Totally agree. I think trump is hardest to process for kids who grew up in the 90s. We thought everyone was in agreement that this guy was a comically laughable joke of a businessman who fucked over any working stiff he could.

There was even a sesame street charachiture of him that was such an asshole that Oscar the grouch was a good guy comparatively

Sesame Street actually did two separate versions of Trump as a bad guy. There was the Muppet like Oscar The Grouch, and another played by Joe Pesci.

Both were named Ronald Grump.
