Not American so dismiss my opinion freely, just the way i see it from the outside. He defo was the only option to choose in both past elections. However, i do wonder if he was indeed controlled oppo and the entire plan was for him to setup his voter base (ie normal fuckin tax paying Americans) to be labeled as rioters and white extremists so they could begin initiating domestic terrorism bullshit. I don't think the guy was ever particularly well spoken, good role model or whatever. Just came across as an egotistical arrogant cunt with some fuckin weird takes on things. Not even in a good alpha male kinda way more just like aloof rich dickhead. He could have made proper arguments against the left, the press and made sure they were seen for what they were, instead of kinda pointless twitter sniping that didnt go anywhere. Only made it appear like he was crying wolf with the fake news claims all the time (which obviously werent false claims) but when it really mattered for the fake news to be called out i think the people in the middle no longer listened. He did seem like the only one that actually loved America though which you would think is a fucking given for being president but y'know obviously not. End of the day i dont think it matters to much. He and he alone had the power to turn things around on that day of the protests, it probably needed to be a riot and a mass arrest of politicians etc for things to change in any meaningful way, but it wasn't, it literally was a peaceful protest and whether he didnt have the guts to go through with it or as i suspect had to much to lose with family, money etc idk. Those jews he pardoned on his exit though was very telling. All that said he was still the only sensible choice and should currently be president still if there was any election integrity what so ever.
