I've never in my life witnessed failure so celebrated

31. I'm not sure he's a failure for his base, even if they are harmed by his policies.

He has succeeded in making bigotry something you don’t have to hide and can even celebrate. Punching down can now be openly argued as the way of Nature or God without immediate dismissal. Stand up comics can have round tables where they can discuss the return of the R word. People who support civil rights can be termed subhuman left wing terrorists with very little media push back. Executive orders are now entertained as law even while being blocked by federal courts. Bothsidesism now includes MAGA against anyone else. I think there are around 30% that only see wins everywhere and many of the voters that see the losses still think he’s better than the alternative (e.g., high taxes, abandoning of meritocracy (or white privilege), Black Lives Matter, Portland, Pronouns, weak on crime, people speaking foreign languages, people not culturally normal).
