    How did this imbecile ever become anything, let alone allowed to ‘run’ a country…twice? TWICE!!!
    He’s a fucking village idiot in need of a village, an obvious traitor, an unregistered child rapist, a convicted criminal AND rapist. And yet he’s seen no consequences plus been president of the us twice.
    Fuck sake, I just can not understand it. It’s unfathomable.

      If that’s the chosen leader of all those fucking MAGA troglodytes, think of what that says about them. Following a spoiled petulant toddler brained moron rapist grifter.

      There is no more pathetic person on this earth than a Drumpf supporter.

      I used to have “imposter syndrome”, where I would always feel like I am just pretending to be a qualified and knowledgeable individual, and that at any moment someone would unmask me as a fraud, even if I wasn’t and had no reason to feel that way.

      Then Trump got elected and suddenly I was cured. If that moron can get elected to the most important job in the country, whatever I’m doing is small potatoes. You can be an incompetent fool and still have people fall over themselves to defend you if you have confidence and strut around with an air of legitimacy.

      By the time he was elected a second time, I no longer believed in either humanity or the concept of being “unqualified”.

      Let him be an inspiration. Chase your dreams. If the village idiot can successfully become POTUS, you can do whatever you set your mind to.

      Americans are, in general, far dumber than Trump.

      You should look at social media and see what the algorithm shows that present only “the good part” of Trump while brushing aside the bad parts. That is, if you are willing to go down that rabbit hole.

      I know people who acknowledges the bad aspects of Trump but also says “some of the things he says make sense.” I wonder what those are specifically. My guess is that depending on what you value, those values are supposedly embodied in Trump, while the negatives aren’t shown by algorithm. Conversely, those who don’t like Trump only see the bad sides and little to no good. Not that it’s a criticism of the latter, Trump objectively did more harm than good, kinda like Hitler who still “did some good things”. What is lost is nuance on understanding why people like or dislike a politician, whether because of personal values or propaganda have convinced them.

      He was born just rich enough to be highly visible and was recognized by real power as a useful idiot and put to the task of dismantling the united states, and there’s a good chance that Trump doesn’t even realize that.

      It has everything to do with how you used ‘run’ to describe it. Trump is a necessary figurehead and lightning rod of controversy that strengthens the oligarchy.
