America Has Spoken

And they chose a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist billionaire who
  • denies climate change (despite every climate scientist, whose job it is to show it doesn't exist, finding that it beyond a doubt does - it's important to stress that this shouldn't even be a political issue, it's like a barometer for idiocy);
  • wants to abolish the Department of Education (which was started in order to combat the US's failure to keep up with the rest of the world in terms of education, and provides funding to public schools, aid to students and collects data on US education for the sake of improving the education system);
  • wants to put an antivax conspiracy theorist in charge of public health, who is against things like fluoride in the water (ask your dentist how stupid this sounds);
  • wants to enact tariffs that 23 Nobel Prize winning economists agree will be a disaster for the US economy (I guess no one learned from his previous term, where he gave huge corporations a permanent, trillion dollar tax cut and disproportionately cut taxes for the upper class, hurting the lower and middle classes in the long run and inflating the deficit);
  • has been constantly ripped apart by the people close to him, including many of his top advisors from his first term and even his own running mate;
  • attempted to incite a coup d'état when he lost the 2020 election, which ended in multiple deaths and over a hundred injured (which he has never taken any responsibility for - these are YOUR supporters);
  • falsely claimed that Haitian immigrants were "eating people's pets", which he softly rescinded in an interview as soon as he wanted support from Latin American voters;
  • etc.
On top of all of this, he's utterly vile: doing crude gestures with the mic at rallies, saying terrible, disgusting things about women, minorities and veterans, constantly spewing nothing but hatred and vitriol to rile up his base... I just don't understand it. How could America let this happen? What possessed the majority of Americans to vote for this? I feel terrible for the Americans who have to watch their country get wrung dry by ignorance and radicalism. I guess there's no choice but to just see what happens though.
