when i first heard that the host of The Apprentice was going to be running for President, i laughed. that would surely never happen, i thought. and them when he was actually handed the election by the electoral college despite not getting the popular vote, i viewed it as just as much of a miscarriage of justice and mockery of our political system as when Dubya was handed victory by the EC despite the popular vote as well.

but i never thought Trump would actually be capable of doing any tangible harm while in office. i thought he would just bumble about and be ineffectual and blustery, and then in four years we would get back on track.

and then i saw what he was doing. taking the US out of the Paris Climate Accords. taking us out of trade agreements and alienating all of our traditional global allies. rolling back environmental protections and workers' rights. posting classified US spy satellite footage on his social media accounts. fucking what? I slowly realized that he was not anywhere near as ineffectual as i thought he would be.

and as re-election started looming near and i saw how much his ego had been inflated from his stint in office, i also realized that if he lost, his ego would prevent him from conceding and peacefully transferring power to his successor. i called it months in advance. he would be willing to do ANYTHING in order to stay in office and maintain power for himself. and then January 6th happened and i was proven right. and from then on i knew he was nothing but a traitor, an agitator in the pockets of hostile foreign governments, and then with the whole fiasco with the classified documents, very likely the most dire threat to national security that we have faced in our lifetime.
