I saw part 1 last week and couldn't believe this guy was just so unstable and such a narcissist.
It's a jaw dropping programme.
Is it really a surprise?
I'm sure that several of us described him as a sociopath, malignant narcissist etc etc at various points in this thread. His character was well known before the election, it's not like he was an unknown Congressman from Buttfuck, USA.

What planet have you been living on?
Shouldn't all Trump comments should now be moved to his Chump thread and leave this one to discuss Biden's presidency?
So because she's been seen by herself, she divorcing the old fart, what kind of nonsense story is that. lol.
Biden's done the right thing there, Texas got hit hard, hopefully people understand...it's called climate change!
Ted Cruz fucked off to Mexico in the middle of it and only returned when he got called out by everyone, meanwhile AOC raised a load of money within a few hours to help out struggling Texans, who has their priorities right I wonder. Hmmm.
^ Greg Abbott the Republican Governor of Texas went on Fox during the week & blamed the power cuts on the failure of Wind Power Turbines & The Green New Deal which is a Democratic proposal. Well The Green New Deal is just a proposal at the moment so had no impact and Wind Power only provides less than 20% of Texas power & in Alaska their Turbines operate in all temperatures all year round. It’s subsequently been admitted that all other Texan power generation systems like gas pipelines had major issues as well.
The Texan power market is deregulated so the power companies skimp on contingency systems to maximise profits. Oh and they use dynamic pricing so if there is greater demand you all pay more for your power it seems which will no doubt mean that they’ve made greater profits during this crisis.
Texas is not connected to the national grid because they don't want 'Federal interference' in the way they run things. The power problems are all their own.
And yeah, Ted Cruz
During the California wildfires last summer he tweeted..
Quote: California is now unable to perform even basic functions of civilization, like having reliable electricity.
Biden/Harris/AOC want to make CA’s failed energy policy the standard nationwide.
Hope you don’t like air conditioning!
