I think he's being sarcastic.



I mean, it's 2018, who the hell knows?

Poe's law needs a grim reaper like avatar, ruining your karma when you thought you were making a joke.


Partly correct.

If you try to measure Trump by some conventional, objective-reality based means, he is IMO, probably the worst president America's ever had.

But people didn't vote for him based on such reasons and his supporters don't judge him on such metrics. Trump is a subjective feeling and he makes his base feel pretty great, so...

How about "lies per word spoken"? How about "rationality of propositions ranked by economic analysis"? How about "number of personal lawsuits and investigations incurred per minute"? Any of those work for you?


I added an "IMO" for clarity. And yeah, I could supply a long list. This list could include items such as "climate change" and "foments domestic terrorism".

The point is, any such list will be based on assumptions that Trump opponents and supporters do not share.


Not sure how Trump can be the worst President re:climate change if it wasn't even on the radar of at least the first 35.


I thought that too.
