Finally I get what the orange racist meant while saying "Make America Great Again."

It's a goal he may yet achieve.

He actually helped it to come about, by first taking a great country, the United States, and nearly destroying it, making it into a "shithole country," to use his locution, in order to serve his chief financier and owner, Vladmir Putin, so that a man like Joe Biden can come in, clean the country up and, in fact, make it great again.

A twisted path, but the very real one utilized by the ignorant racist orange buffoon.

voters come out in big numbers for the Midterms of 2022 or all will be lost. We have a habit of taking 2 steps forward and 3 steps back. All the trumpers/Biden haters will vote in huge numbers to undo what has been done & started. Let's start now to get the word out about voting in 2022.

I hope one will arise from the ruins, just as the original Republican party, the one that actually opposed the most virulent form of racism ever, rather than seeking to enhance racism, arose, in part, from the racist Know-Nothing Party and the Whigs.

...of some sort was almost inevitable. The awful trajectory of the Republican party was already established. Trump was both a symptom of that, and an accelerant. Clearly that awfulness, in and of itself, has not at all been a barrier to Republicans winning elections.

If Clinton had won in 2016, and then COVID came along on her watch, I sincerely doubt she would have won reelection. She could have led a pandemic response ten times better than the rest of the world, but Republicans, and then the so-called "liberal" media following suit, would have hung every single death around her neck like an albatross.

She'd likely have lost either to Trump having run again, or worse, someone as awful as Trump but smarter and more competent.

Maybe it will turn out to be a sad kind of "luck" that we hit this crisis point with Trump himself instead of with a possibly more dangerous version of Trump.

we will understand how Diaper Don enriched his Crime Syndicate to the tune of Billions with the help of his mentor in the Kremlin.

Putin scored a major victory by wrecking our economy as well as allowing a controllable Pandemic wipe out maybe a million people. And replaced the USA as the leading Economic Power,with China whom he arranged certain Trade Associations.

Plus,Diaper Don know doubt gave up our working informants with in Russia. Diaper Don is nothing more than a modern day PT Barnum who did what ever it took to steal your money.
