      Yeah

      He’s better than Putin in that a turd sandwich is better than a firehose full of raw sewage to the face

      But honestly, if someone put him in power, I’m 50/50 over whether he would just become the next Russian dictator

        50/50? I feel like there’s a 90% chance they will be and I think that’s a conservative estimate.
