    Jfc… I guess I owe The Boys an apology. I thought they were laying it on a bit thick with the Homelander=Trump connections, but I guess not.

    Some voters somehow looked this idiot and said ‘nope, no point casting my vote…’

    Bystander effect on a national scale

    If our country can be destroyed by any President, that means that there is no longer sufficient separation of powers, and that our federal government is completely worthless.

    He is so ignorant of his job and real duties that he doesn’t even realize this. He believes it, and he believes that he is righteous. That’s because he’s a narcissist who’s never had to go shopping for groceries, who’s never had to make his own dinner, who’s never had to clean his own house, who’s never had to even work for a living.

    He is completely detached from reality, and him being President shows how rotten our government has become. He could NEVER be elected in anything resembling a functioning Republic.

      Well, to be quite honest, it also shows how rotten our so-called Western civilization has become. This man not only got elected, but millions upon millions of people thought it would be a great idea to reelect him - after Jan 6th and everything.

      And that’s not even an exclusively American problem. Look at Europe. Even with better education and safer social security, way too many people vote for far-right populists.

      Before Corona, I still had hopes for us as a species. Despite all the religious nonsense, the racism, the bigotry, the hate, the wars, everything. I thought sensible people were a safe majority. I thought it takes extraordinary circumstances, the proverbial perfect storm, to plunge a society into chaos.

      Well, I know better now. I’m 49 and with any luck, I’ll have 30 more years on this planet, maybe I get lucky and there will be no wars on my doorstep. I’m utterly, utterly disappointed in mankind, I would almost go as far as to say I root for its demise. I have no kids, I don’t feel like I have a horse in this race anymore anyway.

      And Trump is the epitome of everything wrong with us.

      There never was a sufficient separation of powers. This and the much-vaunted checks and balances, it turns out, only exist if the person in the White House consents to them existing, and consents to being under the rule of law.

    “I can destroy the country” ??? Change to “I am destroying your country, I have no allegiance except to the golden calf.”.

    “I can destroy the trade. I can destroy the country,” Trump said.

    “I’m allowed to impose a foreign destroying embargo, I can embargo, I can do anything I want, but I can’t charge $1.” In a bizarre explanation, Trump said he “was very modest in my ask of other countries”.

    “I didn’t want to do anything that would affect the decision of the court,” he said.

    “I wanted to be a good boy.”

    “I didn’t want to hurt you, but you’ve left me no choice.” He thinks about everything like a violent, abusive rapist. Probably because he’s a violent, abusive rapist.
