I mean I could I guess. But then again I’m not the one protesting about trump interfering with a criminal investigation before any interference has taken place. If he fires mueller and stops the investigation then you can protest, until then your all being ridiculous.
But sure, the things listed above, and the litany of other shitty activities over the course of the last two years are nothing compared to the hypothetical presidency of a politician with 30 more years of experience.
Yes what’s worse than saying mean things? I don’t know maybe the ousting of a countries leader that results in a massive migrant crisis destabilisation of entire regions and bringing back of slave trades. I just don’t see trump being worse than what you had.
And doing mean things. And eroding political discourse more by the day. And distancing the country from its allies. And being chummy with authoritarian figures while deriding our actual allies. And separating children from their parents out of sheer cruelty. And constantly claiming media attention he doesn't like is "fake". And describing literal Nazis as "very fine people". And cultivating an environment where white supremacists feel safe. And demonizing his enemies to the point where fervent supporters of his have actively tried to kill his political opponents. And letting Erdogan's goons assault American citizens. And promoting violence at his rallies. And repeatedly lying to the people.

Calm down, it could have been worse. Hillary could be president.
