    Amazing isn’t it? Trump is the epitome of failure, but only at the mercy of other people. You gotta hand it to the piece of shit, he is an incredible grifter. He’s managed to convince an entire Top Three nation to let him do whatever the fuck he wants. He’s getting away with unspeakable crimes; pedophilia, rape, possibly murder… etc. The world’s worst human being running freely, in the most powerful position in the world, and a cult of personality. Just amazingly terrible.

      Yup, same as it’s always been. I find solace in his big mad though:

      1. Wants to be beloved by all Americans; will never be loved by even half of Americans.
      2. Desperately wants to preserve his legacy; there is no future where his legacy isn’t tarnished.
      3. Craves being the richest, most successful ‘business’ man in the world; every business launched ended in failure or prosecution.
      4. Tries to project emotional strength and fortitudinous; late-night comedians live rent free in what’s left of his brain.
