      I’m a native New Yorker.

      I got to watch him go from local joke to national menace.

      I have had a decade of this, and I still can’t wrap my mind around the fact that anyone could look at that creature and see anything but garbage.

        I’m of a similar mind but worse, I supported him in 2016! But man as I’ve grown up I’ve realized how insane he is and how fucked we are.

        he was helped out by years of billionaire media support. There’s a strong argument to be made that billionaires bought this election.
