    I really have lost sympathy for any and all Republicans.

    Trump’s actions aren’t merely soulless and evil, they are stupid. They run contrary to the interests of the United States on every conceivable level. Prices rise, others countries lose faith in us, our enemies extend their power over our allies. Even Trump’s professed goals, such as combating China’s power in international trade, aren’t accomplished by his actions, considering he’s putting a heavier tariff on Taiwan than the PRC.

    Having sympathy for a Trump voter is like having sympathy for a grown adult who licks an electric socket. It’s a waste of energy. You’re putting more value on their survival than they are.
