is voting for an insurrectionist over democracy.

Here’s what you need to know about Jim Jordan: He is an extremist who denies that President Biden won the election.

Jordan is an insurrectionist who worked with the Trump White House to try and delay the certification of the 2020 election in an attempt to steal the election.

🧵: If election denying insurrectionist Jim Jordan wins Speakership, it'll be bc the #Biden18 didn't stand up. They have a responsibility to support the institution by finding other choices for Speaker. It’s time for them to put country over party & finally say enough is enough.
Image The #Biden18 must make a choice: Will they stand with the American people, decency, and democracy here, and around the world, or will they choose Trumpism, and chaos?

THREAD: GOP instability threatens our national security, national defense, & our allies. With two US allied countries in active war zones looking to America, MAGA extremists are blocking the government’s ability to carry out basic functions & provide leadership & assistance. The House still has NO speaker–House GOP is still trying to “out MAGA” each other because they’re beholden to Trump. Key ambassador positions are waiting. We have NO confirmed ambassadors to Israel or Egypt because of political stunts pulled by MAGA senators like @tedcruz.

.@TheRickWilson once warned “everything Trump touches dies", but the Republican Party just never listens. People that have lost everything by cozying up to a broke wannabe authoritarian weirdo are countless... But we tried to narrow them down in our #ETTD Hall of Defame. Image Kevin McCarthy

How it started: Flew to Mar-A-Lago 2 weeks after the January 6th Capitol attack to kiss the ring

How it's going: removed from the Speakership in 1 vote after going through 15 votes to get elected

The "concerned about Biden’s age & health" crowd conveniently ignores Trump is only 3 years younger, overweight, doesn’t read, refers to CEOs by their company's name, "covfefe", "misplaces" classified docs, & confuses 9/11 with 7-eleven.

If we missed anything, let us know👇 "Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.", misspells his own wife’s name as “Melanie”, mistakes a picture of the woman he sexually abused with his ex-wife, is delirious about his inauguration size, stares DIRECTLY into a solar eclipse, suggests injecting bleach to treat COVID-19.

THREAD 🧵: Rudy Giuliani being named alongside Trump & 17 others indicted under RICO law is irony at its finest. He spent decades taking down criminal enterprises w/ RICO laws, now he’s on the other side of the very statute that made him famous.

A brief history of Rudy & RICO: Image The RICO Act (short for “Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations”) was first drafted by G. Robert Blakey and signed into law by President Nixon in 1970 intending to convict prominent members of crime families previously deemed “untouchable.” Image
