what bothers me about trump isn't really his policies. i should quickly clarify: i mean relatively. it's not like i think clinton would have been much better. and, what the democrats in congress are broadcasting is that the direction they're going in might actually be worse.

in four years, we may find ourselves in the situation where we're stuck rationalizing that "at least trump doesn't want to start a war with russia."

what bothers me is the delusional level of optimism that's sprouting up - this idea that trump is somehow different. and, that's what i aim to target, primarily.
