No shit. Yeah, guys, he’s a criminal. You had like two times to ban him from office but nooo. You empowered a spoiled brat sociopath.

We really need to change the national motto to “I shit the bed, and I love rolling in it.”

How low can they go??? Playing a game of limbo with the world economy.

Indeed, but they used to be called self-made businessmen who dropped college and started a successful business out of their garage.

Here's 15 things they do that you could start doing today!

(none of the 15 things listed are actual things that helped them become rich, like connections, capital and no reservations about exploiting others for their own gain and copious amounts of confidence - after all, they're the confidence men)

The country was founded by spoiled brat sociopaths. They acted in their own best interests to protect their property rights and lower their own taxes while simultaneously disregarding indigenous people, slaves, and women.

There’s no need. Billionaires are already short selling the country.

You make it sound like it was singlehandedly white people's fault he's back. There was plenty of brown and black people who voted for him too.

Right. But they thought they were “good brown people” I know. My aunt is one of them. She thinks since she’s a good Christian woman who does everything her pastor and husband tell her to do that voting for Trump was a good idea and was only going to hurt bad brown people. I don’t talk to her anymore

They played politics like a sports game and we are all getting boned with the consequences.

Yeah, well, don’t let Congress off the hook. It’s easy to hate Trump. He is a disgusting semi-human. But Congress has the power of the purse. A President can levy a tariff during an emergency and Trump declared a BS emergency that Congress has not challenged. Congress is every bit as guilty as Trump. It’s the oligarchs pulling their strings.

They wouldn't even allow the Senate to hear the witnesses and evidence for impeachment
