The real question is why you would *ever* give an “unprincipled, narcissistic charlatan who doesn't give a damn about democracy” the benefit of the doubt.
And the answer is - not because you were foolish - but because it suited you. Because you lack integrity, decency and wisdom.

Just giving up and letting this happen is not an option. The time for fluffy political responses to this situation is over. We must #RESIST this rise in fascism. Capitulation will be the end of us. 3/3

I was a serving soldier during the Cold War and post Cold War period. I've lived worked and travelled extensively Central/East Europe since then. I'm horrified, like all decent people, by the rise of the far right across the globe. What's happened in the US will happen here in UK also! 2/#
