Every person that enabled this can get fucked, and there are a lot of you out there, from voters to legislators, to the media that covered the candidacy and Presidency of 45 as a ratings goldmine and abdicated their responsibility with every damn “both sides” article, corporations that donated to these monsters, and Democratic legislators who have sat on their hands and done NOTHING.
