I'm not far from Minneapolis and I am beyond horrified! I can not believe what this country has become under Trump.

I hope this murder is a wake up call to the people who did support him,
Nothing seems to wake them up.
Unfortunately, none of this is uniquely evil. Trump is just the latest in a long succession of escalating tyranny, and worse at the PR necessary to sell it to the public.
That's the one silver lining here. His popularity is terrible. Usually Tyrants are at least popular in the beginning. I suppose he was too, but only for about a month, until he started allowing Elon to dismantle the government, then his popularity started to fall. Word keeps leaking out that most non-MAGA Republicans in Congress are also aghast at what he is doing, but they are terrified of crossing him, so they fall in line. I can't imagine this will continue.
Thomas Massie is one of the few Republicans with testicular fortitude, and the MAGA machine is being used against him relentlessly despite his actually doing what MAGA pretended it cared about: pushing for smaller government, accountability, Epstein transparency, and fiscal responsibility.
Me too, all counts @melinda010100. I like about 20 minutes from the city. It's too real, too close to home, and so heartbreaking.
I do hope this is the turning point.
I guess we have to be the people who can turn this thing around. Keep believing in all the kind, sensible, caring people. There are a lot of us
