We deal with the dire situation in Gaza, Putin’s war in Ukraine, the existential threat of climate change, obscene and rising levels of income and wealth inequality, attacks on our democracy and women’s rights, rising levels of bigotry and intolerance, unprecedented threats from artificial intelligence, a broken healthcare system, a massive increase in military spending – and much, much more. And, yes, Donald Trump – who is becoming more right-wing and extremist by the day and who is ahead in many polls to become the next president of the United States. Donald Trump, who recently said that migrants are “poisoning the blood of our country”. Donald Trump, who uses language that echoes Adolf Hitler, referring to his political opponents as “a disaster” and vowing to “eradicate” them. Donald Trump, who called the January 6 uprising a “beautiful day”. The same Donald Trump who wants to give massive tax breaks to the very rich, throw millions out of their healthcare, and refuses to even acknowledge the reality of climate change. (Bernie Sanders)
