Going full **[Rodrigo Duterte - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodrigo_Duterte)** now. I sure as hell hope that when somebody signals as clearly as this what he truly is, the rest of the USA listens to him and believes him. Hitler explained it all in a long tedious book most Germans had never heard of, much less read. This sort of publication is a bit harder to miss or to ignore. ---

Nah. Duterte actually had and implemented an infrastructure program. This is beyond Trumps limited ability ---

What, you don’t consider building an isolated mile of border wall a worthy infrastructure project? Just think of all the yuge and great photo ops in front of that new wall; the best photo ops ever. ---

> [@smithsb](#): > > He’s promised bringing back mass executions (televised to boot) and firing squads. And televising them. he really is a monster. The cartoonishness of his evil is only matched by the catroonishness of his incompetence. He’s only really good at two things-- whipping his followers into a frenzy, and hurting people he doesn’t like. Unfortunately those happen to be the two things that have gotten him this far. ---

> [@solost](#): > > trump will really have his work cut out for him getting back to draining that swamp if he’s reelected. If he drains the swamp into Californian forests, the fires will go out. Genius! BTW: Mar-e-Cage means _swamp_ in French. I only added the dashes. Apart from that, it is true. Really. > [@smithsb](#): > > He’s promised bringing back mass executions (televised to boot) and firing squads. And televising them. I can think of one execution that would have the best ratings ever. ---
