So basically you are saying you are easily controlled/manipulated, your controllers just have to phrase things in the right way.]]></description>

Listen, the devil is in the details.  While most of those are nice *goals*, he has absolutely no plans for bringing them into reality.  Just like his &quot;healthcare plan&quot; that will cover everyone, be cheaper than the ACA, and won&#039;t have a personal mandate, but which, surprise surprise, has never been released or even conceptualized. About the only major domestic policy he&#039;s actually passed were the tax cuts, which arguably didn&#039;t help anyone other than Wall St and exploded the national debt.

The fact is I am against basically every aspect of Trump.  I hate his style, I hate his divisive rhetoric, I hate his authoritarian tendencies, I hate his trashing the free press and calling for arrests or civil suits, I hate his squabbling over the least important things on the entire planet like crowd sizes, I hate his pathological lying, I hate how he&#039;s thrown traditional American allies under the bus, I hate how he wants to pull out of every international agreement, I hate how he doesn&#039;t listen to experts, I hate how he&#039;s so influenced by a cable TV network, I hate how he promotes conspiracy theories, I hate how there is so much corruption in his administration, I hate how he&#039;s been credibly accused of rape by multiple women...

I could go on for pages and page.  But, even despite all those things, if he was a highly competent executive, then maybe I could give him a pass on some of those things.  But, as it turns out, He completely ignored the COVID threat for months, then he promote untested miracle cures, suggested injecting bleach or UV light into your blood, somehow made wearing a mask a political issue, and left the pandemic response largely up to the states with little help or direction from the federal government.  I can&#039;t think of how anyone could have done worse.  At the same time as that, he&#039;s trying to kill healthcare in this country with absolutely no plan to replace it despite lies to the contrary.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Nothing? LOL. 

&quot;It is what it is&quot; when asked to respond to 1,000 deaths a day in the US. He can barely talk about the pandemic without pushing the blame elsewhere -- the &quot;China virus&quot;, blue states, Democrat cities, etc. Not once has he stepped up and said anything remotely like &quot;The buck stops here.&quot; He doesn&#039;t even read his daily briefings, and shows no interest in educating himself on the issues. Hires quacks and disses the most distinguished (and trusted) infectious disease expert in the nation whenever he says something Trump believes will hurt his image. He&#039;s censored the CDC and NIH, appointed political operatives in key positions in those agencies to keep a lid on any science-based public advice that interfered with his plan to pretend the pandemic was over and fully reopen the economy, death toll be damned.

I could keep going, but I&#039;d be here all night and still not reach the end of the list.]]></description>
