      Remember when he said, “24 hours after he’d be president, he’d have peace?”

      That’s part of a desensitization strategy where trumpy makes outlandish claims nobody takes seriously so if he manages to deliver on a single one out of hundreds of such, he’s celebrated as a visionary. So republicans are measured by their successes and Democrats are measured by their failures, no matter how low those rates may be for each.

      Yeah but on one hand you hold the possibility of peace and in the other rampant profiteering.

      For an absolute scumbag the choice is obvious, no?
