Hardly matters. President Trump can do anything, shoot a man on Fifth Avenue, call our honored dead "losers," lie to us and hope the epidemic will go away. No matter what he does a lot of Americans will support him.

But i like when people admit their wrongs even if it doesn't get that kind of attention anyway.

Admitting wrongs is actually a proof of character strength but in Trump this is the only example i know so far.

Usually when he gets debunked he starts bullshitting. And because he does that so much (all day and night on any critical question) people believe the bs he is talking. This does not only tell me something about Trump himself but even more about the people that vote for him.

All of them are quite the "simple" humans.

Resistance becomes a duty when you live in a police state.

Why is Assange in jail, but Clinton isn't?

Why did Snowden throw away his life to warn Americans about the dangers of tyranny?

How can officials and the Gestapo take an oath to defend the Constitution and then violate it everyday? Is a paycheck more important than freedom?

I cannot prove it, but I suspect both Snowden and Assage are Russian agents.
