Donald Trump does not care how he leaves this country.

He is not only financially bankrupting us with tax cuts for the wealthy and no way to pay for them. He is destroying the National Park system. Our national legacy for future generations. Teddy Roosevelt is rolling over in his grave right now.

all other things are secondary. People are tertiary.

9. Donald is a convicted rapist with a deep seated sadistic hatred for people, all people, the American people.

MAGATs - Donald does not care about you. He hates you. He hates your kids & their future. He uses you, your family, and their future. He enjoys the suffering of others, especially if it benefits him financially, when he gets the best "of the deal". Everything is transactional with him.

MAGAT's - you've seen evil people like him before: On Dateline, Forensic Files, the history of the Mob, Charles Manson, Jim Jones, etc. He is what the Bible details what the Antichrist is: A man of lawlessness and sin.

Do they leave him more wealthy?

Do they put him on Mt Rushmore?

Do they continue to kiss his ass?

Donald Trump, is he doing the bidding of Putin/Russia
Or
Is he doing the bidding of the American Oligarchs?

Regardless, he has damaged the nation in some ways as much as the Civil War.

But, least we forget - it is also his enablers and MAGA that provided him with the platform to do the damage he is doing.

SO, whenever you encounter a MAGA, thank them for the state of our Nation. And when the cuts to Medicaid start happening, hospitals close and other terrible things - just give them your thoughts and prayers.

underwater, less trustworthy, more patriarchical, more violent, more lawless, fewer allies, less just, more vulnerable, more swampy, less competent, less diverse, less experience throughout fed govt, less well-educated. It would be hard to argue otherwise outside of Fox News and CNN's Jennings.

Easy case to make, yet somehow MSM and pundits and even elected officials can only deal with one mind-numbing outrage at a time and even then sane-washing what is really happening everywhere all at once.
