The racists in America were and are so threatened by Obama that they elected the worst human being on the planet - the first convicted felon elected president.
Thats the indisputable truth.

A criminal running the "justice" department is a helluva story, but our morderm propagandistic media would rather covers his latest lies, boasts, and insults, as they have done for over a decade now.

They have no morals or empathy, the only constraint is the amount of blowback they get. And as always, they blame the coffee boy.

(14,268 posts)I think the next President should have a special phone with a biometric lock so that the people of the world know, for a fact ,who is tweeting garbage.
This asshole has the nuke codes. Will one of his idiot staff members threaten nuclear war on the President's phone?
This is chaos.

We should never have let up. We were well into the 2024 campaign at the time of the verdict. But no. Sleepy Joe. Crooked Joe. And all the other names he called everyone else, & we couldn't even attach a totally truthful one to him.

(56,069 posts)If they get "too radical" the media either won't have them on or will label them as radical or somehow punish them for not staying in their designated lane.
Or maybe it's their large donors who don't want to rock the boat.
Honestly I think pretty much all democratic politicians would love raising hell if they could. Something or someone is holding them back.

(40,802 posts)Our electoral process is a giant for-profit industry & the ones who can change it are a subset of the ones who benefit from it. It's a wretched situation & that old bumper sticker is now 100% true: We have the best democracy money can buy.

(107,956 posts)I truly believe that was the nexus point where America could have done the right thing and silenced the gun nuts. Because Sandy Hook should have ended the gun debate for good. But nope, that worthless fucking asshole used it as an excuse to sell more guns than at any point in history. And now things are worse than ever. Fuck Alex Jones, may he rot in the hottest circle of hell.

(15,383 posts)somehow worse because they just couldn't bring themselves to vote for a woman of color. A pretty sick fucking country.
I mean, Harris would have been fine, quite competent, and would have surrounded herself with people who actually know their shit as opposed to know-nothing sycophants and nazi ideologues like Miller, Bannon, Bovino and all the rest of these assholes.

(114,501 posts)have been worse than Fatso is but he's an old man and he probably won't have enough time to catch up to them.
However, he's definitely the worst ever to have occupied the White House, to the point I think we need to consider tearing it down the rest of the way and rebuilding it to resemble the original be natural brick and white trimmed Georgian structure, but with modern construction methods, adapting it to current nees rather than 18th century needs.
We have had some miserably bad presidents before--Andrew Jackson, Polk, Buchanan, Nixon, Reagan---but even they had some respect for the country. This guy thinks he's a monarch, appointed by gawd and given ownership of everything and every one in the western hemisphere. That is what makes him the worst of the worst.

(5,434 posts)When Civil Rights happened, the racist had to go underground because it was no longer accepted in society. Then when a black man had the audacity to become the leader of the county, how dare he think he was equal or even above white people. It was too much and the pus started to build up under the scab that had hidden the infection of racism. Then along came trump and ripped the scap off and the pus exploded into the open. And now the country has been left with not only cleaning up the pus but also trying to find a medicine to cure the infection itself.

Coffin for one, back under their rocks for the others.
Some major healing of the reputation of the USA in overseas countries is needed, and it will take time and effort.
For a while others have been asking . . . USA, how did you let this happen?
