^ This.

I would perhaps add to that a blatant failure to do enough about the drug problems and the quite outrageous gun crime issues that blight the nation.
His response to the Coronavirus has been complacent, ineffectual and disingenuous.
I draw the same conclusion in respect of growing racial tension issues.
At best he has misunderstood underlying issues and taken the strength of feelings out of context. At worst he has shown no inclination to even try to understand and no compassion.

This presidency has laboured in self obsession, isolationism, disrespect, gross incompetence and a constant refusal to accept responsibility, and accountability for endless error.
What began with the ultimate in self congratulation for gaining the presidency on the basis of an anti establishment ticket was followed by a complete failure and abdication of responsibility in key policy areas. Particularly egregious examples include his attempted destruction of The Affordable Care Act which represents a moral disgrace to the poorest and most disadvantaged in society.
He has also given a consistent impression of living in denial about climate change and the effects thereof while doing his usual trick of blaming other countries for environmental pollution above his own.

Trumps first term in office can now be seen to represent a complete and abject failure to address key social and welfare issues.
He has treated the Presidency like a TV reality show and a near daily rally.
He has debased his office and lost ridiculous numbers of his own administration in the process.
A term set against the backdrop of allegations of Russian interference helping Trump win office in 2016.
Time and again the man has proven himself totally unfit for such high office on matters of both substance and profundity.

In reality this is not a case of replacing Trump with a loony left mob Rolleyesbladewave.
This is about restoring some common decency to arguably the highest office in the democratic free world. It is about seeing some value in global co-operation and partnership to try to resolve issues that affect all of humanity.
A realization that isolationist bigotry and power grabbing is not the answer for America or the world.
Trump does everything to divide and rule rather than engage and incentivise.
In this era, given the problems the world faces, this is not only misguided but morally vacuous and fraught with danger. For the sake of democracy, for the sake of any hope of progression towards greater equality and quite frankly for the sake of humanity a change is badly needed.
Halloween is almost here again laugh

While I'm at it, I'd also like to agree wholeheartedly with the whole Trump/Columbus comparison:

Didn't know where he was going.
When he got there, didn't realise where he was.
When he got back, had no idea where he'd been.
...and he did it all with borrowed money.


(F*** me! Trump really is like Columbus!)

Not quite. I wasn't feeling confident of a Trump victory in 2016 because most of us thought it would be inconceivable that he'd win. The knowledge we have now is that he DID upset the odds and I can take comfort in that.

As for Columbus, at least he was going somewhere. We don't produce explorers anymore. Now we produce loser SJW statue toppers who want to tear the West down.

Cool story bro. If anyone wants to complain about crime and drug problems, which are issues predating Trump's Presidency, they can lay the blame at the Democrats' door. Detroit, Portland, Minneapolis, Ferguson, New York, LA, all of these are Democrat s-holes.
The state with the highest violent crime rate per 100,000 people is Alaska (Republican)

Of the top ten states for violent crime, 3 are Democratic, and 7 are Republican.

The state with the lowest violent crime rate is Maine (Democratic)

Of the ten states lowest for violent crime, 7 are Democratic, and 3 are Republican.
At the urban level, Detroit and Minneapolis are near the top but all those other "Democrat s-holes" have violent crime rates below the national average.

This time last year I spent two weeks in NYC. I visited four of the five boroughs and walked the soles of my shoes off.

I was really struck by a few things. The place was immaculate. They've turned almost every square foot of waterfront into public space. There were places that 20 years ago would have been considered "no go" areas (e.g. Harlem, Washington Heights, Bryant Park, the Bronx) that now felt like real communities. There were far, far more independent shops than brands and franchises.

A lot of this is gentrification, which has its own problems, but -- by and large -- NYC has so much for Londoners like me to admire. On the plane ride home I actually found myself fantasising about ways I might be able to get a Green Card and a job in order to trade London for New York.

The very notion of NYC being a crime infested s-hole is just patently false. People protested -- mostly peacefully and mostly with justification -- for two weeks in the summer of 2020. Parts of that protest got 'looty' and violent. That's it.

This whole narrative of "cities on fire" is just ridiculous.

It's just sad that people believe it.
Trump not happy with Barr now.

It's probably got to the stage now, for a lot of people, that getting sacked by Trump is the only way they might be able to save their career.
