Every so often someone must wake up and realize that they voted to make a pedophile rapist the most powerful person in the world and he is using that power to steal everything he can and crush every decent person who opposes him. Maybe that’s just too hard to accept so they pretend not to understand

It’s unbelievably depressing to know that I am going to die in the world that horrible man helped create; that the culture I have to endure is the mirror of his awful, awful personality, and that I’m stuck for the next couple of decades having to be surrounded by it.
