Do you think what we need is a competent administrator?
To do the job of competently administering things? Funnily enough, I do.
Fuck no, what we need a symbol to rally behind
Look at Trump… He doesn’t do shit
Case in fucking point!
We need a populist figure that will attract progressives who do know how politics work, and not the Democratic party picks, who are consultant brained cowards who resist change
Agreed on all counts.
Reagan was bad because he was the face of a bad movement
And because his charisma and fame far outstripped his competency and integrity.
His image made the movement possible just like Trump does now. Giving incompetent (at the ACTUAL job) figureheads a lot of power tends to cause a shitload of trouble for everyone else involved, and often themselves.
At the end of the day, bad things are bad and good things are good.
Which is why I would love for Michael Phelps to perform surgery on me! After all, good is good and he was REALLY good at propelling himself through liquid swiftly!
