And my words seem to get bigger with every post.

just whatever the most mean-spirited, selfish, childish things you can think of, thats the only stuff the trump administration has been able to get done.

the entire point of government is that bad stuff is happening to someone somewhere and we'd all very much prefer not to have to fix it ourselves so we pay someone to fix it for us

sometimes the bad stuff happens to the personal-us, and then we get very upset and mad

you are interrogating the basic concept of societal organization, acting like it is intelligent, and it is annoying as hell

but apart from all of that, show me something...anything!!!

(you're a moron)

to be fair it was an interesting (if naive) question - other than the fear of bad policies he wants to put thru, has he actually negatively affected anyone's life yet

The answer is a resounnding yes but still i think the op is more naive / uninformed tgan anything and has in fact been listenng to the answers ppl are posting

Hi everybody. I realize that my brain didn't just break on election night. It's broken once or twice a week since then. Now I have a head full of broken brain parts. They used to work together to form relatively coherent thoughts, but now they just scream out independently, each to their own particular spot of bother. "Many sides!" "Wiretapped!" "Very unfairly, I can tell you that!"

The pieces were louder when they were rough and jagged, but now that they're becoming smooth and rounded, I rather enjoy the sound they make when I shake my head from side to side. Like gently shaking a box of marbles.
TCHUK. TCHUK. TCHUK. TCHUK.

You're talking to me, I'm looking at you, I look like I'm listening, but really I'm just listening to the sound of my head marbles as I shake my head from side to side. After a while, you walk away and look back. I'm still standing there, still focused on the spot where you were, still shaking my head.

Watching this dementia-addled maniac throw paper towels into a crowd, instead of like maybe even his lovely, C-tier Sharper Image steaks, broke a little bit of my brain once again. A new nugget to smoothen and polish. When I saw the video yesterday at work, I just started laughing and laughing, and I couldn't stop.

That's it. I'll take a 7 mile wide meteor with extra hot sauce, thanks.

How about the ever-present dread that goes along with the knowledge that Donald J. Trump, infamous real estate tycoon, reality television star, WWE Hall of Famer, and noted dotard in decline, holds the nuclear codes and could destroy all of us, and indeed, all life on Earth, on a whim?

His tax plan will make both mine and Mom's moms taxes go up considerably. For her, it's in the range of 15-20k a year. Lol 200k salary in California.

Also I have a pre-existing condition(kidney disease) which will likely make me uninsurable if health insurance failcascade continues. I lucked out that we didn't get a competent Republican admin I suppose...
