For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

I skimmed it. Got angry, and stopped reading bcz i wa incredulous that we'd be so stupid as to elect someone promising to enact it.

Haha yeah. Sound about right. I've been back and forth into it and have to take breaks. Living in actual cognitive dissonance is so fucking anxiety inducing.

He repeatedly said that he had no idea what it was during the campaign.

Edit: just repeating what he said, I don't believe anything that comes out his mouth

Yeah, it's always been like that. He takes 2 sides on every issue so he can wink to the Nazis while also appeasing the 'moderate' Republicans that only care about low taxes (and they don't actually care when Trump ends up doing the crazy thing anyway, all they care about is being able to say 'i didn't know he was going to do that!').

Not good enough. There are lives on the line, ffs, you don't run for President on that shit. Especially since he didn't even make it clear it was considered to most of the voters.
