      You can say death from a thousand knives. Each knife represents jobs lost due to the ease of outsourcing, thanks to NAFTA. People lost their high-paying jobs, and they are now angry. The thing is, people don't know where to put their anger at. Right-wing media is constantly finding new ways to channel that anger without actually solving the source of that anger. Large segments of the population have lost their ability to form cohesive thoughts.

      if there is a minimum age requirement to be president (35 years old), then there definitely should be a maximum age requirement (probably the retirement age of 65-70 years old) and if you are over that age, you should be immediately kicked out!! How in the world nearly 80 year old, senile men are allowed to take on the most difficult job of running an entire country is absolutely unbelievable

    It just feels so odd how civil and professional both candidates were and this was only 12 years ago.

No professionalism to do the job right.

    • @dillydraws
      @dillydraws 4 години тому

      Speaking as a non american and just looking at this from the outside. A lot of this lost of professionalism started in 2016. Trump was the funnyman, he made memes and was entertaining and he had such charisma and personality that people loved him even though he wasn't professional, he got people mad and made people laugh and listen to him, like the whole "build a wall" thing. Then you had "right wing" content creators just making this whole "culture war" happen by making people mad, blaming everything on the woke left, making lies and misinformation about trans people to cause so much hate for people who just want to live their lives. Then you had companies making bad products and tried using LGBT people as a shield and you combine all these together to cause the current issue we have today. If those right wing youtubers stopped weaponizing people hatred and stopped targeting people, if Trump wasn't in the running for president and companies made better products, then more civil and professionalism would return to the world. Oh yea and get Biden into a nursing home.
