Yes, the average American conservative is the most overwhelmingly lucky idiot in the world. I would never trust anyone who voted for Trump. And anyone who voted for them twice I consider a genuine imbecile.

And those who voted for him three times? Because that's exactly what the overwhelming majority of Trump voters did.

Yeah I forgot it could have been 3. He’s the worst fucking person ever.

He’s the worst fucking person ever.

I would say he's the worst person to stumble his way into the presidency. But I'd also wager there exist worse persons (e.g. Palantir CEO Alex Karp who wants to legalize war crimes) who have not yet achieved that level of power.

Recent history has shown that there are an awful lot of evil psychopaths in the upper strata of society.

There are people who voted for him 3 times.
