Bad Quote by Jamelle Bouie
“Everything that made Trump a bad president the first time around promises to make him an even worse one in a second term. When I say 'bad' here, I don't mean the content of Trump's agenda, as objectionable as it is, as much as I do his ability to handle the job of chief executive of the United States.”
