What are your top 5 most egregious FG acts?

Russian Ambassador in Oval Office

Firing Comey

Meeting off the record with Putin

The Big Lie

There are just so many you could go on for hours.

That's when aides were polishing up their resumes!

This is going to take awhile.

So many choices.

bad stuff amid just plain shitty stuff.

Just flashed in my mind - his ridicule if physically challenged reporter...

Mostly people that believed it. They trusted him, instead of science, They died.

even get a slap. I watched when House committee announced conclusion that he purposely hid Covid and PPE and then story died before prime time. BTW supposedly can't attribute ALL deaths to him. Supposedly 140k. Sorry probably said that 140k times

Quite a compendium from which to choose.

I have zero interest in reliving it, even in thought.

We are playing right into his hand ?

I had some MAGA dipshit try to argue with me that it was a peaceful protest and that they were setup by the FBI.

What kind of peaceful protest involves bringing semi automatic weapons and zip lines and erecting makeshift gallows and using Congressional offices as toilets? That isn't my definition of a peaceful protest.

at risk. And CAPITOL POLICE! Total disregard for human life.

Basically everything Jared and Ivanka did for 4 years was an abuse of office. The grifting and emoluments (booking events at his hotels and resorts) amounted to taking bribes from foreign officials. Appointing unqualified people to ambassadorships and cabinet posts, simply because they made campaign donations - that was repulsive. His later appointments were people whose only qualification was groveling at Chump's feet (or worse). Abuse and mismanagement of the Secret Service, abuse and mismanagement of the Joint Chiefs and the intelligence organizations. His groveling to foreign dictators and tyrants.

However I agree with previous posters that his single worst offense was his failure to act in time for the Covid pandemic... His failure to call for the lockdown quarantine, and his failure to provide the PPP & vaccines that were essential for the cities and states that were hit the earliest and the hardest. (For political revenge and no other reason.)

Murdered over 1 mil Americans and other heinous pandemic crimes. Nothing else compares to that. And then your two… then jan 6 plus the whole classified documents etc. it’s hard to pick when someone has committed so many awful crimes…there are so many more…I’m not going to list all of them. One would be, and I think this is a very serious one, the constant attempt to change a democracy into fascism by constantly mentally assaulting everybody with his crap whether it be via tweet or other means.which includes inciting violence. He was inciting violence in his Nazi campaign rallies and should’ve been arrested then, at the very least prohibited from running for office. This country has no standards, no real standards, for who can run for office.

The mere using of low infos as like his own personal army I think of J6 and how he had zero regard for his own supporters ( however low we think of them). And how he constantly used them to garner personal wealth.

I have 3 that I totally loathe him for.

Covid denial that killed so many Americans, including my brother and an uncle.

Kidnapping children at the southern border and caging both children and adults for seeking asylum.

Planning and fomenting sedition to overthrow an elected government and make himself permanent dictator.

1. Covid denial, mismanagement/theft of PPE and other supplies, and subsequent death of one million Americans

2. January 6, with all that entails

3. Collusion with Russia/Putin

4. The Big Lie and the million other lies he told, undermining the concept of truth

5. Undermining Government institutions by hiring liars, sycophants, incompetents, and traitors

When reviewed in total they mainly fall into 2 categories.

The blackmailing of Ukraine, covid denial and the insurrection are at the top of the list of category 1: Keep being the president no matter what. Many of the lies and machinations with the DOJ serve this purpose.

Separating kids from their parents at the border and taking the side of Nazis after Charlottesville were the big ones in category 2: Foment racism from the office of the presidency. His reaction to the Black Lives Matter protests and Lafayette Square are included. In his twisted mind, some of this may cross over with his desire to be re-elected or just say he was.

1) 1/6
2) 1/6
3) 1/6
4) 1/6
5) 1/6

The former President did a lot of shitty stuff, taking help from our enemies to win an election, sharing Intel with our enemies, regularly profiting off his office, hatch act violations, emolument clause violations, playing foostsie and worse with violent dictators, attacking judges, locking up children in cages, separating family’s, kidnapping children and deporting parents, ignoring norms, breaking laws, but to me, the worst was as the president of the US, he wound people up and sent them to the Capitol in a violent insurrection. The Article 2 Branch supporting the attack on the article 1 branch.

And so far got away with, and has nerve to bat her away like a fly.

the things he did to try to gut democracy and ignoring the COVID pandemic are at the top of the list. January 6 insurrection, the big lie/refusing to concede and denying that COVID was a big deal are my top 3. So many others to choose from. For your thread, I will pick 2 more - the Trump tax cuts for the rich and installing 3 RW Supreme Court justices.
