I think he’s a narcissistic bully with a huge mental deficiency, and to me he’s everything that I would struggle to associate with the USA. Perhaps I’m wrong, but I think there are many around the world who also view him as an opportunistic blowhard, a crook who proclaims he’s a victim when he's clearly not an ethical or honest person.
I was in the banking business from 1973 to 1994, after a few years in the Navy and grad school. I heard about Trump in the early 1980's. Even then, he was viewed as a clown, a bullshitter, and someone a responsible bank would never lend to. He is all that and much more. I was stunned when he got the GOP nomination. When he won in 2016, I had the same feeling in my gut that I had on 9/11.
IMHO the election of Trump, after Obama, is proof of how strong (and how stupid) racism is in the USA. There are a bunch of converging smaller reasons why Trump succeeded... the increasing fantasy bubble of "conservatism" in the USA, the increasing right-wing media influence on normalizing hatred for liberals and Democrats, the incessant lobbying of the 0.1%ers for their corporations to increasingly control everything... but the #1 reason is that all the people in this country who just hated the idea that a black man could ever be considered President were inflamed by Obama and ready to throw the country out the window.

Prior to 2016, I never heard anybody ever express an opinion of Donald Trump that wasn't along the lines of born-rich blowhard egotist lying crook.

PALM BEACH (The Borowitz Report)—Melania Trump, who made headlines in 2018 by wearing a jacket emblazoned with the words “I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?,” was spotted wearing the garment again Thursday evening.

Mrs. Trump, who was seen in the controversial jacket while taking a stroll around the grounds of Mar-a-Lago, offered no explanation for donning it other than that she “was really in the mood to wear it tonight.”


The former President’s wife projected an air of calm that was in sharp contrast with the tense scenes unfolding inside the residence, according to reports.

Sources said that an emergency cleaning crew had to be summoned to Mar-a-Lago to mop up what was described as a “river of ketchup.”

Damn it, the punch line isn't funny at all.

I agree with what you say, but you left out the Hilary factor: a lot of people disliked her, despised her even, and would not vote for her, despite her being very qualified.

It's kind of insulting having all of these fucking shitbag politicians talk about the weaponizing of the justice system. If I was on that grand jury, a jury of Trump's peers, I would be fucking pissed at all these cock gobblers. Not just Ms. Lindsey.

That Kimberley Guilfoyle chick looks like she's eaten a lemon.
Its rather telling that not one of the Trumpist brigade has even mentioned anything about the reason TFG is being indicted.
The only talking point... witch hunt witch hunt witch hunt.
