[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I continue to be confused by all the people who didn't see this coming from a mile away. Nothing he's done has been a surprise. If people are surprised, I can only assume they weren't paying attention. Trump was terrible during his first term, but at least he had to consider being re-elected and he also started his term with a fairly competent (albeit not who I would choose) cabinet. This time around all the competent people have left the building and we're left with a terrible person being advised by other terrible people. [/quote]

Oh, FFS, get serious!

It is completely defensible and understandable that tens of millions of Americans didn’t believe that the entire facade of “ironclad” constitutional protections and institutions of government that we were all apparently brainwashed to believe in would crumble into dust like this!

This brainwashing was used to assure us that our law enforcement and justice systems were fair, objective, and just. It was used to cultivate xenophobia and a sadly false sense of American Exceptionalism. And it was used to convince us that what’s happening right now could NEVER possibly happen.

So no … those surprised or shocked or whatever are not idiots. They just believed the lies we were all sold.[/quote]

Lies that we were sold because the GOP refuses to do its job standing up to a despot.[/quote]
