I recall another pretty good description of of the Gangrenous Boil on the Ass of Humanity:

It's as if someone scraped all that is bad about America off a gas station's restroom floor, stuffed it into a rancid sausage skin, and taught it to make noises with its face.

I'm paraphrasing something I think I read here a few years ago. I would love it if he had all the contemptuous remarks made about him read over a loudspeaker until he had an aneurysm and his head exploded.

It isn't Trump as a person (the world is full of Trump-like creeps), but as a mirror of the worst of us. If it hadn't been Trump, eventually it would have been someone else.

Yes, we're a country full of mung-brains, but I think the TV exposure allowed this absolute idiot to dominate my every waking fucking minute. Some people used to watch his "show", I surmise.

I don't know if Trump would have been so successful as a politician without the reality TV exposure. We have millions of brainless Americans who watch reality TV on a daily basis and sadly, they believe what they're viewing IS reality. Just like they believe Fox News is actual "news".

I've never watched The Apprentice and I am truly surprised that it was so successful. The few clips I've seen look absolutely awful and Trump looks so fake.

to empower a oriental despot. These are leading Democratic voices. We must be in backwards world

Secretary of State Madeleine Albright saying giving China favorite nation trading status would be one-sided trade deal for America. That was a bigger lie than the tens of thousands of Grump's lies put together. Americans were stunned. The Chinese must have rolled their eyes if not rolling around on the floor laughing.

A link could be turned into a small QR code, printed on small stickers, and strategically left behind in places where it looks simply like an item cataloging record.

Only capitalism would have allowed this bloated obscenity to be in control of so much wealth and then let him run a nation.

Only the oligarchs, billionaires and filthy-rich capitalist could have placed this carcass, this American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit, at the top of our democracy. It took sleazy scum like Zuckerberg, Bezos, Gates and the Google billionaires to give us this diseased distillation and put him in charge.

Karl Marx predicted this would happen in a capitalist economy. Too bad no one listened.
