Same people who still use pagers, maybe🤷🏿
@theatlantic.com knows how to stand up to the bully...
The country’s most powerful institutions are bowing to Trump.
The president has used a strongman playbook to bring universities, news organizations and law firms to heel.

Can't wait😡

Do not let Trump gaslight you into believing he's all powerful - he's not 👇
