This Vicious Buffoon Is a Vessel for All the Worst Elements of the American Condition

In my life, I have watched John Kennedy talk on television about missiles in Cuba... I saw Jimmy Carter talk about malaise and Ronald Reagan talk about a shining city on a hill... I saw George W. Bush struggle to make sense of it all on September 11, 2001, and I saw Barack Obama sing 'Amazing Grace' in the wounded sanctuary of Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina... These were the presidents of my lifetime. These were not perfect men... They tried, at least, to reach for something in the presidency that was beyond their grasp as ordinary human beings. They were not all ennobled by the attempt, but they tried nonetheless.

And comes now this hopeless, vicious buffoon, and the audience of equally hopeless and vicious buffoons... The scion of a multigenerational criminal enterprise, the parameters of which we are only now beginning to comprehend. A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides. We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president as currently occupies the office. We never have had a president so completely deserving of scorn.

Whiny, crybabies, unwilling to accept the results of a legal election. That's all this is.

Nothing about policy. It's always about policy. You lost. Get over it.

Sad...but a cautionary tale.

Trump has one major flaw when it comes to being President.

When he wakes up in the morning, instead of thinking "What can I do today to make America better?" his first thought is "What can I do today to stick it to my enemies?".

He's right. Too bad Trumpers are blindly loyal to this fraud. Trumpers have abandoned rationality for emotion because like Trump they are ruled by fear. Trump knows fear is a powerful emotion and knows his base will run and hide behind the man who can save them even if the man is a huckster.

If Trump didn't exist, we would have to invent him.

Finally, someone in the White House is on my side!

Yeah Clarallel, I know you despise him, but you despise me too, so I don't care.

Washington used to be a crossroads of political ideas on what is best for the country.

Trump has turned it into a vicious dog fight of political parties trying to rip each other apart with no regards of the effects on the country.

Trump may appear vicious on Twitter but he displayed what a wuss he truly is when he played Putin's lapdog in Helsinki and failed to call him out on Russia's interference in US elections.
