    To be fair, he drained the swamp. We probably should’ve asked him if he’d fill it with raw sewage afterwords, but that’s a different topic

    Man, I love The Good Liars. They are great at improv and quite adept at disarming Trump supporters and getting them to say stupid things.

    With that said, the hallmark of the Trump presidency to me was that the good things he did were generally for the wrong reasons, like when he redeployed the US military from Syria and snatched money that was budgeted for various military projects to build his stupid wall.

    It’s only ever been about vibes*, and that’s totally good enough for these folks who have made Trump their identity. Trump could come right out and say that he has no plans at all, but that voting for him would make the libs and minorities and LBTQ+ folks upset… and his polling wouldn’t change. It’s only about the vibes*.

    * “Vibes” is used here to mean thinly-veiled racism, sexism and bigotry
