Civic Self-Respect is out today from @7StoriesPress. Tune into this week's Ralph Nader Radio Hour where we will be discussing the book and much more.

Another trademark of Lying Stealing Tyrant Trump. His rhetoric to ‘bide time.’ He goes to farm country and says just wait, you’re going to do great, your prices are going to be higher for crops to market. He tells consumers hold on, your gas prices are going to be lower than before the Iran War. Everything is wait and see. Wait and see. As the weeks roll by. He did it in his first term and escaped by running the clock out. He’s trying to do the same thing now. He is a betrayer, first class. Untrustworthy. Untruthworthy. And treacherous. Regardless of red state or blue state Americans. -R

The Democratic Party is beyond inept in using pithy rejoinders to Trump’s slanderous lies. For example, everyday he accuses the Democrats of having stolen the election or stealing the elections presently going on now without any evidence. In other words, they are false. Have you heard the Democratic Party hurl it back on him truthfully? “Trump you are working overtime with your Trumpsters to steal the elections in November?” Trump tells them the exact words they can truthfully use that he uses against them falsely. For example, he calls them “demented", "deranged", "treasonous", "crazy", "low IQ”. They can call him all those words and back it up with evidence. They’ve abandoned the use of sharp political language. For years they haven’t had a slogan to counteract MAGA. The last slogan I recall that the party paid a handsome sum to a consulting firm to think up was Build Back Better—wow, that’s an exciting one. With Trump impeaching himself by the hour in illegal, violent or corrupt act after another, the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic leaders in Congress (@SenSchumer and @RepJeffries) are telling people no no, it’s not timely to mount an impeachment movement, already supported by a majority of American people nearly 60%. No, no, keep letting him take innocent lives, impoverishing more Americans, exposing people to toxic chemicals, risks of infectious diseases and climate violence without preparedness, protection and telling the truth. He has also awarded hundreds of billions of dollars in bloated giveaway contracts to corporations—suppressing solar power and wind power in favor of toxic coal, oil and gas—corporate welfare giveaways, and pursuing his egomaniacal projects from the boondoggle fence on the Mexican border to the vast, garish ballroom in the White House. Let him keep doing all that say the Democrats, because now is not the time. These politicians are both cowardly and corrupt and tens of millions of Americans who despise Trump don’t believe the Democrats. Give the head of the @DNC a piece of your mind—he is @kenmartin73. -R

The uncritical media portrays the Trumpsters' partisan and racial redistricting as if the result is inevitable, ie. more Trump representatives being elected. It’s not inevitable at all if the Democrats pursue a strategy that appeals to both liberal and conservative workers/families like authentically advancing a higher federal minimum wage—presently frozen at $7.25 an hour—universal health care, taxing the grossly undertaxed super-rich and mega corporations, a full child tax credit, a public works repairing America in every community, and so on. They could overcome the tilts in the redistricting. -R

The New York Times headline “Trump Cuts Off Life Necessities for Immigrants — Even Legal Residents — Forcing Exits by Severing Access to Child Care, Jobs and Housing” revealed what Trump is all about when it comes to immigrants, documented or undocumented—BIGOTRY, CRUELTY AND BEING AN OUTLAW ENFORCER. Recall Trumps “s—hole countries” comment and his wish for more immigrants from countries like Norway. What Trump doesn’t want you to recall is having undocumented workers serving him at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf course, or his early exploitation of hundreds of undocumented Polish workers on his construction site in New York. Also, he’d rather you not hear about what people coming from these brown and black countries do for America—such as harvest our crops, clean up after us, take care of our elderly, serve as nannies for affluent Americans and do health care and other jobs, like working in meat and chicken processing plants under conditions considered intolerable by the established labor force. Just another awareness by the American people, a growing majority of whom want him IMPEACHED AND REMOVED FROM OFFICE. TRUMP’S TYRANNY IS GOING TO GET WORSE, MUCH WORSE FOR AMERICA AND ABROAD. UNLESS HE IS FIRED! -R

Thank you @democracynow for having me on to explain what happened during my family’s trial against Boeing. There’s still no real corporate accountability. Right after the verdict, Boeing filed a motion to set it aside. They want to roll it back.
