oh cum on, compared to our current Junta Trump at least tried to do what he thought was best for his country. himself and his cronies.
TFTFY
WARNING: Political SoapBox Time Saskia... do you really believe that?
Setting aside the fact he's an actual, honest-to-whatever-god-you-may-believe-in confirmed KGB asset... The actual
Manchurian Candidate; Herr Drumphh is literally nothing more than a small-time lowlife gangster who inherited his father's criminal empire and ran it into the ground. He is a pathological liar, misogynist, racist, rapist, career felon who has turned multimillion-dollar
Conspiracy to Commit Fraud into a lifestyle. He owes every one of his "family" connections more than he's worth; if he hadn't fallen into the position of being installed into the Presidency against the will of the American People, those whom he owes would literally have gutted him like a fish.
The only thing that saved his worthless sack of shit ass is the fact that the overweening corruption of the GOP-owned Congress has grown so brazen that they needed a flaming sack of shit the size of The Oval Office to distract the attention of the marching morons from them as they systematically dismantle The Constitution and steal everything that Bush & Cheney missed.
His job was never to be President; it was to be as audaciously, conspicuously villainous as possible.
They literally couldn't have stayed in power with anyone less despicable in the White House; their own villainy has become so obvious. When pressed about the obvious gerrymandering and voter suppression being openly engaged within GOP-held states, he openly stated in public (because he can't keep his damn fool mouth shut) that if they didn't, not a single Republican would ever be elected again. Let that sink in for a second.
He's the burning bag of dogshit these thieves put on the front porch so that while we're busy stamping it out, they can lock us all out of the house and steal EVERYTHING.
And it is
still working.
He is the symptom, not the disease. THAT is what I ran away from... because it is only going to get worse with the Supreme Court he filled full of known corporate lobbyists. Every appointee he placed in the American Government was done so as the command of his owners to destroy any remaining opposition bureaucracy which might actually work for the American people instead of helping him and his cronies loot the place.
This has all happened before; a century ago almost to the day. I doubt the USA will be lucky enough to have another FDR emerge just in the nick of time to save them, tho.
And this is all fact, not opinion. History will look down on these years as
The Dark Ages of the American Empire, with the same dismay as we do the preceding Dark Ages of all of Europe and Britain. If the human race survives long enough for there to be such history written.
