Clearly Trump hopes to bully Minnesota into submission. This is obviously a lie, just like "illegal immigrants" was a lie.

The larger question is why would a Minnesota voter, any voter, vote for Trump or any of his enablers ever again? We've all been told time and again that there's a rule of law, nobody above it, that the US has a federal system, that were all really citizens of a state, and that Congress allocates a budget, and all the executive branch does is implement the budget. Oh yeah, also there's checks and balances.

None of that is in evidence here. None. You can be arbitrarily punished and tax money taken away on the whim of one man. What should other Dem states like Colorado (prosecuted Tina Peterson, tried to take Trump off the primary's ballot) think and do here?

And those poor conservatives! Trump really pantsed all those small government, personal responsibility marks.
