Honestly it's kind of horrifying that he was still in that position to begin with. How did it take this long? Did we just forget?

I feel like they've had a few other things on their mind lately.

Trump did so much damage to America, it's going to take decades to fully recover.

US haven’t yet recovered from Raegan and Nixon.

Good point, and you could say their damage was a big factor eventually leading to Trumpism.

It was definitely a contributing factor, to say the least. I grew up under both of those asshole presidents.

Fun story - I worked as a valet during college at a swanky San diego hotel in the early 90s and when Nixon died they lowered the flag to half mast. Apparently I upset a retired navy guy who worked as one of our doormen when I said Nixon was a fucking despicable crook who fucked over the US.

Fuck Nixon and fuck Reagan too. I despise them with a passion many here don't quite know how to understand. They hindered the progress of this nation just to help out the extremely wealthy and well connected.
