It seems a bit premature to think that Trump is anything but a paper tiger who will fold like some cheap, folding thing who folds cheaply when his bluff is called. Credit where credit is due, given the current situation, I would rather have a cowardly bully in office than an approval-seeking establishment Democrat eager to show that Democrats can be strong too. I’m glad Trump is a coward, I just hope he’s not too dogshit dumb to fuck that up. ---

Coward doesn’t mean anything. Presidents themselves are never in physical danger. That’s why it’s so easy for them to start a war. They _should_ be on the frontlines, but they never are. ---

They _should_ be on the frontlines, but they never are.

The great thing about being a Trump supporter or a third party voter is that they are fucking morons and fucking morons always change their facts to keep the same conclusion rather than let facts lead them to their conclusions. ---

> [@HMS\_Irruncible](#): > > Credit where credit is due, given the current situation, I would rather have a cowardly bully in office than an approval-seeking establishment Democrat eager to show that Democrats can be strong too. The problem with this that I see if that the cowardly bully could get embroiled in wars that are of the _enemy’s_ choosing, while the hawk Democrat could get embroiled in wars of the \*hawk Democrat’s \*choosing. If the hawk Democrat has good reliable advisers and listens to them, this could be about as optimal as wars get, for the U.S. The cowardly bully in this case \*doesn’t \*have good advisers, and wouldn’t listen even if he did. ---
