Did Trump lose because of his mishandling of COVID, his personality, his failure on health care, or just a general lack of achievements?


Trump, contrary to common right wing media hogwash, hasn’t done much for this country. His mishandling of the Covid19 is simply an extension of his mishandling of every single thing that fell under his jurisdiction. If you take Fox News and Twitter out - meaning take the propaganda machines out of the equation and let the work itself speak; there’s nothing there. Absolutely nothing.

Steel jobs will come back
Coal jobs will come back
I will ban all Muslims from entering the US
I will repeal ACA and replace it with something so cheap and so amazing
The wall, Mexico will build it
Trade wars are so easy to win
We will so much you will be tired of winning

Meanwhile, he spent most of his time golfing and tweeting and watching TV and alienating every single ally we had on the global world stage.



All Trump cult voted for Trump because it’s Trump. Not because he did anything for them.

Armed service-men and service-women: demeaned and made fun of;
Veterans: demeaned and made fun of;
Racists and Xenophobes: applauded, encouraged and front-lined; armed and ready;
King worshippers: found their kings and started their chants;
Evangelicals: sold their souls and started Trump worshipping;

The man divided this country in half; destroyed as many of the Republic’s institutions as he can - though not by himself. For a certain group that was waiting for somebody like Trump to come along like the people wait the second coming of Christ is to be credited for that - Trump was on the train for the votes and the applause.

Covid19 is a sign of what happens when you act like a fool in 21st century. This is no longer 17th century. Even the people at the turn of 20th century were smarter than the populace that refuses to listen to science and logic and instead go along with rhetoric and foaming around the mouth speeches.


I wonder how many more signs these people are waiting. Frogs to fall from the sky?

Trump lost because more than half this country still believes in the ideals that made this the greatest nation on earth.

The rest can learn from history

"Never let yourself be persuaded that any one Great Man, any one leader, is necessary to the salvation of America. When America consists of one leader and 158 million followers, it will no longer be America."

Dwight D. Eisenhower
