This all started before Trump. If people are willing to be honest about it.
Obama's class warfare approach to politics and governing had a lot to do with todays issues. Hell anyone who disagreed with Obama was tabled a racist. Then you had Hillary and company. Her followers are the ones who started the birther movement.

Getting back to the text of the Constitution, is radical and extreme from the fascist direction the nation has been on since FDR.

Those who voted for him are 100% responsible, they KNEW what he was when they voted...
I call them “The Gullibles.” They believe every word he says.

I agree with your sentiment, but it was clear on the campaign trail that this is the kind of guy he was. Okay, maybe we didn't expect him to be quite so shamelessly bad. But, still, it shouldn't be a surprise.

Yeah, their crazy, just look at this:

Right-wing violence has 'accelerated' in the US since Trump took office

The report found that 92 out of 263 incidents of domestic terrorism between 2010 and the end of 2017 were committed by right-wing attackers, constituting a third of all incidents. Meanwhile, Islamist terrorists committed 38 attacks while left-wing attackers were responsible for 34 incidents.

Oh wait. That doesn't prove your point at all.

Trump is far worse than I had any idea he would be when he was running for President. I didn’t vote for him but many gullibles did.

Of course not, despite all his $$$, he can't correct his own ignorance either.

obviously you need new managers. Professional work places don't allow for that. Find a new job.
