And, so far, Trump's been able to not only stay afloat but prosper. In a sane world, his political career would have been sunk almost as fast as it began. That's what's most frustrating.
To see him continue to get away with egregious error (to put it nicely) after egregious error makes my blood boil. Trump lies more than any person I can think of, he brags about sexually assaulting women, he indicated that nearly all Mexican immigrants are "rapists and drug dealers," he's committed massive fraud (e.g., Trump University), he never released his tax returns, he surrounds himself with and nominates overt racists, he nominates individuals to run agencies/departments that they despise, he suggested violence against his political opponent, his speeches are substanceless ("We're looking at jobs--big league jobs."
and virtually incoherent ("word salad" is how some have described his statements), he makes comments as outlandish as anything said by President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho, he repeatedly evades questions (such as when asked for some indication as to what will replace the ACA), he mocked and denied mocking a reporter with a disability, etc., etc., etc.
And I haven't even mentioned the Russia connection.
But the Republican Party normalizes Trump. The mainstream media normalizes Trump.
It's beyond surreal. The greatest fiction writer in the world couldn't top this.
