This current administration is nothing but a bunch of losers that don’t know anything about their job and are total racists

I do believe they are just the disruptive students in school that swore they could do a better job than the teacher. Usually the same people that would smack a bee hive despite you warning them not to, and justifying it because they didn't know what would happen, how could you possibly know.

It's just oppositional defiant disorder run amok. They would normally just be sociopaths, but because they are stupid sociopaths that have been deprived of the meaning of a lot of life experiences, including those that lead to the development of the Theory of Mind, they have nothing to offer in opposition to any other party influencing their life, so they operate on straight defiance. If someone is so bold enough to presume they are smarter than you, the best thing to do is prove the opposite of what they say is true. They cannot know something you do not, so you do it. If everything turns out fine you just proved them wrong. And if something does go wrong then it must have been due to unforeseen circumstances and not because the other person was right. They demand in every interaction that you prove a negative and that if they haven't experienced it, it cannot happen any other way than how they foresee, and since they lack that ability they just go in the opposite direction than what is input.
