In 2016 it was the novelty of electing someone as 'outside' as Trump, who wasn't going to play by the rules, was going to drain the swamp and fix Washington, and was going to make America great again.

Well, he ain't got that going for him anymore. For every time he's shown to be anti-same as it ever was, he's proved to be same as it ever was. Big business is thriving, normal folks are footing the bill, and there's more flat out crooks in his admin than any other in TV history. Even Nixon.

Even Asians aren't getting excited about enfranchising Asians.

So hilarious when old men hang onto a hairstyle for way too long.

No, he's just not a child who thinks the idea of "reparations" has any real world applicability. The fact that Harris and others have already done this is greatly troubling when we know that it's a complete fantasy that could never be delivered upon.

Plus, social justice doesn't mean anything by itself. Provide some context in how it would relate to an actual campaign message that has something quantifiable attached to it.
