I don't really judge people for voting for Trump in 2016. It shows ignorance, certainly, but not necessarily maliciousness. But I don't have time for anybody that voted for him in 2020 or is still supporting him. It's not even a matter of differing political ideals, it's a complete lack of political ideals. Trumpites flip back and forth, just following whatever their orange messiah says.

In all seriousness, it is about basic human decency. You cannot really believe you are a decent person, if you see Trump as a leader in any form, someone to follow anywhere, a man to be trusted with your life.

That's independent from politics. It's about the decay of basic decency in society.

This man grabs'em by the pussy, is racist to the core, handles things openly with malicious intent - strangely all the things that have been on the rise, since Trump was president.

It's almost like his presidential arc empowered the like minded in the population to be more self-confident in their beliefs and even more vocal about it.

Make no mistake, don't think this is something that happened exclusively to USA. Trump's presidential antics caused shockwaves that went around the globe. Like a knife, dividing societies all around the globe.

I despise him for that.
