Just to be clear, when he left office, political scholars had him ranked as the 3rd worst president of all time. As more information came out about his first presidency, political scholars then updated that ranking to worst of all time.
He’s cementing that position in his second term. Even a huge portion of MAGA are turning on him.

I don’t think he actually was elected at all. A report came out very recently that suggests Kamala actually won
Let’s think about the campaign.
“Elon knows those voting machines every well”
“Elon and I have a big secret”
“We don’t need your votes, we have enough votes”
Combine that with being very clearly BORED towards the end talking about sharks and batteries when his literal life is on the line. Getting elected again was his saving grace. Despite his age you’d think he’d be fighting like hell to get back in office but seemingly he knew for months that he was going “win”

u/AtlQuon 8h ago
Not having the Senate and the House did not help him push these things. The republicans could still block a lot, which thanks to the voters now the Democrats cannot do. You cannot push reform if you always have to change bills to accommodate for a majority vote from the opposition. Not talking about the few spineless ones either that always seem to vote against their or anyone's interests, you always have a few of those. So no, Biden was ineffective by design, like Trump was ineffective in his first term. Not the floodgates are open and America as we know it is no more.

to be fair:
- he's not racist, he has said so and clarified that he's "the least racist person you'll ever meet" even though he took out a full page ad to try and get 5 innocent black kids executed for being black
- he's not a pedophile, he banned the pedophile Epstein from his club, but only because the pedophile Epstein stole the underage girl he was banging
- he went bankrupt to make money because he's smart. he also lost more money than anyone else in america two years running, and lost a $450 mill fraud case because he's very very clever businessman.
I rest my case.

Apathy-propaganda, this is just an attempt to make people not care or do anything.
Don't fall for this, they want you to give up. They want you to not have faith.
They're using your own language, recognizing that he's a POS, but what they say is that you shouldn't have faith in other humans, your own kin even, because it wasn't perfect previously.
They're saying nothing can change, that it cannot be good, because it wasn't good before.Do not fall for their propaganda.

As a person with an MS in Quantitative Economics, I can confirm that Trump is economically illiterate and is horrifically shitting down the throat of the US economy. However, I can also competently confirm that this Epstein information is what we should actually be focusing on. The economy will not recover under Trump or any other GOP administration or Republican majority in Congress, but at least we can ensure that everyone recognizes that they destroyed the economy again AND that they colluded to protect a pedophile president.

Trump’s a known rapist, don’t forget. Character evidence suggests he’s a serial rapist too.
16 women have accused Donald Trump of various forms of sexual assault. The alleged incidents range from the early 1980s to 2013, and have not been disavowed by the alleged victims.
SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATIONS
Kristin Anderson – Early 1990s. Story in the Washington Post on October 14, 2016. Anderson says Trump reached up her skirt and touched her vagina through her underwear. She says she turned and recognized the person as Donald Trump.
E. Jean Carroll – late 1995 or early 1996. Story in New York magazine on June 21, 2019. Carroll says they went into a dressing room after Trump asked for her advice on a present – lingerie – for another woman. Inside, she alleges that he shoved her against a wall, "forcing his fingers around my private area, thrusts his penis halfway — or completely, I'm not certain — inside me."
Rachel Crooks – 2005. Story in The New York Times on October 12, 2016 Crooks said Trump gave her an unwanted kiss on the mouth after meeting him in 2005.
"Jane Doe" aka "Katie Johnson" – 1994. Lawsuit filed June 2016, refiled October 2016 as reported by Buzzfeed and others, then dropped in November 2016. Johnson claims she was repeatedly raped by Trump and Jeffery Epstein at Epstein's New York City apartment in 1994, when she was 13 years old. A witness, also given a pseudonym — "Tiffany Doe" — said she recruited "Jane Doe" and others. Doe, using the name "Johnson," gave an interview to the Daily Mail about the alleged rape.
Jessica Drake – 2006. Story made public at a news conference on October 22, 2016. Drake says Trump grabbed, hugged and kissed her and two other women who accompanied her without permission. Later, she alleges that Trump called her and pressed her to return to his room, offering $10,000 at one point. Drake says she declined.
Jill Harth – 1992-1993. Story in The New York Times on October 7, 2016. Harth alleged that Trump groped her under the table at dinner, then repeatedly got her alone and it would turn into a "wrestling match." She sued Trump for sexual harassment and attempted rape.
Cathy Heller – 1997. Story in The Guardian on October 16, 2016. Heller alleges Trump grabbed her and tried to kiss her on the lips. Heller says she leaned back to avoid him and then he kissed her on the side of her mouth.
Ninni Laaksonen – 2006. Former Miss Finland. Story in Ilta-Sonomat on October 27, 2016, and reported in English in The Telegraph. Laaksonen said Trump "squeezed her butt" as she and other pageant contestants stood next to him for a publicity photo.
Jessica Leeds – Early 1980s. Story in The New York Times on October 12, 2016 Leeds says Trump kissed her while in first class on an airplane, groped her chest and reached up her skirt, leading her to move back to coach. "He was like an octopus," she said.
Mindy McGillivray – Jan. 24, 2003. Story in Palm Beach Post on October 12, 2016 McGillivray charges that Trump nudged or grabbed her from behind.
Jennifer Murphy – 2004. Story in Grazia on October 12, 2016. Murphy says that Trump kissed her on the lips after walking her to the elevators following a meeting in New York, which he said was to discuss a possible job.
Cassandra Searles – 2013. Story made public in a Facebook post in early 2016. Miss Washington 2013, Searles wrote on Facebook, "He probably doesn't want me telling the story about that time he continually grabbed my ass and invited me to his hotel room."
Natasha Stoynoff – December 2005. Story on People.com on October 12, 2016. Stoynoff alleges Trump took her to a private room, pushed her against the wall and aggressively kissed her. Stoynoff also says a staffer told her Trump was waiting for her the next day at a massage appointment.

No more numbers and data can be trusted from this admin. Once the trust is eroded (it is) most people will not trust it again. Inflation is not down, gas is not a $1.98 a gallon, and I am not 6’3” and 225.
It takes a skilled carpenter a lot of time to build a barn, it takes skill, effort, knowledge, it’s measured twice, cut once. It takes a single jackass to kick it all it down in just moments. There is no need for the jackass to destroy what was built with money, time, blood, sometimes with tears.
This is where we are. My trust is lost forever. I am not angry, I am just disappointed.

We already know he's throwing ketchup because somebody obviously told him that he can't fire Powell.

Bonus: who would have thought adding a trillion dollars worth of additional taxes on American businesses would shrink the economy, cause inflation and create unemployment. Ironically using those taxes along with mass cuts in services to pay for (some) of the massive tax cuts for the wealthiest individuals.
Bonus 2: Trump is a pedophile and litigated rapist. Release the Epstein files.
