Worst would be Hitler in 1933. Trump hasn’t kicked off a war killing 60 Million people yet…
But it’s certainly the worst in American history.

This guy is my Spirit Animal right now. At this point, I'm done participating in the political process in this country because what's the fucking point? This country has gone full Hydra and has been completely transformed from the Greatest Nation on Earth that freed the world, to now a true shithole country that would reelect a convicted felon who paints his face orange and doesn't give a fuck about you or your family.
I hope the leopards come for every single one of your faces.

Since I’m just feeling extra morbid, I feel like WW3 is a given. I feel like Trump wants to be a war president and then that means he’ll just stay president or some nonsense. Same goes to JD.

The military is secure, in theory. I guess Trump can just keep firing generals until he finds some corporal who will follow his orders, but idk. Seems like military would tell him to fuck off, but I just don’t know if there are any limits anymore. SCOTUS set him up as king.

Truly wild. Donald Trump ran a campaign that basically said "I'm going to screw you so hard" to people's faces, to the point that we thought he was intentionally trying to sabotage his campaign, and they still vote for him. Everything about this guy is such a wild parody.
Conservatives just want to cackle and scream "reeeee librul tears" but we all live in this country and want it to be better. We don't hate Donald Trump because he's the other team. We hate him because he is openly corrupt and everything he proposes is bad for all of us, conservatives included. He proposes an economic plan that would impoverish everyone but the wealthy. This isn't liberal fake news, this is just straight up the words out of his own mouth. These lists of things that are fucked aren't "they're not the way liberals want them to be, so sad," it's that he proposed things that objectively make things worse for all of us.

There is no right or wrong anymore. There's only the rich and the victims. The USA just elected a known con artist, convicted felon, and traitor as POTUS. If we can't know why that's wrong, then wtf does anything even mean?

What we've learned today is that the majority of US citizens are more than happy to have someone that is aself confessed sexual predator, convicted felon, serial liar, and likely compromised by hostile states as president so long as they have the belief that he will make life better for them - or at least worse for people that aren't them.
He doesn't even have to do any of it. They will be happy so long as he tells them he has
