They aren't random and it doesn't need to be interpreted as an insult; there is no direct implication that you yourself are an imbecile. I can't help it if that is how you choose to take it though.

Many of the things people suggest (perhaps mistakenly) Trump will revert are also things that were in full effect when America was supposedly great.

All indicators I've read suggest Trump will be a fairly liberal president on the social and domestic front.

But he's a nationalist and isn't going to help fulfill the liberal dream of a global socialist utopia, one which is seen by me to be premature, of dubious intent and destined to fail anyway. Let's not crucify the guy trying to prevent the cart from tipping off the cliff.

Not that any of that really matters to the majority of liberals who are crying and moaning. Trump isn't going to just ruin their dream of one world government, he's going to ruin everything. It's preemptive crying and moaning because it's their only defense against a multitude of problems that aren't going to be Hillary's to fail at solving. To be fair Mr. Berman doesn't take the same direct low road that is typical and rampant in social media, but he somehow seems to come to the same conclusions. Trump is going to ruin everything, but maybe not because trump is Hitler.

But the surety of liberal democrats has proven to be somewhat inaccurate recently. Perhaps they should take a step back and hold their breath a bit? If the citizenry has the political sophistication of a five-year old, my mind can't help but conjure images of young liberals throwing temper tantrums and bawling their eyes out because everyone can't just get along and do things their way.

Rahz, I actually shared your view after the election. Let's not crucify the guy before he's even inaugurated. But then I saw his cabinet picks and I lost a lot of hope. Now he's fucking with China, and I'm losing even more hope. Say what you want about the Chinese, the U.S.'s fucking with them is not a good idea for anyone in the world. It just doesn't look good to me at this point. So my sympathies lie with the perspective of Dr. Berman, for the most part.
