He went to Russia with his hat in his hand, a loser who couldn't

get a loan from any western bank. SO MANY bankruptcies, so little understanding that they weren't actually "good business"..

He's a pathetic, impoverished supplicant whose money in the future will flow from under the arctic sea, and belong to Putin.

They don't want to fuss with the details. They just want to make America great again, and they voted in a character who will sell them out to Russia.

I thought Americans were smarter than this. I really did.

It is sad but true. Performance in academics, healthwise, happiness and satisfaction with life...you name it and we basically suck at it, period.

Except for believing insane things - like religions....world class there. Ought to tell you all you need to know about it...

He was already a corrupt, worthless, vile POS.

Let me amend my premise.

Trump made a Faustian Bargain when he met Roy Cohn.
