8) that he will not willingly or peacefully give up power when his term ends. Didn’t matter to him that he lost 4 yrs ago, why will it matter to him that he’s term limited? 9) that he is more equipped to implement his authoritarian tendencies, and that the people surrounding him will enable it. There’s the JD Vance quote that went something along the lines of “the chief justice has made his ruling, now let him enforce it.” Wild stuff, can’t believe it wasn’t (isn’t?) a bigger deal.

To be sure it’s hard at times, the screaming and crying and tantrums. But then they fall asleep holding your hand and you stare at the tiny nail on their pinky and wonder how it’s possible that something so perfect exists

Me, a brand new parent: “I will never lie to my kids. Never ever.” Me, a toddler parent, lying all the time: “We can’t hold the big heavy watermelon because it’s sleeping. We can’t hold the coffee mug because it’s sleeping. We also can’t hold the golf club right now because it’s sleeping.”

Just completed. One of the best, most heart-wrenching books I’ve ever read. Highly recommend!
