Stop saying that you are 'alt left'. The only people who were alt left

Were the french people guillotining the rich folks.

As a society we have elements who are closer to the extreme right than we do who are closer to the extreme left.

Anything to the contrary is just alt-facts.

Alt-Left will stick to Antifa, and they'll never shake it.

but there are different kinds of Intelligence.

Don't dismiss his talents. He is a cunning and shameless bully born to great wealth, with zero ethics, but an innate nose for publicity and cameras. He's poised and experienced on camera, and relatively telegenic. He knows Gaslighting techniques backwards and forwards.

It's served him well; he's President and the rest of the planet is miserable.
