"He is working through this enemies list every day, prioritizing political retribution and grievance, and again, working an enemies list instead of a to-do list, Pressley said."
"I mean, his to-do list, I think, just says: golf, attack Black women, attack enemies, alienate our allies, and continue to create crushing hurt for working families."
"Again, these are the consistent actions of someone moving actively towards an authoritarian state, which just means to bully, control, and intimidate, Presley said. But when you create a state of terror, we are all less safe now."
Donald Trump is portrayed as fixated on an enemies list and prioritizing political retribution above routine governing duties. The indictment of James Comey intensified targeting of political rivals and shifted focus away from typical agenda items. Reported priorities include golf, attacks on Black women, alienation of allies, and policies that create severe harm for working families. The administration has escalated anti-Black actions, including the firing of more than a dozen FBI agents who knelt in support of George Floyd. Deployment of National Guard and federal troops to cities like Portland is characterized as militarization and occupation, raising concerns about authoritarian tactics and public safety.
