Actually Dr. Chump has advised ingesting an ineffective drug, getting skin cancer at a tanning salon and, if you are still alive, injecting poison into your body.

This is also an insult to medical research.

Are you so stupid?
The system is broken so that the change is not possible.
You are the stupid one and a pessimistic moron who is indifferent to improvements.

What is broken at t1 can always be changed for the better for t2 onward.
Yes, it can get worse.
And as American embraces tradition, things are less likely to change for the better.
FFS - just listen to yourslef!!! ROLF
You are the one that has the they can like it or lump it attitude, above.
I'm not indifferent to change; but you have shown yourself to be hostile to change.
Whilst it is broken no one has the power to change it.
Try and think about it for 3 seconds.
And it is exactly your attitude that guarantees the perpetuation of the status quo.
Your above are irrational points.

How can I be hostile to change when I stated the following;
"What is broken at t1 can always be changed for the better for t2 onward"
Btw, I am not insisting the change will definitely for the better but its possibility for the better.

As long as it is man-made it can be changed by man.
All humans are "programmed" with an algorithm for the potential to drive continuous improvements.
And as American embraces tradition, things are less likely to change for the better.
You are an omniscient God who can read into the future to be so sure things will not change for the better?

We're better across the board: when we succeed, when we fail, and especially when we fuck up.

Even at our worst, we're still better.

Better than what, or who, and in what way?

...and in order to maintain the tradition of being superior to anyone else in the art of the fuck-up the Ozark legions of the half demented will strive mightily to insure their lord and master will not be required to forgo the honor of parking his ass in the same chair, in the same office, in the same building as is unfortunately the case at this time. Another four years of Emperor Trump may even enshrine stupidity as a necessary requirement of a good citizen.

Congratulations on your head start! 8)

I know. It was meant as a rhetorical question. I was just being my old sarcastic self wondering if anyone who would vote for Trump again - and obviously there's a vast number who would - actually belonged to the human race.

Let's hope at least a few of them have decided to mainline Dettol, and burn themselves to a crisp under a sun ray lamp.

We began our downward spiral to the celebration of mediocrity when America’s pediatrician, Dr. Benjamin Spock, was discredited for writing every parent’s manual on the rules for childhood.

That lead to a loosening of the rules, and Permissive Parenting was born. Children were allowed to play and learn as they chose. I doubt that Einstein was that kind of wild child.

The Permissives grew up to become buddies with their offspring rather than parents who raised and guided their children. Needless to say, buddies are not taskmasters and so diligent study became rarer and rarer. Merit awards in school had to be replaced by participation trophies for everyone.

When these kids arrived at parenthood, they went even further in the lessening of excellence, responsibilities and citizenship. The parent became the child and the child became the parent.

The elite, once considered to be only those with advanced degrees, became anyone with a high school diploma and an average grade of B-minus. It became an embarrassment to be elite and a matter of social gracefulness not to use one’s intelligence.

We in America have been sliding down the slippery slope of ignorance since the 1960’s, when Dr. Spock was given up for chaos in parenting and school.

I, for one, wish to ekspress my graditude upon you congratulations. Thnx.

While I hope that a better candidate wins in the next election, Trump has been a mixed bag I think. I don't approve of his attitude toward science, however, I will say that our relations with N. Korea and the Russians have probably been better than they would have been under Clinton. He also kept us out of Syria for the most part, at least from escalating it. Judging from her call to bomb Syrian airfields during the crisis back in 2017, Clinton could have had us playing a game of chicken with the Russians had she been in charge.

Well yes, I imagine that as president Hillary would still have been annoyed by the Russians trying to throw the election Trump's way. You are playing an unnecessary game of chicken with Iran in case you forgot that one. Obama stayed out of syria, the Brits and hte Frenchies and the rest of Nato weren't up for it, no president was actually going to wade too depp into that one. Hilary might have enforced a no fly zone, in which case Russia would whine but stay out of it. Under Trump, as with Obama before, the Syrians went completely unpunished for using poison gas to kill their own citizens, so let's not give anyone too many props for that shitshow.

Obama kept out of Syria? Are you Rip Van Winkel? There was also no evidence in any direction of who used the poison gas. The US had the biggest motive--an excuse to meddle as usual and support its arms industry.
