        I mean best people who are also politicians. Arguably Trump is the best politician, because despite openly being an absolute trainwreck of a human being he somehow has had power twice.

          Yeah, “best politician” isn’t really a compliment. The best ones are good liars who commit egregious acts while retaining a base that still worships them. Trump is formidable in that respect, though I think Obama is better. Obama did a lot of shitty things and is still widely adored, whereas most of the population will readily admit Trump is a piece of shit.

      I didn’t mean to take anything away from him. it’s just frustrating when the ignorant clowns are in charge.

      While he deserves credit for finally coming out with it, it is incredibly frustrating that it took him this long.
