1/ I remember interviews of Trump in the 1980s & he wasn’t that bad. He wasn’t someone I would’ve voted for for president but he had a reasonableness about him. He wasn’t horrifying.

2/ He changed over the years. It was apparently Kushner who convinced him that playing the hate card would get him elected president. I tend to think if he had stayed who he was, he still might have won in 2016 & he’d probably be headed for a second term now.

3/ For so long – and I know, we still have 40 some odd days to worry about – he was such a malignant presence that all some of us could think about was how to get him out of the WH. Now that his presidency is waning, I think of him less as a danger and more as a human tragedy.

He’s still alive and kicking. Trumps show isn’t over, he has showed that he has tons of energy and a vindictive personality. I have no doubt that he will continue to be a pain in the Ass.

As long as Donald Trump retains the bully pulpit he's a danger to democracy and the people of this country. Even after he leaves office he'll remain a danger to truth, rationality, and common sense.

He's not going away. The amount of cash + the powerfeed he's hooked-up to his followers is his addiction. They provide, elevate + empower. It's a feeding frenzy for all. Once he's out of our WH, it's pedal to the metal with his megaphone.

Mary Trump's book explains quite a bit, his dad was a monster, Trump never had a chance. But he's not gone yet, and he's a menace until he's in the grave, he's far too willing to direct violence from his followers.

Oh my god they are right, dems are starting to whitewash him already... Jesus Fucking Christ, man... FUCKING NOOOOOOOO!!!! This is not going to accomplish ANYTHING!!!!!!!!! That "human tragedy" would gladly walk over you dying in the street if it meant him getting elected again!!

Just let people hate him like they SHOULD for fuck's sake...

Everyone was forced to endure him for all these years, they have earned the right to feel EXACTLY the way they feel about him.

Counseling people with physical ailments. They need a frequent reminder not to hate their ailment or their circumstance because it interferes with healing. Hating Trump serves no purpose for ourselves or him. It is a negative emotion that just feeds the beast
