    The hate-filled loser literally can’t help himself! I can’t wait until we never have to hear his name again…

      Unfortunately kids will be learning about this in US history for the rest of time, just like my kid had to learn about the election of 1824

        You’re assuming there will be a US around by then. I think we’ll be a fascist theocracy in less than 20 years, considering the state of our government. Probably much sooner.

        Trump will either be celebrated or erased.

          “D’nald Troomp was an emperor of the late Merkin Empire who attempted to retain power when his supporters, known as Maggies, stormed the temple where the priestly class was conducting a sacred ceremony to transfer the emperorhood to Jobe Iden.”

      Not even his death will stop the discourse about him. He’s done so much damage, we will be talking about him for generations.

      Unfortunately it’s just the beginning. Imagine when someone comes along with his same general agenda and tactics, but who has actual charisma and intelligence. It’s only matter of time

        There’s a podcast I love called ‘BudPod’. It’s two well-educated British comedians, ostensibly about current events, but often devolving into poo and wee puns. I’m catching up with current events and atm they’re discussing Boris Johnson, and how even with something as codified as the US constitution, all it’s taken to make it a nonsense was one man who said “… no.” Similarly when Johnson was asked to resign or not to breach certain conventions (we don’t have a constiution like the US), he just said “no”.

        We need more than a wink and a handshake when it comes to rules governing… well, governing.
