And it is easy to manipulate the people via media.
Let's wait another year and see....please ask the question again somewhere in 2018. Or do you believe the USA has burnt down by than ?
I'm not a Trump supporter. But understand his political doctrine. Make the US big again !
Right?
You may think you are trying to be fair, but no, this is nothing but blindness and shortsightedness.
Trump has been saying vile crap for 5 years. He took off with what that delusional lady started with the birther crap about Obama being a secret Muslim, long before he ran. The started his campaign off by scapegoating Mexican migrants with "they're rapists". Then attacked the military service of a DEAD SOLDIER just because he was Muslim knowing it would play well to his bigoted far right base. He couldn't even leave his own GOP John McCain alone regarding his service. He burned his way through the primaries burning his own party nominees to get the nomination. He vilified 17 intel agencies basically implying they didn't know what the fuck they were talking about. So much so that 50 former REPUBLICAN law agents signed a a letter warning the nation what a Trump presidency could lead to.
It isn't about giving him a chance, he was never fit. The only thing keeping him in office is that he has just enough delusional supporters who are taking the cheap win because a win is more important to them than the clear lack of ethics and clear lack of understanding of what national and global diplomacy is required to lead as President.
Trump IS NOT a left or right issue. You cant give someone a chance if all they do is vilify and scapegoat, nor should you.
I can only say that I was not completely aware of the above, I mean I knew he did some weird things in the past as a business guy and local politics guy, quite shocking and very rude, stupid even. But he was still "democratically" elected and won against Clinton, millions of Americans voted him....
But I agree my feeling towards disliking him because of his current actions as a President (Getting out of the climate agreement.....is...utterly stupid, there is just to much science and evidence available showing the world has no choice...to eehm change..).
I just wonder how the US will profit with him being the supreme leader. I wonder how it will be at the end of 2018 for example...will he be impeached, or will he be more populair and loved than you all would ever imagine ??
