    When Bush was elected, his main concern was revenge on Saddam. When Trump was elected, his main objective was to show what he would have done during the 08 financial crisis instead of what Obama had done.

    The next republican president will probably be obsessed with getting revenge for the pandemic. It’s what they do and why they can’t govern.

      Cruelty is the point. That’s all that guides the right. The base, anyway. The elite just want corporate rule and tax cuts for themselves.

      No it wasn’t. It was to destabilize the country at the behest of Vladimir Putin.
