38. He's always been a petty, vindictive asshole...
Tue Jun 17, 2025, 08:11 AM
Jun 2025

who thinks the bully, mob-boss posture makes
him worthy of being the king of the world.

He IS a Hitler wannabe, but he and his minions
are utterly incompetent and stupid.

They can and will do a lot of harm, but if our nation
rises up against them en masse, I don't think they
would stay in power for long.

I'm surprised they've lasted this long. I would think
that even the rich and powerful who have propped
him up in their own self-interests now realize that
nobody's interests are served now.

This level and kind of destruction is harmful to
everyone, nobody excluded.
