"Trump himself scares me much less than watching half the country and "Republican" elites follow him off the democratic cliff. Masked, unmarked "law enforcement" throwing people in the back of unmarked vans? Totally fine. Putting Marines in the street to threaten non-violent protestors? Totally fine. Foreign countries and wealthy individuals buying US Support by giving Trump money via his personal coin? Totally fine. A president fundamentally not understanding the difference between unfair trade practices and mere imbalances leading him to put tariffs on islands full of penguins? Makes sense to me! Using government power to blackmail law firms and media to treat him nicely and do him personal favors? Of course! Deporting legal immigrants to 3rd countries where they may disappear from the system? Serves them right for living in our country, contributing to their communities, paying taxes, etc. That's what they get for being from somewhere else. Putting people with no real expertise in charge of our most powerful institutions because they're personally loyal to the president? How else could it work?
Yeah, he's an amoral, narcissistic, sadistic menace. But there's a huge swath of the country that isn't just OK with this form of dishonest, bullying, inhumane, governance, but is reveling in it. That scares me. "
Surely, we agree, don't we?
Unfortunately, the character of our Country has digressed over the past few years. Trump is obviously a part of the problem as he is someone who feels the need to divide, although he may have learned some of this from the Democrats who have also been guilty of this, but not to the extreme that the Trump party is now doing. We have a whole lot more racists, misogynists, homophobes, anti-semites, etc. who feel empowered to freely speak their minds without the fear of being chastised. Instead things such as diversity, inclusion and equity are considered to be bad, well they are if you are white, especially a white male.
