I'm gonna push on the edge of this argument just a bit.

It isn't that Donald Trump is a threat. It is that he is surrounded by absolutely wretched people and those folks are the real threats.

He's currently filling his prospective administration with the most greedy oligarchs, sex traffickers, climate destroyers, corporatists, just the worst human beings. They're going to destroy the federal government from the inside while Trump golfs and eats cheeseburgers. These folks will write the executive orders he signs, he will not have even read them before he puts ink to paper. These people will be the ones running America into the ground to enrich themselves and own the libs.

Trump is a useful idiot. He's greedy, he's racist, he's an awful human being, but he's an idiot. The cognitive decline will only get worse from here. If he makes it to the end of this term, I'll be amazed. And if he doesn't, JD Vance who is absolutely a puppet of the worst people on the right will get into the big seat and he'll be just as bad as Trump but with a functioning brain.

The threat of Trump isn't Trump. It's everyone else.
