You forgot Trump’s most egregious statement in response to the governor saying that Maine will comply with Star and federal law. He said: “We are the law.”

More elected state leaders need to stand up to him. Perhaps that will encourage more people to join the resistance.

A single bully is not so scary when someone stands up to them.

As evidenced by Governor Mills!

Do not show fear, look them in the eye and say NO.

Trump is a convicted felon and thanks to the Supreme Court they allowed him to be lawless. Way to Go John Roberts. Yes you will be remembered as the despicable Judge

Taney from long ago.
