(9,056 posts)regarding Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. Honestly the list of horrible,despicable things he did in 4 years is astonishing. Demeaning and belittling refugees, demeaning a Gold Star family, taking bribes by way of his properties, incredible corruption/financial abuse by his appointees while in office, separating immigrant/refugee children from their families while knowing they had no system to track them, extortion of leaders of allied countries, telling an obvious record number of lies, issuing pardons to cronies who obviously were covering for him, placing obviously unqualified people in administrative positions and as judges, putting through massive tax cuts for the rich to benefit himself and cronies and holding a party to celebrate the passing of the cuts, purposely hampering the administration of the ACA as well as trying to scuttle it entirely while having absolutely no replacement plan, openly engaging in witness tampering by dangling pardons and issuing threats, openly encouraging white supremacists, rolling back environmental regulations, refusing to release his tax returns, the Muslim ban, publicly siding with Putin against our own intelligence folks, withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, suggesting vaccines cause autism, cutting the pandemic early warning system, revealing classified information about an ally to the Russians, accusing people of treason because they did not applaud his State of the Union speech, forcing the longest government shutdown in history, failing to ever submit an infrastructure plan while bitching about the infrastructure constantly, rampant nepotism, planning to sow doubt about election results in order to subvert the results, demanding elections officials "find" votes for him, planning (along with operatives and extremist groups) to obstruct the peaceful transfer of power by pressuring Pence to not certify the Biden election and organizing/inciting a mob to engage in a violent insurrection attempt and then failing to make a public statement demanding the violent overthrow attempt be stopped and then finally after several hours of mayhem injury and death he told the insurrectionists that he loved them. Finally there is certainly more that could be added to the list.
