The trump era is nearing it's end.

@jdwickie
The trump era is nearing it’s end. His message of hate, racism & police brutality is being drowned out by millions of voices, united in protest. Lifelong republicans are turning their backs on him. We are getting close.

Trump is a symptom, less a cause. I am worried that Trump is an unskilled politician that has shown others who may be much better at how to manipulate the electorate.

Doesn't read, doesn't understand, doesn't comprehend, and can't develop much less follow any strategy. Imagine if he could/had.

Trump had no track record in public office before 2016, he was a blank slate for most voters. Trump was elected because enough voters believed his lies, bought into his empty promises and were mesmerized by his ability to peddle hate and resentment. Those are the skills of a consumate demagogue and con man. That was then, this is now. Hopefully, enough voters have learned their lesson.

His usefulness has become a liability on many levels. His base is shit in the eyes of the Republicans also. The returns on him are diminishing rapidly.

The election was rigged-- by whomever-- and it will happen again.

I hope I'm wrong but the fact that this grotesque scum-of-the-earth was "elected" to the highest office in the land speaks volumes. If it happened before, it can surely happen again. Especially since our country is no longer a democracy-- need I say more?

I don't have to have anybody's validation for my own opinions and experience.


***** By the way, over half of the thread and the O.P. mention SHITLER, so he's the umbrella.

I do think it is correct but I fear we have significant turmoil between now and that new day.
