As Election Day nears, it's hard to understand why this election is as close as it is, if we can trust the polling data. After years of the mentally-disturbed Malignant Loser's compulsive lying, cheating, scamming, and attempted overthrow the Government, roughly half of the voting population will still cast their ballots for him. Shameful.
Kirk Swearingen at Salon.com makes the detailed case why the unstable Malignant Loser / garbage man was never qualified to hold any meaningful job, much less the office of President. An excerpt:
"Protected by a fortune from his father while playing the part of a canny real estate developer, Trump repeatedly bankrupted himself upward. The “King of Debt” learned early on how to profit from public money and make the public pay for his mistakes. Wayne Barrett, the journalist who saw Trump’s grifting ways from the get-go, wrote: “Like his father, Donald Trump has pushed each deal to the limit, taking from it whatever he can get, turning political connections into private profits at public expense."
Occupying the White House allowed him to amp up his shameless grifting and shady dealing, from profiting on his office via Washington’s Trump International Hotel (which has since been sold and rebranded) to selling Trump superhero NFTs and golden sneakers and hawking Bibles that encourage people to laugh off all that nonsense about the separation of church and state.
So as we at last (and yet somehow too soon) come to Election Day 2024 and hear from ever more prominent people that Trump is unfit and unqualified to be president — often from the highest level people who worked with him during his first term of occasionally occupying the Oval Office — we should not forget that he was never fit, or qualified, to be president.
Indeed, one could easily argue, as people have for years, that he is not qualified or fit to serve in any job in any capacity." (our emphasis)
Tell that to his cult, a large slice of which believe that this corrupt and immoral con man was sent from heaven on a divine mission to, what, turn America into a fascist dictatorship? November 5 is coming, and with it, a reckoning with America's MAGA half.
