As well as when he made fun of the journalist who was in a wheelchair. I remember seeing that and I thought it was completely over for him, but no.

Honestly, this should’ve been the end of it. No sane country would elect someone that said this as their president

A significant portion of American voters: “Heh, NICE! I wish I was famous.”

The Onion, if they were writing this (instead of it being actual) would have made it better reading, less disgusting.

It really should have been. The “conservatives” are not religious or conservative, they are disgusting. The “conservative” republican party is way WAY too liberal for my tastes. We should start calling republicans the “libs”, because they are.

You sound like someone who still believes a party what doesn’t blab about it’s cruelties, wrongdoing and stupidity is a party that is innocent and good. Haha, good one. Who has been the opponent of trump the first time around in 2016, Hillary Clinton, right? Personally I always welcomed trumps presidency. Thanks to him the whole world can see what a farce our democracies are (and it’s not only the MAGAs I talk about). And as Europeans it enabled us to distance ourselves more easily from the forced western dependency/decadency. I just don’t know what’s better: being a US colony as before or the recent stupidity, having a straight-from-BlackRock-lobbyist as a chancellor… Darn, and that’s one of the reason why people become more and more aggressive while becoming decreasingly tolerant to differing world views…

We are fundamentally broken. It doesn’t matter. It’s been a facade the whole time.
He is america. A racist misogynist bully.
I’m going to blame reconstruction failing. We never corrected the hypocrisy at our core and this is the result.

Amen. Trump is showing the world what America truly is. The rest of the world sees this. Many Americans do not.
And to throw an olive branch, many countries are a Trump away from the same realization.

It’s something innate in humanity. We’re just speedrunning it.

Being an optimist it’s waves throughout humanity and this is merely the most recent one. We are better as a species though still not perfect. My gut tells me we will make it out of this but like many times before the old thinking will need to die.
We are going to look back at the greed rampant today for the mental disease if truly is and address the underlying issue that makes people like Elon or Bezos not only exist but thrive. We will come to the realization that people like that are not normal and we will no longer idolize or encourage such destructive individualism.

Who is “we”? You had some big part in this? Stop blaming yourself and please stop blaming me. The nationalist “we” is garbage.
