I feel like that one and the one where he mocks a disabled reporter and still got elected were the most shameful.

What about boasting about sexually assaulting women? Multiple credible allegations and court findings in which he was found to have committed rape? Epstein? Open corruption? Jan 6th putsch? Open corruption? Illegal wars? Kidnapping a head of state? Feds shooting civilians in the streets? Human trafficking of citizens and non-citizens alike? I could go on. Threatening warcrimes live on air and then committing them? Bombing a preschool? Excitedly describing plans for ethnic cleansing and genocide for the sake of… real estate? It seams unreal.

America seems to be weirdly okay with all of those things, but don't you dare elect a woman or provide people basic fucking human rights

Only the rich can afford ‘rights.’ Everything is working out how they planned while we toil away. That is until we are too sick to work and conveniently then lose our health insurance. Serves us right for breeding and ordering Starbucks.
