And yet I found it completely predictable.

Trump is so goddamn American: a boorish bully who thinks they’re the best when really he’s a fat idiot.

We absolutely deserve him. It’s a shame he’ll hurt other countries.

Anyone who has to stop the whole conversation to lecture the other participant about how they need to be showing more respect right now, is almost invariably a piece of shit.

People who genuinely earn respect don't feel the need to instruct people in how to show it and correct them on it if they aren't.

one of the most annoying parts is they kept asking him questions, tons and tons of questions, berating him from running and hiding from the questions, but the literal second he would try to answer or say anything, they'd just yell over him and cut him off. it is almost painful to watch.
