I think it’s a crying shame that Donald Trump was even on the list of presidential rankings in the first place. To see that he placed last, behind even James Buchanan who helped start the Civil War, is quite telling. The fact that history buffs also agree that Trump is the absolute worst just solidifies what many of us have known all along. He truly is a President that will go down in history as the worst of the worst.
Even when comparing Trump to historical figures like William Henry Harrison, who fell ill and died just 31 days into his administration without accomplishing anything of note, Trump still ranks lower.… Continue reading
I can’t help but shake my head in disbelief at the recent news regarding the GoFundMe fundraiser aimed at helping Donald Trump pay off his legal fines. The sheer audacity of individuals donating their hard-earned money to a man who claims to be a billionaire is truly mind-boggling. With fines amounting to a staggering $438 million, the fact that this fundraiser was only able to raise a mere $82,000 in one day speaks volumes.
It is disheartening to see Trump supporters pouring their money into a cause that will not make a dent in the actual fines but rather only cover the accruing interest.… Continue reading
The recent mockery of E. Jean Carroll by Donald Trump at a Michigan rally is not only distasteful but also alarming. The fact that he continues to ridicule someone he just lost a sexual assault lawsuit to shows a complete lack of empathy and decency. While some may find his behavior entertaining, it is crucial to remember the gravity and implications of such actions from a person in a position of power.
It is disheartening to witness the Republican voters at the rally laughing along with Trump’s mocking remarks. This normalization of disrespect towards victims of assault is not only disturbing but also perpetuates a culture of insensitivity and ignorance.… Continue reading
I find it absolutely appalling that Nikki Haley would openly declare that she would pardon Donald Trump if elected president. This blatant disregard for the rule of law and the Constitution is a clear indication of where her priorities lie – with a corrupt and criminal individual rather than with the American people she is supposed to serve. It is evident that tough-on-crime Republicans only show their allegiance to those who fit a certain profile, completely ignoring justice for all.
The fact that a potential president can only issue pardons for federal crimes raises serious concerns about Haley’s judgment and understanding of her role in upholding the law.… Continue reading
As I perused through the results of the recent poll ranking the presidents, I couldn’t help but be struck by the placement of Joe Biden as the 14th-best president and, perhaps unsurprisingly, Donald Trump at the very bottom of the list. The disparity between the two leaves one wondering how we got to a point where such juxtaposition could even be a possibility. Reflecting on Trump’s tumultuous time in office, it’s clear that his actions were divisive, destructive, and detrimental to the very fabric of our democracy. From his mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic to his perpetuation of falsehoods and lies, it’s no wonder that historians and political science scholars would rank him as the least effective president.… Continue reading
It’s a strange feeling to find oneself agreeing with Russian state TV, especially when it comes to mocking Donald Trump supporters. Maxim Yusin, a Russian journalist and political commentator, hit the nail on the head when he said, “The majority of people who vote for Trump are not very smart primitive people with whom you need to talk like this, with cliches and dumb slogans.” And, as much as I hate to admit it, he’s not wrong.
When I see the blind loyalty and unwavering support that some Trump supporters display, it’s hard not to see where Yusin is coming from.… Continue reading
I cannot help but laugh at the irony in the stark contrast between Abraham Lincoln being hailed as the best U.S. president ever and Donald Trump being deemed the worst, all according to historians in a recent poll. The sheer magnitude of the difference in their legacies is staggering and speaks volumes about the leadership qualities and values embodied by each man.
Abraham Lincoln, revered for his unwavering commitment to preserving the union and ultimately abolishing slavery, stands as a shining example of a president who was willing to endure immense hardships to uphold the principles of freedom and equality. His legacy is one of unity, resilience, and compassion, qualities that are sorely lacking in the political landscape of today.… Continue reading
As I sit here and read about the latest development in the ongoing saga of Donald Trump’s legal battles, I can’t help but shake my head in disbelief. The fact that a GoFundMe campaign was started to raise money for Trump’s exorbitant $355 million penalty is both absurd and disheartening. In just 24 hours, the campaign managed to raise a mere $84,000, which is less than a drop in the bucket compared to the total amount needed. The sheer magnitude of the funds required is mind-boggling, and it’s hard to fathom how anyone could believe that donating to such a cause is a good idea.… Continue reading
Age and criminal history are two significant factors to consider when evaluating a potential leader for our country. When we look at the current situation with Joe Biden and Donald Trump, it’s evident that the choice isn’t easy. We have Biden, who is 81 years old, but has a clean record and has demonstrated a commitment to the country and its people. On the other hand, we have Trump, who is almost 78 and has a staggering 91 felony counts against him, not to mention his divisive rhetoric and behavior during his time in office.
As mentioned by Swalwell, I would also choose the person with less felony counts over someone who has 91 against them.… Continue reading
David Hogg, a survivor of the tragic Parkland shooting, has once again made waves by trolling former president Donald Trump’s latest business venture. Hogg recently purchased a website domain related to Trump’s new sneaker brand and redirected visitors to an anti-gun violence platform. This bold move showcases Hogg’s unwavering dedication to advocating for gun safety legislation, despite facing backlash and threats for his activism.
The fact that Hogg took the initiative to buy a domain referencing Trump’s sneakers and turn it into a gun safety website is not only clever but also symbolic. It serves as a poignant reminder that activism can take many forms, including using humor and satire to shed light on important issues.… Continue reading
