I remember when he was popular I would get downvoted to hell for pointing out he was full of shit. He’s a silver spoon, oligarch nepo baby who wears hoodies and shorts to pretend he’s one of us, he isn’t.

I would point out how disingenuous he was and how the other shoe would drop after he was elected and people would report me to mods

Yeah, people didn't much care for me stating that he would be another Kyrsten Sinema. I remember when people were enthused for her because she was gay and weird, as if someone who's gay and weird could never, ever be a right-wing asshole.

I realized it early on and didn’t vote for him but my wife did. All I had to do is find out where he stood on Palestine. Palestine has been my litmus test for how truly progressive a candidate is. So when the genocide started and he revealed himself for the ghoul he really was, I wasn’t surprised.
