(14,897 posts)Trump is toxic in the extreme. But he's a manifestation of a deeper problem which won't be fixed by him being gone.
I've got no fucking idea how we are going to fix that deeper problem in any reasonable time period.

(12,712 posts)He has been and is a criminal. His connections and history indicate that and Russian mobs are also included in the mix.
It is bad enough that he has made the USA mob territory to conquer and control, but to reelect General Trump is the most dangerous thing Americans could EVER do. It would be a collective insanity.

Trump doesn't know enough about government to be able to surgically remove parts of government that the GOP views as problematic for their handlers. And, yeah...we didn't elect him. If people are allowed to vote, and those votes are counted, the GOP loses, and everyone knows it.
