The saddest thing is that there is absolutely nothing which will dissuade a Trump supporter. NOTHING. Refusing to disavow white supremacists? No problem. Being heavily in debt to whoever? No problem. Allowing a pandemic to run unchecked through our country, and lying about it to the American public on a daily basis? No problem. Actively undermining our democratic institutions? No problem. Trying to set up a crypto-police state and sending armed, unidentified "federal troops" into American cities? No problem. Having the national guard clear out peaceful racial justice protesters so that you can get a bizarre photo op with a bible (a book I'll guarantee that he's never read) in front of a church? No problem. Kowtowing to Russia/Vladimir Putin every chance he gets? No problem. Starting a trade war with China that has resulted in zero positives for this country? No problem. Funning federal money into the pockets of his family and friends? No problem. Destroying this country's environmental regulations? No problem. Passing a "tax cut" that amounted to a tax increase for many people (especially those in "blue states")? No problem. Pursuing an openly bigoted immigration policy? No problem.

I could go on and on. This is such a disheartening time to be an American.

My post should have read "funneling federal money". Please excuse the typo!

As another writer I’m almost sure trump’s “funning” our tax dollars into his foreign bank accounts so he can defect to Vlad’s place and be an oilygark.
