We just elected a convicted rapist, felon and fraud who want to force Christianity upon the country. Where's the empathy in that? Nice guys finish last. People respond to strength, not empathy.

I don't see any utility in that. Even if it's true, the proper action is to change it, not to accept it.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
