I'm not for or against Trump. What I want is for him to succeed. Not for the sake of Trump, but because it benefits a lot of people if he does. The only way he has another term is if he's successful. Just, give the bastard the chance to fail. Or the chance to succeed.

"Benefits a lot of people"... whose annual income is seven figures or higher. Also, I guess if you own an arsenal of firearms you can relax your sphincter for the first time since 2008.

Everyone else? Not so much.

Also, why should I give that narcissistic, egomaniacal demagogue a chance? A man who panders to racist white nationalists. A man who is a proxy for the millionaire & billionaire class and wants to gut every regulatory agency, slash taxes for the rich, and privatize everything he can. A man who denies science. A man who picked as his running mate another man who believes in reparative therapy for homosexuals. A man who picked the former head of Breitbart as his chief strategist and senior counselor. A man who's Supreme Court picks could potentially result in an overturn of Roe and Obergefell and uphold Citizens United for another generation. A man who denied the very citizenship of our still-current president. A man whose strongest supporters were people like this:


You really think I should give Trump and his minions a chance? Bullshit on that. I might have given Jeb or Kasich or Rubio a chance as they still bear some semblance to sane human beings. I might not particularly like them, and I'd be buckling up for a repeat of Dubya's earlier years, but that wouldn't suck nearly as much as how bad things could potentially get over the coming years. America The Electoral College has put in place a complete lunatic for commander-in-chief and head of the executive branch. Trump better hope he doesn't get his way, because if he does, and we still have a country by 2020, he's going to be a one-term president.

Simple.  Because of the office he holds.  You don't have to like him, but let him do his job first.  He did and said shit in the past, but the future is up in the air.  I get you're angry, don't know why really, but you can't take your ball and run home just because the points aren't on your favor.  Let the die roll and then crucify him if he's terrible.
