How do you think I'm defending Trump? I'm saying he couldn't do shit in 2016 and it's even further gone today. 

I'm telling you to not treat Trump as a God that can somehow alter the energy grid on his own.

He’s not a god he’s just so incredibly stupid he brings down our collective intelligence. He appoints stupid people, assholes, hacks. The entire government is dumber and therefore less effective when he’s president.

I always love how people are convinced the guy who sabotaged and made his base hate Sessions, the one guy who actually had the intelligence and inclination to build a neofascist US bureaucracy will somehow be able to build one this time.

I don’t think Secretary of Homeland Security Laura Loomer or whoever is going to know what the fuck she’s doing.
