    We don’t really deserve it. Trump’s first term could arguably be excused - maybe he wasn’t going to be as awful as people said.

    The second and third time we knew exactly what we were asking for. There’s really no benefit of the doubt to give on time 2 and 3.

      Trump did heaps of terrible shit before and during his first presidency. The algorithmic internet and the laziness of mainstream media to report social media trends as news, instead of doing real journalism, are basically why we’re here.

        The only positive thing to come out of the Trump presidency is that he’s fully shown a light on just how broken our system is.

        From all of mass media being captured propaganda pieces, to the checks and balances basically meaning nothing if a few of the people at the top are corrupt. To our justice system that’s basically just partisan hacks that would rather prosecute you for a parking ticket than a pedophile rapist.
