 This Article  nicely sums up everything anyone needs to know about Donald John Trump (Inmate Number: P01135809).  For example:

Trump University was a diploma mill at which students could supposedly earn real degrees (on the topic of real estate) from random people Trump himself had never met in exchange for an exorbitant "tuition".  (The institution was basically run independently of him, though he received a cut for allowing them to use his name).  The "institution's" claim to offer degrees was in violation of New York law, and in 2014, the New York Supreme Court held that Trump was personally liable for running an unlicensed school and making false promises through his "university".  In 2016, Judge Curiel ruled that Trump must face a civil trial for fraud and racketeering under RICO.  This is the case in which Trump attacked a "Mexican" judge's ancestry (the judge is from Indiana) because he didn’t like the ruling.

Oh, and did we neglect to mention that Donald John Trump is a blatant racist, sexist, and homophobe?

Reminds me of the face of some bullies, trying their best to find any moral flaws in the person being attacked. If not, laugh at his identity flaw.

How bad is Trump?

Time to unearth this classic, I think -

In short, he is a pathological liar and a narcissist, as well as the things funeralxempire mentioned earlier on in the thread.

His policies are terrible for the United States as well as anything.

That's what a lot of it boils down to. The man has a deeply malignant personality and all other reasons provided are just examples of him acting the way a guy like him is expected to act.

It sure seems possible, no matter how many people act like worry about that is an overreaction.

I saw an article where Trump was quoted as having said something along the lines of his opposition "poisoning the blood of the country". If that is true, it seems very like something Hitler would say.

No. He said "illegal immigrants are poisoning the blood of America".
Though he has had plenty to say about his native born critics too.

Wanting to crack down on illegals is one thing, and even wanting control the number of legals is one thing. But making a scape goat of illegals as evil people is another. He always done that. But this talk about "poisoning the blood of America" crosses a further line because it echoes how Hitler spoke of the Jews.

Senate border security talks grind on as Trump invokes Nazi-era ‘blood’ rhetoric against immigrants

By LISA MASCARO and STEPHEN GROVES
Updated 12:14 AM GMT+8, December 19, 2023

WASHINGTON (AP) — . . . Donald Trump, the Republican presidential front-runner in 2024, delivered alarming anti-immigrant remarks about “blood” purity over the weekend, echoing Nazi slogans of World War II at a political rally.

"They’re poisoning the blood of our country," Trump said about the record numbers of immigrants coming to the U.S. without immediate legal status.

Ah, so he was talking about immigrants then? Even worse! :o

It's rare for me to feel that the negative consequences of liquidating a politician are less than the negative consequences of not doing so, but with TFG I'm really leaning towards his demise being a net positive.

Indeed, because you'll never get the exact same monster twice.

But we must remember, Hitler actually won the popular vote, and wrote his own book.

Not to mention Hitler became leader of Germany despite being imprisoned for the Beer Hall Putsch.

Trump could so easily do the same even if he goes to prison given all the support he has from both politicians and voters.
