And yet I found it completely predictable.

Trump is so goddamn American: a boorish bully who thinks they’re the best when really he’s a fat idiot.

We absolutely deserve him. It’s a shame he’ll hurt other countries.

Anyone who has to stop the whole conversation to lecture the other participant about how they need to be showing more respect right now, is almost invariably a piece of shit.

People who genuinely earn respect don't feel the need to instruct people in how to show it and correct them on it if they aren't.
