u/IJustLoggedInToSay- Illinois 8d ago

There's no way in the nine hells that Trump would ever figure this out. There are scads of lawyers and corporate interests who have been aggressively working against America for a long time.

In retrospect, it should have been obvious by them pointing at everyday Americans and accusing them of being "radicals who hate America." Oh, you want to protest police violence? You're a radical who hates America! What's this I'm doing with a bic lighter and the Constitution, you ask? Don't worry about it, I assure you it's very patriotic.

“Trump” is a name for the cadre of people that are interested in advancing all of this agenda. He can’t figure out how to change his shit-filled diaper.

This is how refinement works. They learned from Nixon’s presidency, W’s and Trump I.
