In one way, Mr. Trump was the most honest president we have ever had. The USA got a White House that exemplified his personal and business life prior to his presidency. No one should be surprised. Even at his "friend" comment.
Writing an anti-Trump book is a good way to make a lot of money. Writing anti-Trump articles articles on Medium gets a bigger Medium paycheck. But writing about a system of government that the likes of Mr. Trump could not rise very high is not all that profitable. Something is terribly wrong!
