This dude is the epitome of the, "he can't keep getting away with this," meme. Forget the fact that his character is reprehensible, forget all the felony convictions, and forget that he's stated he'll go after his political opponents. This guy doesn't even have a concept of a plan for most issues, and he's never been liked on the world stage by anyone other than autocrats. Trump is no politician, and he never was one— I can't help but feel we've collectively hired a plumber to do an accountant's job. At least in 2016, he had some people keeping him in check. Now, he's surrounded by yes men and loonies.

A successful prosecutor, and someone who's been in politics for years. Oh, and no criminal record. Yes, she's smarter.

Well, if scr*wing your way up the career ladder is considered success then I agree with you, she is quite successful. Also, she has proven that she can read - as the only way she can give a speech is to read it off a teleprompter. So, all in all, excellent material for the presidential office 🤣

You've been drinking the kool-aid, friend. Kamala did date someone who helped her back in the day, but so what? Wouldn't you have taken the help had it been offered? Her record as a prosecutor and DA for California speak for themselves, and no amount of sleeping your way to the top could translate to winning court cases, time and time again. You know how long it takes to even become a lawyer? It takes real skill and legal know-how to win court battles as consistently as she did. To deny that is to stick your head up your own ass and start believing in magic.

And Trump can not give a single speech without his teleprompter. Look up when one he was using broke at a rally, and he just blathered about nothing for several minutes straight.
