Fair enough. You're not wrong. The system is decrepit. However, the author's angle is that Trump is somehow uniquely troubling and in need of removal. The American voting public may've elected an old money New York Know Nothing gasbag with a proud family tradition of KKK membership, but let's not forget this president saved the republic by immediately stopping the loathsome, rule-by-corporate-profits TPP once he was sworn in. It's not like this vote settled nothing. Whether the hypothetical alternative is Pence or Clinton or Orrin Hatch, all I'm saying is things could be worse.

It can always be worse. I learned a while ago to never say it can't get worse. That's a challenge to the Universe, and it always takes it.
