22. Oh yes, far worse than 2016

In 2016, sane reasonable people were quite certain that Trump was not qualified to be president, but in 2024 we all knew beyond a doubt that he would be a horrible president. He'd already shown us.

There is something seriously wrong with tens of millions of voters who thought he deserved a second chance and that he was more qualified than Kamala Harris. Better a vile, corrupt white man evidently, than a highly qualified woman. Can't blame racism, as the country already voted for a black man twice. This country still has serious problems with women in positions of power.
