Now what? Three to-do list items for caring and thinking people at the dawn of Trump 2.0 • NC Newsline
SUMMARY: Donald Trump has returned to the presidency, and his return sparks fear among many Americans, especially marginalized groups. His authoritarian style and grievance-driven rhetoric create a climate of fear about the nation’s future. Despite Trump’s strength in rhetoric, his political position is weaker due to narrow Republican margins, a stronger judiciary, and his aging health. Resistance can be effective through state and local governments, which can either support or challenge his agenda. Citizens must resist hatred and cruelty, rejecting divisiveness while upholding freedom, equality, and tolerance. Active engagement, attention to local politics, and maintaining decency are vital.
