9. That performance breaks my heart even today.

It breaks my heart that we could have had an excellent president, and the world and our country would be in far better shape today. I have no doubt that many thousands of US citizens would be alive today because Hillary would have taken the pandemic seriously and reacted to save lives, which Trump did not. And we most likely would not be facing the nightmare we face today with the possibility of another Trump term because he would not have had the opportunity to build his MAGA cult and to turn the Republican Party into the destructive organization it is today. We would still have Roe as law because she would have appointed sane, experienced judges to the SC. We are suffering a country on the brink because Trump gained the power to now try to overturn democracy itself.
