Here is a man who has demonstrated that one not need talent, nor discipline, nor intellect to rise to this nation’s greatest heights. There’s a truly Trumpian life lesson to learned here.

The question now is what happens next? Will our most thin-skinned political leaders accept opposition from a bunch of snot-nosed nerds?

Maybe some of you are thinking that if we do a do-over for this election, we’ll just end up doing one every single time a politician makes a goof. It’s a reasonable concern, but these are not reasonable times.

As Donald Trump’s administration continues its efforts to tear apart our country, we must find the fun—and fight for freedom—in every moment.

Clearly, Trump’s warmongering Cabinet members are taking the phrase “it all goes down in the group chat” too far. Where’s a red flag emoji when you need one?

Whether you personally believe or not doesn’t matter. What does is the fact that many of the people walking the halls of power in America do, and they’re making decisions based on that belief.

Trump’s “Make America Great Again” movement is not anchored by a cogent philosophy, because it doesn’t need to be.

Democrats were delirious, Republicans were boiling over—and Americans should all be feeling rather queasy. Don’t plan on a vaccine for this malaise either.

Maybe this moment was inevitable. Maybe we had to land on this rocky place before we could take the slow, hard steps forward.
