I genuinely can't come up with something worse than the actual news. I see real news stories and think "wow, my anxiety riddled brain has been coming up with 'worst case scenarios' for months now, but this? I hadn't even thought of worrying about that."
Like I was not expecting to think "Hitler would be a better President." And for the record, as of a couple months ago I would have said that Hitler was as bad of a leader as any country could possibly have.
But not only is Trump every bit as xenophobic, power hungry, and 'above the law' as History's Worst Person (tm) but his administration is also selling off our national forests, dismantling our educational system, and literally defunding the usda and fda.
At least the nazis supported organic farming or whatever. THAT'S NOT A SENTENCE I SHOULD EVER BE ABLE TO SAY. And yet here we are.
The Republican party, ladies and gentlemen. Speedrunning "worst government ever."
