21. It looks to me like he's certainly trying to destroy the entire country out of spite

He has no clue what's in the Constitution since he doesn't read, nor does he care. He's running what was the most influential country in the world like it's one of his personal businesses, cheating and conniving, and we know what happened with his businesses, 6 bankruptcies, and the idiotic way he's throwing money around it's a distinct possibility that we'll end up with the same result.

Not to mention, he hasn't kept one campaign promise, like making groceries more affordable, which was a reason that people voted for him. Instead, he has these looney ideas, like his tariffs, which he doesn't understand, but since he considers himself the CEO, he's unwilling to listen to anyone. And it doesn't help that he's surrounded himself with sycophants and the Republicans in Congress are afraid to go against him since they know his penchant for revenge.

I don't know how this governmental debacle is going to turn out, but it's only been a few months into a long four years, he's turned our historical allies into enemies and is dedicated to following an authoritarian playbook that he lied about, saying he'd never heard of it - and no one trusts us anymore which we should have been prepared for since he lies every time he speaks.

Then there's the 34 felonies and his attempt to overthrow the government when he lost in 2020. Wasn't that enough evidence that he was the last person who should be given a second chance??
