The Religious Right in control of social policies
The separation of families who are legally seeking asylum in the US (with the kids being held in what a sitting senator described as dog cages)
A trade policy that coddles the Chinese and punishes our closest allies (was thinking about this today because we’re screwing Canada and the UK, aka the two countries who equally shared in the sacrifice and victory at Normandy).
A tax plan that gave away the farm to business and the 1% while giving a tax hike via elimination of the SALT deduction to people who live in places that didn’t vote for him
Encouraged actual Nazis in Charlottesville
I could go on.
