I owe my trump supporting acquaintances an apology

from facebook.


I’ve been critical of his presidency since 2016, & am still exhausted from the experience. But to be fair, President Trump didnt do much, other than when he incited an insurrection against the government, mismanaged a pandemic that killed nearly half a million Americans, separated children from their families, lost those children in the bureaucracy, tear-gassed peaceful protesters on Lafayette Square so he could hold a photo op holding a Bible in front of a church, tried to block all Muslims from entering the country, got impeached, got impeached again, had the worst jobs record of any president in modern history, pressured Ukraine to dig dirt on Joe Biden, fired the FBI director for investigating his ties to Russia, bragged about firing the FBI director on TV, took Vladimir Putin’s word over the US intelligence community, diverted military funding to build his wall, caused the longest government shutdown in US history, called Black Lives Matter a “symbol of hate,” lied nearly 30,000 times, banned transgender people from serving in the military, ejected reporters from

I gave up about 4 lines in. I give up easily these days, short posts are hard enough for me to read.

I think it was a list of all the bullshit TFG said and did during his 4 years of misrule via fiat (EO), but I couldn't swear to it.

We all remember enough of what he did not to want more of it.

I offer no apologies to his supporters, especially current ones. They must love evil.
