I mean, of all the things about Trump this is the one element I just don't get: he's some kind of super Lex Luthor/Tony Stark hyper-genius and his plans are so complex and convoluted that we just can't possibly understand it.
Is it a spin off of the religiosity of many Republicans? The whole "God is responsible for everything even the bad stuff but he has a plan behind everything and that plan is good so therefore all the bad things are actually good things?"
Or is it a cover for the fact that deep down they find Trump to be totally whacked, but they've been using what they're selling they couldn't possibly fathom that they made a mistake?
Or maybe it's more simple and just a fancy spin on "Our guy good, your guy bad."
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.

"Law and Order", lots of places have had that, Russia, North Korea, Saddam's Iraq.
Laws can be made to enforce order of cruelty and brutality.
Equality and Justice, that is how you have peace and a society that benefits all.
I want to remind you that his legal team held a press conference outside of a dirty garage this morning because they mixed up Four Seasons Hotel and Four Seasons Total Landscaping while booking. Two days ago his lawyers got chewed out live on FOX News for their incompetence.
They're not playing 4-D chess. They're playing tic-tac-toe, and they're losing.
So, I was reading some of the bullshit tweets from this post, and this hilarious one caught my eye: https://twitter.com/TimRunsHisMouth/...87500449288192
What is funny about it, is this reply in the comments that quotes this from the website:
