I'm so bored.
Trump is a sex offender. He's also a convicted criminal. He is also completely devoid of ethics or morality.
But because of the car crash that is American politics, you have to address all of this through the theatre of the set of documents associated with the world's most infamous paedophile (who also appears to be his best mate).
It's exhausting.
Well, I'm just an onlooker, so I don't have any influence on U.S. politics. I'm just constantly astonished that the U.S. people would vote for such a charlatan. Twice.
The problem is you’re getting all your information from the internet (I’ll bet social media?).
The impact of that is on display in this very thread. Random unproven accusations, conspiracy theories and repetition of “facts” that have been disproven long ago.
If your goal is to educate yourself about the US leadership, or really any subject, you’re not going to do it by what you see on social media.
Your post isn't really doing anything apart from casting general doubt. Can you be more specific please?
Are there more reliable sources of information that you can point to?

Every person who has been out in the world had to deal with a Trump like person in the workplace or wherever .
And people don't like it, as a matter of fact they despise it, he's only kept afloat by those who fail to connect the abusive bullying behavior of DJT with their own personal experience with a similar character and those who enjoy bullying or are paitiently waiting in line to do some bullying.

Social media and tech companies are effectively helping external actors (and malicious internal actors) to break western democracy.
Quite - that's been patently obvious since the Cambridge Analytica scandal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook%E2%80%93Cambridge_Ana...
Ultimately, there's a war between the haves and the have-nots and one side clearly has more resources.

Yes, that is the final observation needed in the proof that open societies are more brittle than those led by dictators.
