Rank amateurs who (at the moment) have power ONLY due to their greater breathing body-count. At most, only 1/3 of Americans back these assholes right now.

Their grip on power is temporary. The task is to hinder them at the control panel until they can be voted out. Or dragged out by law enforcement. Fortunately for the country, they've alienated too many enforcers to have a lock in that area.
