    Not going to lie though, once Trump no longer has even nominal control of the football, I'm going to breathe a huge sigh of relief.

    This is the song I will have in the background when he's out of office.

    Which song will you guys and gals have playing when the moron leaves office tomorrow?

    He is the worst by a wide margin. He is not a serious person, empowered the worst of this country and many saw this coming. During his four years, he proved to be unfit for office. At least other bad presidents read a briefing book.

    "Absentee president" is one of the most succinct descriptions of Trump I've seen. And it came from the poster known for his lengthy posts! Kudos @The Big Ragu.

    I stand corrected. It’ll be 10 years for all. Pretty shrewd and cynical on Biden’s part, an 8-year plan. Keeps the voting bloc in line for another presidential race.

    Citizenship as a political carrot.

    But it was buried in the midst of my War and Peace post.

    I said this early on, probably on this thread. Trump's idea of being president was the pomp and circumstance -- he wanted military parades and to give people medals, and more than anything he wanted adulation. He had no interest (or ability to) in doing the actual job. Even worse than that, though, he didn't do what lots of presidents have done to a degree, which is to turn over the responsibilities to others. Instead, he would just randomly fuck with things like he was a mercurial king issuing decrees.

    If he had only BEEN an "absentee president," he wouldn't have been 1/10 as bad.

    Of course, in all functions involving any more effort than hoisting his zeppelin ass off the golden toilet or jiggling his fingers on the tweet machine, he has been precisely that.
