He is, but he’s now more of a mouthpiece figurehead for a grotesque movement. He himself doesn’t care about this stuf
This touches on my question about this change in classification of nursing. What is the point of doing it and who does it benefit? To me, MAGA and the conservative movement seem to just be a power grab with little to no governing ability. This just seems to be another example of that.He is, but he’s now more of a mouthpiece figurehead for a grotesque movement. He himself doesn’t care about this stuff.
I recently read someone saying the GOP has no ideology other than demonstrating they have power over people they feel threatened by. That description rang true for me.This touches on my question about this change in classification of nursing. What is the point of doing it and who does it benefit?

The problem is that they feel threatened by everybody, including other Christians. I say that because there is some allegiance among all of them to those principles. Principles being a keyword since they are so intransigent even 200 different denominations and 45000 denomination worldwide can't hold their views considering all the sects, cults, independent ministries and storefront churches there are in addition. So you might as well say that their ideology is much like their theology. It's whatever makes them feel most special and favored.I recently read someone saying the GOP has no ideology other than demonstrating they have power over people they feel threatened by.

After his first term several polls of historians rated him either dead last or consistently among our 3 worst presidents (along with James Buchanan and Andrew Johnson). I expect after he finally leaves office for good - either through death or term limits - he will have solidified his place as our very worst president. The only person who is probably happy about Trump is George W. Bush, as his presidency was also rated very poorly (and with justification) until Trump came along and was even worse, so attention shifted to him. Our 21st Century GOP Presidents have both been abysmal failures, with Trump clearly being the worst.My daughter is planning to major in nursing in college (which starts next year). The plan was for me to cover college anyway so this won’t affect her.
Trump really is the worst president of my lifetime. And I don’t think it is close.
Agreed, but I'd add that a huge motivation for the Trump GOP is deep resentment and pure hatred and jealousy of America's college-educated professional classes, and a powerful desire to make them suffer and lower them to their level of economic frustration and failure. MAGA is basically working-class white America going to war with our professional classes - lawyers, doctors, scientists, teachers, engineers, white-collar office workers and managers, people who now work online from home, and above all college professors. They literally hate all of these people because they often make more money, live in better homes and neighborhoods, live in cities that are thriving while very often their towns are dying or at best economically stagnant, and so on. And they are convinced these people are social snobs who look down on them as worthless ignorant white trash, and so they want to destroy their careers and lives as much as possible. And Trump is their instrument of revenge on these people, which is why they love him so much.I recently read someone saying the GOP has no ideology other than demonstrating they have power over people they feel threatened by.
