My decisions were based on what he was before he was President and somewhat on the campaign he ran the first time...where he bold-faced declared he knew the system was rigged...because he helped rig it and exploited it. To be frank...I am just as much a "never Clintoner", "never Bidener" with the same conviction...for basically the same reasons
So besides sparing us from the Hillary presidency, we got a couple decent supreme court nominations and quite honestly that satisfied ALL of my expectations from a real estate developer / reality tv show host who wanted to be president because Obama snubbed him at some DC "look at me" dinner.
The "Never Trump" people I hate the most are the ones who closed ranks to stand on his dick in order to protect their own place at the money trough. Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and the same Rinos who co opted the Tea Party did everything they could to prevent any real change. The thought of an outsider terrified them and that is why most of us voted for him. Let's keep in mind these are the same useless f'ers who ran Romney...TWICE.
The reality is he drowned in the swamp, navigating government isn't the same as being a CEO and getting everything you want. Once the guys in the GOP started burning him, THEY became the enemy. That meant he had no friends anywhere and that also meant he was done. He also seems to take defeat of any kind really personally and he lashes out. It's what gave him the drive to win the presidency and in the end it's what cost him the presidency.
Trump was probably a valuable course correction, but we need to move on. Hopefully to something better. Also this crap is damn premature, the primaries won't be until Feb of 2024.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
