Early last week, I was at the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library for its first weekend. At the library itself, despite President Donald Trump inserting himself incongruously into the opening ceremonies, I did not see a single person sporting a Trump-branded clothing item.

The town of Medora, North Dakota, itself was, however, a different story. It wasn’t overwhelming. But for someone who lives in an urban center of a blue state, where even in the ruby red rural areas most people have become sufficiently shamed to shut up about their MAGA tendencies, a single errant MAGA cap is a rarity.

    I didn’t tell you to do anything. I don’t know you.

    But yeah you shouldn’t be cowtowing to a dictator and then blaming his victims. You are not going to experience ICE raids.

    I am telling you now, for the first time, because this is the first time we’ve ever spoken, to stop blaming the victims of fascism for their own oppression. He’s a dictator. It doesn’t matter how hard we vote.
