    Jesus Christ on a cracker! “Panama canal should’ve never been built”, “economic security”. How, HOW, did this sundowner retirement home escapee convince people, so many people, to vote for him? He can’t string along a coherent sentence. I don’t understand it. It’s baffling. Anyone who listens to his rambling, imagination-filled fish stories should be able to tell that he’s not well, lying to your face, and generally shouldn’t be allowed to be in charge of a side-of-the-road lemonade stand, much less the president of the states.

      It’s because far more people than you realized are within the goldilocks zone of the necessary ratios of ignorant/selfish/hateful to allow or even wish for someone exactly like this.

      It’s a fucking depressing realization. Ask me how I know.
