    I can see his point. Rooting for Trump to fail means rooting for things to get terrible for a lot of Americans.

    Trump failed on Covid and people died.

      Trump succeeded on COVID. Solidifying his base to confirm his death cult was his success.

      His success is our failure. Our priorities are not aligned.

      Trump failed because he was empowered to fail.

      as a leader in the nation it’s his responsibility to give feedback from his constituency to his leader.

      wishing him failure or success is meaningless in the eye of his voters, and his comments are merely signaling to the GOP that he won’t be an obstacle to them.

        Trump is not congress’s leader, though.

        Congress is co-equal. Or at least it’s supposed to be.

        He was elected for his supposedly progressive policies which trump wasnthrougly elected to oppose.

        You see how that’s supposed to go, yes?
