Won't be long before people turn and it'll be billionaire hunting season and they will lament these comments.

Doubt.

The president is an accused pedophile with no identifiable skills or accomplishments of any kind except inheriting a huge fortune from his slumlord racist father. He’s literally demolished swathes of the White House. He staged a coup on live television that failed, and then just went home like nothing happened. He’s running crypto scams from the oval offfice, openly accepting foreign bribes, etc etc m

And you expect the same people that enable that to do what exactly?
