    He showcased that our forefathers assumed a person running for president was serving out of duty or loyalty. That they are thinking about the greater good.

    And Mr. Trump reminded us that shitty human beings do exist. That 95% of people want to do good for others. What “good” means is in the eyes of the beholder.

    But that 5%, the percentage that only cares about themselves? They truly exist. And thank you Trump for reminding us that pieces of shit like you need to be stamped out.

    While he set race relations back 30 years, and antivaxed his base killing millions extra, and shared nuclear defense secrets with his international “friends”, he could have been a lot worse if he had his shit together.

    There could have been a real civil war, he could have unleashed worse executive orders, he could have pardoned and helped his followers who went to jail for him and made him a true hero for the base. He was inches from making the moderate right go, you know, he’s not so bad, while pummeling non Christian non white people into the dirt and labeling them enemies.

    If someone picks up his playbook, follows his rhetoric, and actually manages to present as nice and valiant to his base… The US is fucked.

      In that movie, he tells Kevin to go down the hall and to the left. Kevin turns right and reaches his destination. Trump had one line, and it was a lie.

    The idiots, Racist, and Fascists were finally blatant enough during 45’s Administration that the enlightened Centrists could no longer deny what was happening.

    I definitely vote for Democrats in recent elections, but before around 2008 (so basically before the Tea Party) I didn’t.

    Trump did the first criminal justice reform, that was good. But it’s incomplete.
