another way to look at it is Gore or Bush2. Bush2 made enough bad decisions that it finally made a difference - two wars, deregulating that led to the financial crisis, alienating allies left and right. The economy tanked and many thousands of Americans and many hundreds of thousands of people lost their lives.
The analogy I like is a supertanker - you make a steering input...takes a while to make a difference. But once the steering input has been made, the turn will happen...just quite a bit down the road.
And more immediately, in a crisis we now have a completely unqualified president who everyone knows lies a lot and bluffs a lot. A crisis - and there is always a crisis - could escalate badly with such a poor president in charge.
JFC... SHUT UP already.
Just stop talking.
Nothing you say matters (proven over the last 2 years here on LRC).
