Trump getting elected in 2016. “The checks and balances will keep him in line” I was told.

To that I say: go fuck yourself.

The same people are saying the same thing this time around. It’s insane.

I heard a lot of "you survived the first time, it's fine," when he got reelected. Ah yes, that pandemic we all survived. The constant food recalls where none of us got sick. The uptick in gun violence that made all of us so safe and cozy. Not to mention the famously survivable ectopic pregnancies!

No big deal indeed.
