    There might not be any need in continuing this.
     
    If the OP is satisfied that his question has been answered, I'll stop boring everyone else.
    I doubt very few of us get bored about campaign recaps. They are either a shining example, or a horrible lesson

    But we did know of his strong anti-intellectualism and the way he managed to run more than one casino into bankruptcy and the way he managed to make a New York real estate business have worse ROI than an index fund. We knew he didn't care for best practices and that this disdain hurt his operations.
     
     
    His fixation on the Central Park Five and his continuing insistence on their guilt after their exoneration clearly demonstrated his refusal to accept evidence.
     
     
    Uh . . . I can only assume that you, not being American, didn't pay much attention to his presidential campaign. His virulent racism was quite openly displayed. We watched him "inflame the social and racial divisions within American society to his own benefit" during that campaign. That was his main strategy.
     
     
    His disregard for the law was evident. I don't know why anyone would expect that he'd treat the Constitution any differently.
     
     
    He was well known as a fraudster and someone who refused to honor agreements when there was a financial benefit to be had. New York contractors made no secret of including a "Trump tax" in their dealings with him to ensure they got paid enough up front, because they knew he'd refuse to pay the rest of the bill after the work was done.
     
     
    I'll give you . . . half of this. It's true that we didn't know just how much power Russia has over him, but we did know he was in bed with them.
     
     
    Like the snake in the old story, we knew what he was when we picked him up. Anyone who expected him to dramatically change who he is and how he operates just because he got elected was a fool.

    Word is Fiona Hill told Devin Nunes he should stick to suing imaginary cows because he was more useless than a obstructed bowel in the nicest politest way possible. Otherwise everyone called has confirmed every known fact that Trump did hold aid as hostage for personal favors and that Nunes and Jordan should not try to run conspiracy theories in the middle of a proceeding and leave that to their counterpart in the senate Lyndsey Graham

    Fred Franks always cut things too close, but it was how adventuring worked. You had to chase the bad guy down some alley, deal with the monster with a sacred text, save the day even if it killed you. Knowing he was going to die just made Fred shed more of his caution as he went about his business. Heroing was not for the faint of heart, and Fred Franks, Parkour Jack, didn't know the meaning of fear
