Let's compare Trump's Ukraine policy to Biden's Ukraine policy: It's worse.
Let's compare Trump's Gaza policy to Biden's Gaza policy: At best, it's the same. More likely, it's worse.

Except when they get devastated by hurricanes made increasingly severe by climate change. Seriously, they're an existential threat to Sentinelese civilization.
You are correct to think I'm not fun at parties.
What's wrong with it is it's normalizing Donald Trump. Like, actually pointing at Trump and saying "this is normal." US democracy is on life support, and calling this business-as-usual is like telling people there's nothing to see here while he yanks and tugs on the plug.

They might all belong in prison, but that's like saying a shoplifter is just as bad as a serial killer.
I'm not arguing with you, just pointing out that it's not a simple thing. Most people, maybe all of them, will just take their old job back, or go elsewhere.
I like how they noped out of Florida and back into Georgia.
Blame the unreliable eagles.
You might even call them flighty.
If an economic crash takes the wind out of his would-be dictator sails, it may be a good thing in the long run.
Public sector employment terms can't just be renegotiated on the fly. That used to be part of why they were relatively stable and safe.

Seriously, what the hell is this? How did 7 organisms interbreed in a single generation?

Once again, I am not arguing the morality of what the administration did or what the employees should do in response. Only the practicality. The process for squeezing the government for a non-standard work arrangement will take months and probably involve legal battles. These people have lives to get back to.
