    I’d like to know this too. We all know the issues with the current regime. It’s clearly the worst in our lifetime.

    But some of these issues may not have been apparent before the internet, before constant news. There may be different corruption, different rubber stamps and hiding of corruption, crime, and incompetence. We like to think previous presidents had some shame some ethics some standards, but did they really or was it just easier to hide

    As far as I can tell the current administration has cemented their place in history, with the sheer maliciousness and negative impact on the country and even the world. A Term which will live in infamy. Standing far below every other administration

    …. But will history agree?

      Lets be honest with ourselves, too, we are talking about slavers, white supremacists, ruling class, etc. etc.

    He’s probably going to go down in history as the worst 'Murica has ever had

    I hope there’s nobody worse than him because it’s already tough to see the world not really suffering as a result of his shitfuckery

    This is because of Trump, and others, practicing multiple forms of Catholicism (Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are the big three). Of course, every single politician gets their marching orders from the Pope in the Vatican, and all these false flags we’ve been seeing are Jesuit rituals designed to basically embarrass us. Ask my producer, Neigsendoig, how we’ve learned that.

      I’m super atheist, I really hate religion and can’t stand any form of it but even I’m like “what the fuck?”

        It just shows how bad I feel for you not understanding what I’ve said (especially with a mod apparently taking the Mark of the Beast, having removed the truth on here). While I understand that not everyone will understand it, it’s toxicity that really ticks normal people, like myself, into a tizzy.

      If the Pope was in charge health care would be single-payer, abortion would be emergency-only, and both gay marriage and capital punishment would be illegal.

      I wish I had the faith in human competency that conspiracy theorists demonstrate, but I think the truth is that humans are far stupider than that.

        I’ve always had a strive to be reasonable with my explanations, even if I seem harsh at times. However, if someone decides to censor the truth, it’s likely they take the Mark of the Beast themself, and they have no idea (which is why a mod removed my reasonable comment based upon our research).

    Like an order of magnitude worse?

    • No sitting president before him has been a convicted felon.
    • No sitting president before him has been involved in the sheer volume of sexual scandals from assault to cheating to being implicated in possible pedophilia.
    • No sitting president before him has refused to return literally boxes and boxes of classified documents which he kept as trophies (or possibly as items for sale) while storing them in extremely inappropriate ways. (This is extremely different from Biden, btw, who promptly returned a few accidentally retained documents. Trump was playing shell games with them, repeatedly swearing he had returned them all while doing things like loading them on planes to move to other locations, etc.)
    • No sitting president before him has attempted to overthrow the government when they lost an election.
    • The level of bribery and corruption in his administration is off the charts.
    • The number of lies he tells has always been off the charts. (“I’ve never heard of Project 2025!” while having given a speech to its members and now following its plans to dismantle the federal government.)
    • His department heads have all been picked to dismantle the departments they’re in. (Project 2025 again)

    And then of course there is the christofascism angle, which is extremely disturbing because he definitely plans to never leave power again. He’s currently trying hard to normalize use of military force against US citizens so he can seize control of the elections to make sure they go his way.

      Ok, all true.

      Just was hoping we could deep dive in american history but now I remember this site is still pretty shallow.

        I mean I don’t have the amount of time necessary to go into how dirty past presidents have been and I certainly don’t have the knowledge at my fingertips. But also, I think the stuff like Watergate and Monica Lewinski is barely a blip on the chart when you put Trump on it too. Which is not to say I condone the behavior of those presidents or seek to normalize their behavior. Just that from a numerical perspective it barely registers.

    America were always (at least since Carter, 2nd world war ? Not American I probably forgot my president) colonialist in their exterior politics… now their facist about it.
