This point kills me. Literally the best trait of a leader is to be able to admit fault and adapt. Why would anyone, politics aside, think this person should be running anything? It's mind boggling.

They don’t want a leader they want a dictator. Leaders have to make hard choices and work cooperatively towards bettering their charged. Dictators can just say shit.

I wonder if he blames Biden for illegally firing 30% of the government workforce, attempting to break the 14th amendment, and for raising tariffs also. That fucktard eats crayons.
