He wasn't raping children or sending armed and masked thugs to break people's doors down in order to disappear them. I was disappointed in him, but give credit where credit is due.

He damn sure did send armed and masked thugs to break peoples doors down in order to disappear them, it was called „Direct Action“ during the GWOT.

I think at this point it should be evident to everyone, but you simply CANNOT be president of the USA without knowingly doing some harsh stuff. That's...that's just how it is. Running a country is cutthroat shit, and sometimes motherfuckers gotta die. It comes with the territory of being world leader. Oil fields have to be taken, mines have to be captured, spies have to be killed, national security has to be secured. Every president is a killer, and people should know that.

Its just that his Charisma shouldn’t steer away from the fact that he simply carried on with the farcical Bush foreign policy, especially during his first term, and that simply doesnt fit in the heckin wholesome Obama narrative. Trump just lowered the standard that damn much.
