The Trump Presidency Is Over
The Atlantic ^ | 3/13/20 | Peter Wehner

It has taken a good deal longer than it should have, but Americans have now seen the con man behind the curtain.

When, in January 2016, I wrote that despite being a lifelong Republican who worked in the previous three GOP administrations, I would never vote for Donald Trump, even though his administration would align much more with my policy views than a Hillary Clinton presidency would, a lot of my Republican friends were befuddled. How could I not vote for a person who checked far more of my policy boxes than his opponent?

What I explained then, and what I have said many times since, is that Trump is fundamentally unfit—intellectually, morally, temperamentally, and psychologically—for office.

It took until the second half of Trump’s first term, but the crisis has arrived in the form of the coronavirus pandemic, and it’s hard to name a president who has been as overwhelmed by a crisis as the coronavirus has overwhelmed Donald Trump.

I 'hate' when these bags of wind can spew their garbage on an internet "news site"

So ya thought you'd share this, "Spewed garbage"?

This is as bad as people putting, "Barf alert" on titles, as if we all want to read about barf.

Gezzzz.

We saw the beginning of the end of the demonrat party at their recent debate that should have provided them with food to throw at each other to make it even more entertaining.

The author will be on suicide watch when Trump is handily re-elected.

I'll watch... with a big bag if popcorn. I might even help if it looks like I might run out of popcorn.

Of course you wouldn’t be part of the political peddlers of panic. No doubt you’re a big Trump supporter.

“Freepers” never loved Bush but we respect the office of the President and the Constitution that he was elected under.

What planet are you from?

Boosh even had his own protected thread here, where those who didn't agree were banned and or attacked by wolf packs of Boosh fans.
