Excellent summation of a soulless putrid sack of excrement posing as a human.

This is profound - it describes Trump exactly - he doesn’t know these skills - but was already showing signs of them much earlier on - and as for the consequence’s - they will fall on everyday ordinary American people - because he has never really faced a consequence, ever.

And herein you have described perfectly the attraction he holds over the roughly third of this American population; they ENVY him. Not his wealth or power or advantage or place in line, they worship his innate ability to be untouched and unchanged by human concern. He is everything they wish to be, whether consciously or unconsciously, unmitigated and unrestrained power. A modern version of Caligula, sadistic, perverted and possessed of unbridled ambition, the type every small minded and weak willed man has been attracted to since time immemorial. It is my honest desire that he see the same fate, but I fear he will be replaced as long as there are souls who wish for his presence

I'd bet he's never cleaned a toilet either. That's one way I measure who gets my vote. If you've never cleaned a toilet you'll never ever get my vote. AOC 2028
