People coming here to say this don't seem to understand we hate both candidates, vast majority of American politicians and the entire American political system.
I am personally not in the West and the identity of the president affects nothing here. I do know trans people in America and I was hoping Kamala would win, even if I was too disgusted by her stance on Palestine, until I learned her actions as a prosecutor and "we should follow the law" statement on trans people, showing she would not be a hardliner on trans issues. That was the one advantage she might've had over Trump.
It is because the candidates are both hateworthy and ghoulish that it's funny to laugh at people who are convinced one of them is morally pure or advantageous for the average person. We also had a few laughs at chuds who thought Trump was anti-war.
tl;dr Trump indeed bad. The issue isn't that Trump good but that acting like Trump is the worst person in American politics or a root cause of the current problems is rather bizarre.
