Mary Trump - Cruelty as Tactic

One of the reasons those of us who’ve been paying attention were devastated by the results of the 2024 election is because we know not only how cruel my uncle and his supporters are, but just how cruel they intend to be. Cruelty may have been the point for Donald, but, on the right, it’s also policy.

In the last two weeks, Donald has made it clear through his cabinet picks that he—and they—intend to cause as much pain as possible to their perceived enemies and to the most vulnerable among us.

His minions and sycophants have clearly gotten the memo, as evidenced by Rep. Nancy Mace’s vile reaction to the trailblazing arrival of Representative-elect Sarah McBride (D-DE), the first transgender woman to serve in Congress.

Seeing an opportunity to get media attention while being gratuitously cruel to a new colleague, Mace crafted a resolution that would prevent McBride from using the women’s bathrooms on Capitol Hill.
